Third party synthetic api - world map visualisation

TorstenHellwig — Fri, 23 Apr 2021 11:23:15 GMT

Hi all,

I'm using the third-party synthetic api to monitor some devices (via ICMP and other protocols). I find no way to visualize the monitor on a world map like browser or http test although it includes location info.

The only way to put this on a dashboard in Dynatrace seems to be custom charts with a top list split by location.

Anyone an idea?

cheers,

Torsten

Currently the only way in Dynatrace to use the World Map tile on a Dashboard is through an Application:

Also in user sessions, Dynatrace paints the map based on your info.

If you were using Dynatrace Synthetic, you could use the following USQL to zoom in on the information:

SELECT continent,country, city FROM usersession WHERE userType IS "SYNTHETIC"

But apart from that, you don´t have other options. May be you can suggest an RFE on Ideas section. I would love to vote on it.

I created an RFE for this feature: https://community.dynatrace.com/t5/Dynatrace-product-ideas/Visualize-third-party-synthetic-tests-with-worldmap/idi-p/165013.
