I am using appdynamics for the first time (trial account). I have created a .NET app in AppDynamics portal and followed the steps as mentioned while creating the application (also check the video).
1. I have also installed the .NET agent on my Laptop.
2. Create sample applications (.NET Core) and hosted in IIS. Generate some load for testing.
3. Agent connection was successful.
Issue: I still cannot see any data/statistics on the application dashboard.
Did I miss anything?
Solved! Go to Solution.

There are a handful of issues that could be stopping the app from reporting but since it is a .NET Core app in IIS, the first thing to check would be if the app is running In-Process or Out-Of-Process. I suspect that the web application is running out-of-process and hosted by dotnet.exe process. If that is the case, you will need to configure the web application as a standalone application.
The following sample configuration demonstrates how to instrument a .NET Core standalone application hosted by the dotnet.exe :
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<appdynamics-agent xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xmlns:xsd="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema">
<controller host="mycontroller.mycompany.com" port="8090" ssl="false">
<application name="My Business Application" />
</controller>
<machine-agent />
<app-agents>
<IIS>
<applications />
</IIS>
<standalone-applications>
<standalone-application executable="dotnet.exe" command-line="MyApp.dll"> //command-line option instructs the agent to monitor only "MyApp"
<tier name="DotNet Core Tier" />
</standalone-application>
</standalone-applications>
</app-agents>
</appdynamics-agent>
Here is a link to our documentation about setting up standalone applications:
Also, here is a link to the Microsoft docs about the Hosting models for ASP.NET Core if you need help determining what hosting model is set for your application.

Yes, After .NET Core application, I have tried .NET Framework application. I can see the telemetry of .NET Framework application.
Thanks for your help.
