Configuring the stand-alone Node.js data collector for on-premises applications
If you installed the Node.js application in on-premise environment, you must configure the Node.js data collector to collect information about the Node.js application.
Before you begin
- Make sure that your Node.js application can run successfully locally. The stand-alone Node.js data collector can monitor Node.js V8.0.0 and future fix packs, V10.0.0 and future fix packs, and V12.0.0 and future fix packs.
- Download the data collector package from IBM® Marketplace. For detailed instructions, see Downloading your agents and data collectors.

What to do next
- You can verify that the monitoring data for your application is displayed in the Cloud APM console. For instructions on how to start the Cloud APM console, see Starting the Cloud APM console. For information about using the Applications editor, see Managing applications.
- To view topology information for your API Connect environment, enable transaction tracking. For more instructions, see description of the KNJ_ENABLE_TT variable in Customizing the Node.js data collector for on-premises applications.
Remember: To add your application to the Cloud APM console, choose Node.js Runtime
in the application editor.
