Dynatrace Alert

Axonius supports a Dynatrace Alert as an event in a workflow.

Use a Dynatrace Alert to trigger a workflow in Axonius. When Axonius receives a problem notification from Dynatrace, the notification payload data is parsed and used in subsequent workflow nodes.

Configuration Prerequisites

Before adding a Dynatrace Alert event to a workflow for the first time (or after the URL has changed in the System Settings), you must do the following:

• In Axonius: Configure an Dynatrace webhook in Axonius System Settings so that Dynatrace can send notifications to Axonius via this webhook.
• In Dynatrace: Configure Dynatrace to send notifications to the Axonius Dynatrace webhook.
