APM v2 isn't showing my data

When an entity or a metric you expect isn't there, work from the symptom you see. Each row below maps a symptom to its most likely cause and the fix.

SymptomLikely causeFix
No entities at allThe Collector isn't running, or it exports to the wrong region endpoint.Check the Collector's exporter logs, and confirm the region endpoint.
A service is missingIts spans carry no service.name.Set the service.name resource attribute on the service's spans.
A service appears, but has no RED metricsThe spanMetrics preset is disabled.Enable it in your values.yaml - see the onboarding tutorial.
Databases are missingClient spans lack db.system or db.operation.name.Emit database client spans that follow the OpenTelemetry database semantic conventions.
An entity shows as UnmonitoredEvery health policy for it is disabled, so none is evaluating.Enable a policy on the entity's Health tab. See Service health.
An entity shows as N/AIts policies are enabled, but none has data in the selected time range or environment, for example an inactive service or an environment it doesn't send data from.Check that the service is sending spans, logs, or metrics for that environment and time range. See Service health.
Everything is present, but APM v2 is unavailableThe account isn't sending compact span metrics on services and databases.Migrate - see Using compact Span Metrics.
The Transactions tab is emptyThe transactions processor isn't enabled.See Enable the transactions processor.
The Runtime tab is empty on a Java serviceJVM runtime metrics aren't being exported.See Send JVM metrics.

Still stuck?​

If data is flowing but a specific tab stays empty, open the entity's drilldown - a tab with no data names the signal it needs and links to its setup. For anything else, contact support@coralogix.com.
