• Ensures the AppDynamics agent doesn't lose track of a transaction during complex flow and api calls due to mule's reactor framework
• Collects the flow name, start time, and processors called for each transaction and uploads them to the data collectors
• Detects artifact deployments and submits events for installation and startup of the artifact, and even includes a call stack when an API fails to start.

• Agent version 21.4+
• Mulesoft version 4.3.0+
• Java 8

• Copy AppD-MuleAgentTracer-2.1.jar file under <agent-install-dir>/ver.x.x.x.x/sdk-plugins
• OPTIONALLY: add the following config options as well to the wrapper.conf

  wrapper.java.additional.92=-DAppDynamicsForceMulesoftStatisticsCollection=false
  wrapper.java.additional.93=-DAppDynamicsFlattenNameMulesoftStatisticsCollection=false

• Restart the mule JVM
• Edit MuleMetricCollection.properties file in <agent-install-dir>/ver.x.x.x.x/sdk-plugins to use the flow statistics white list and black list properties. Some organizations have thousands of flows and will not want to monitor all of them, this feature may or may not be needed for your deployment

 com.appdynamics.mulesoft.agent.metric.blackListRegex=regex test # to skip collection on match
 com.appdynamics.mulesoft.agent.metric.whiteListRegex=regex test # to collect on match else skip (applied after blacklist)

Flow data may come back in ways that are not intuitive to the developers creating flows and subflows. A review of this reference may help before considering something a "bug" https://docs.mulesoft.com/mule-runtime/4.3/about-flows

add this node property to mulesoft nodes: max-analytics-collectors-allowed=5000 (2000 is default, but that isn't enough in large environments)
