If you're using a hybrid mobile agent (React Native, .NET Maui, etc.), refer to the platform-specific methods below.
Syntax
Java
NewRelic.setInteractionName(string $interactionName)Kotlin
NewRelic.setInteractionName(name: String?)Description
Set a new name for an interaction that is already being tracked by New Relic.
Use setInteractionName() to change the name of an interaction in an instrumented app.
For example, you have an interaction that is being reported under a single activity name, like FragmentActivity, or under an obfuscated name, like baseclass.a, and you want to rename the interaction to be more descriptive,. You could use setInteractionName at the beginning of each onCreate() method to change the name.
To create a new interaction, see startInteraction().
For general info on using this API, see the Android SDK API usage guide.
