Davis Anomaly Detection API - incomplete documentation

y_buccellato — Fri, 13 Feb 2026 15:37:15 GMT

The DAD API article from Dynatrace is not complete.
https://docs.dynatrace.com/docs/shortlink/set-up-anomaly-detectors-via-api#api-prerequisites

I follow it by the letter with a Platfrom (bearer) token with all permission listed and I got a message back:

"Error parsing parameter 'query'. Access to Grail is not authorized. Insufficient permission to access the tenant."

If I create a "wow" token that does it all I'm able to do the DAD PUT API. Which means that permisson listed in the docs are incomplete.

Hi @y_buccellato , I was having this problem as well

I raised a support request https://one.dynatrace.com/hc/en-us/requests/612737 on 10-Mar-2026, and then it started working for me on 13-Mar-2026, confirmed again today on the 16-Mar-2026. I got no feedback that anything has changed.

BTW, I found the problem trying to create with Terraform.
