See [TransactionInterface](#api-transaction-interface) on how to customize a transaction.

### `ElasticApm::createErrorFromThrowable` [api-elasticapm-class-create-error-from-throwable]

Captures a throwable exception. This API:
* Captures an error as an exception
* Displays it in the ElasticAPM `Errors` screen
* Allows for easy tracking of caught exceptions.

For example:
```php
use Elastic\Apm\ElasticApm;

private function captureExceptionFromErrorMessage($message)
{
try {
throw new Exception($message);
} catch (Throwable $ex) {
ElasticApm::createErrorFromThrowable($ex);
}
}
```

The code above would allow for an error message to be tracked via an artificially created exception.
