How to give dashboard requests name an alias?

thitiphans — Tue, 23 May 2023 13:12:32 GMT

Hi is there a way to change request name in dashboard for more understanding. Right now only way I found is to rename but that will also affect globally not only in dashboard.

Example

/api/payment/v1/submit >> Payment Submit
/api/customer/v1/verify >> Customer Verify

I can edit column name in dashboard table but not requests name. If it can edit via dashboard json, please give me an example.

Hi @thitiphans

no there is no way to do that, as you said, you can change the request name but it will affect the stored name in Dynatrace.

You can open RFE for this if you need it.

BRs.

It depends. If you can use this workaround then it's possible. Otherwise it's not possible.
There is a product idea maybe @zietho can provide an update if there are intentions to solve this generally.

Thank you for your workaround solution. but it didn't work for me in this case due it's limitation.

I may open RFE for this. I think alias would be good

@thitiphans did you open the Product Idea for your case? Can you share what happened in the matter of that topic? Thank you in advance.

no update on this one, it's not possible and we haven't planned anything there, given the relatively low demand until now. See what we are doing instead in our latest roadmap update.
