Tracking custom requests

Is it possible to track custom requests using this SDK? I am thinking of something similar to C#'s SDK:

public void TrackRequest(string name, DateTimeOffset startTime, TimeSpan duration, string responseCode, bool success)

Link: https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/dotnet/api/microsoft.applicationinsights.telemetryclient#Microsoft_ApplicationInsights_TelemetryClient_TrackRequest_System_String_System_DateTimeOffset_System_TimeSpan_System_String_System_Boolean_

The reason I’m asking is that I have an API server which can receive requests via web sockets (not just HTTP), and I would like to track these requests as well.

Sorry! Re-reading this I may have closed too early. It looked like a question on how to do this that was resolved by using trackEvent and forked a feature request for auto collection.

We don’t today have a trackRequest that can be used without a request object, but it does sound like a fair ask to me. Re-opening with an enhancement tag

To answer your previous question, you can use the plain track method for this, but you must construct the telemetry envelope by hand. This will be easier in the next release as we’ll export the classes/types we use within the SDK to handle these data contracts.

No worries! And thank you for re-opening it. I’ll play around with the new SDK once it becomes available.
