SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

Dynatrace events require coordinated ingestion and correlation across multiple event types. This skill streamlines sending custom events, handling Davis and business events, and linking them with logs, problems, notebooks, and investigations. Always load dt-dql-essentials/SKILL.md first.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Event ingestion via the send_event tool and support for multiple event types (custom, Davis, business)
  • Correlation patterns with logs, problems, traces, and notebooks to create cohesive incident narratives
  • Tracking and auditing with correlation IDs, properties, and standardized payloads for deterministic notebook tiles
  • Polling, status checks, and integration with observability workflows to close the loop from event generation to investigation

Quick Start

Ingest a custom deployment event and correlate it with related logs and a notebook entry.

FAQPage Schema
How do I send custom events to Dynatrace and correlate them with logs?

This Skill orchestrates Dynatrace event ingestion for custom, Davis, and business events using the send_event tool, applying standardized payloads and correlation IDs to link events with logs and problems for cohesive incident tracking.

What is the difference between custom, Davis, and business events in Dynatrace?

Dynatrace events include custom events for user-defined thresholds, Davis events generated by the AI engine, and business events for tracking business-impact metrics. This Skill handles all three types with deterministic validation and standard payload fields.

Can I use Dynatrace notebooks to investigate correlated events and problems?

Yes, you can use Dynatrace notebooks to investigate correlated events and problems. This Skill applies correlation IDs and standardized payloads to generate deterministic notebook tiles for tracking and auditing incidents.

How do correlation IDs improve Dynatrace event tracking during incidents?

Correlation IDs improve Dynatrace event tracking by providing deterministic links between events, logs, problems, and traces. This creates a cohesive incident narrative and enables robust auditing across deployments and investigations.

What's the best way to orchestrate business events in Dynatrace observability workflows?

The best way to orchestrate business events in Dynatrace observability workflows is to apply standard event payload fields and integration patterns, ensuring deterministic handling, validation, and polling status checks to close the loop from generation to investigation.

Do I need to load dt-dql-essentials before sending Dynatrace events?

Yes, you need to load dt-dql-essentials/SKILL.md first before sending Dynatrace events, as it provides the foundational data query capabilities required to support event ingestion, correlation, and investigation workflows.
