Dynatrace Integration

Caveat: each of the following integration directions was based on the UI when it was written. The UIs may change by the time you read this, so UI updates are beyond the scope of these articles. Please go to the integration target sites for their latest information on integration directions.

With the Dynatrace integration, you can access stack monitoring information provided by the DynaTrace platform.

When Dynatrace integration has been enabled for a check, the check details view will contain information provided by the Dynatrace client installed on the application server.

Setup

The Dynatrace integration is configured by enabling Dynatrace in the application and checking the “Enable Dynatrace PurePath” option in the Edit Check menu.

When this Dynatrace PurePath option is enabled, a request header is added (overriding any existing header).

Checks can then access the X-dynaTrace response header containing the PurePathID.

The request header contains Dynatrace information:

    X-dynaTrace: ID={unique check run GUID};NA={check name, (%CHECK_NAME%)}

Dynatrace responds with a response header containing the PurePathID:

    X-dynaTrace:PT=0;PA=78476734;SP=Monitoring;PS=-1701008692.
