sp_helptracertokenhistory (Transact-SQL)
Returns detailed latency information for specified tracer tokens, with one row being returned for each Subscriber. This stored procedure is executed at the Publisher on the publication database or at the Distributor on the distribution database.
- [ @publication= ] 'publication'
-
Is the name of the publication in which the tracer token was inserted. publication is sysname, with no default.
- [ @tracer_id= ] tracer_id
-
Is the ID of the tracer token in the MStracer_tokens (Transact-SQL) table for which history information is returned. tracer_id is int, with no default.
- [ @publisher= ] 'publisher'
-
The name of the Publisher. publisher is sysname, with a default of NULL.
Note
This parameter should only be specified for non-Microsoft SQL Server Publishers.
- [ @publisher_db= ] 'publisher_db'
-
The name of the publication database. publisher_db is sysname, with a default value of NULL. This parameter is ignored if the stored procedure is executed at the Publisher.

sp_helptracertokenhistory is used in transactional replication.
Execute sp_helptracertokens (Transact-SQL) to obtain a list of tracer tokens for the publication.
A value of NULL in the result set means that latency statistics cannot be calculated. This is because the tracer token has not been received at the Distributor or one of the Subscribers.
