Processes

The Processes API enables enumeration of the processes that dotnet monitor can detect and allows for obtaining their metadata (such as their names and environment variables).

[!NOTE] Process information (IDs, names, environment, etc) may change between invocations of these APIs. Processes may start or stop between API invocations, causing this information to change.

Operation Description
Get Process Gets detailed information about a specified process.
Get Process Environment .NET 5+ Gets the environment block of a specified process.
.NET Core 3.1 Not supported.
List Processes Lists the processes that are available from which diagnostic information can be obtained.

The dotnet monitor tool is able to detect .NET Core 3.1 and .NET 5+ applications. When connecting to a .NET Core 3.1 application, some information may not be available and is called out in the documentation.
