Import WPM recordings as transactions

If you recorded a transaction on a remote system that cannot connect to the SolarWinds Platform server, you can transfer recordings as files and then import them on the Add Transaction page in the SolarWinds Platform Web Console.

The way to save recordings locally depends on which WPM recorder was used to create them.

  • In the Web Transaction Recorder, click Open > Save locally.
  • in the Deprecated WPM Recorder, click File > Export.

By default, WPM recordings are saved in the Downloads folder.

After saving a recording to your local drive, transfer the file by e-mail, FTP, flash drive, or some other method. After transferring the file, use the Import command on the Add Transaction page to add the recording to the SolarWinds Platform server.
