Syntax
NewRelic.recordBreadcrumb(string $Name, map<string, object> $eventAttributes)Records a MobileBreadcrumb event, useful for crash analysis.
Requirements
Agent version 5.13.0 or higher.
Description
This call creates and records a MobileBreadcrumb event, which can be queried with NRQL and in the crash event trail. Mobile breadcrumbs are useful for crash analysis; they should be created for app activity that may be helpful for troubleshooting crashes.
In addition to whatever custom attributes you choose, the event will also have associated session attributes. Unlike with using setAttribute, adding attributes to a breadcrumb event adds them only to that event; they are not session attributes.

|---|---|
string | Required. The name you want to give to the breadcrumb event. |
map<string, object> | Optional. A map that includes a list of attributes of the breadcrumb event. Create attributes for any event descriptors you think will be useful. |
Return values
