# Net::HTTP

[Net::HTTP](https://docs.ruby-lang.org/en/master/Net/HTTP.html) is the HTTP client built into Ruby's standard library. AppSignal instruments Net::HTTP requests automatically. No manual setup is required.

## Performance monitoring

Requests made with Net::HTTP appear in the event timeline of your application's performance actions as `request.net_http` events, showing the request method and host. They also appear in the "Slow API requests" performance panel, where you can review the requests your application makes to other services and the impact they have on its performance.

## Disabling the integration

To disable the Net::HTTP integration, set the [`instrument_net_http` config option](/ruby/configuration/options#option-instrument_net_http) to `false`.
