How to add a multidimensional analysis chart to a dashboard?

How to add multidimensional analysis charts to a dashboard? I get only the "save to service" option for these charts but I want to add them to my dashboard.

We are aware of the current limitation and are investigating how to best resolve it. Stay tuned for updates on our blog in the coming months.

There also is a RFE for this.

This RFE exists for a year. The current opportunities of a dashbording even for 10% do not cover what was possible in AppMon. (Web & Client)

In the next months a lot of additional functionality is coming out in regards to dashboards. See this post for some of the features:

I agree with Alexander! Dashbording is quite poor. Customer asks us if it is possible to use ELK Kibana. Please dont kill me for mentioning ELK here 🙂

Sure, compared to appmon there are quite a few features missing in regards to dashboarding, a lot has happend in die latest versions though.

The RFE is 9 months old, but only has as many votes. If you come across missing features vote for it! That helps the PMs with priorization.

please see https://community.dynatrace.com/spaces/483/dynatrace...

Things have evolved since our last statement. We'll introduce a possibility to "subscribe" to metrics/request attributes of a multidimensional analysis chart to have that subscribed metric available for charting and on dashboards. This might come to the product as early as end of Q2 this year.

Thanks @Patrick H. and @Michael L. for standing our ground here! 🙂

There was an obvious divide between AppMon's and Dynatrace's dashboarding capabilities in the past. This was a deliberate shift of paradigms. In the last couple of months we did introduce a number of important features to Dynatrace dashboards and have some big ones coming up in the next couple of months.

Following Mike's and Patrick's lead, please leave your feedback in the dashboard section of the forum, so we don' miss any of your input: https://community.dynatrace.com/spaces/483/dynatrace-product-ideas/idea/181318/planned-enhancements-for-custom-dashboards.html

Significant limitations should already be a thing of the past and I'd even predict that in 6 to 9 months from now, your evaluation will have shifted completely. That should be something to look forward to.

Nobody will kill you for that. In some specific scenarios we'd even advise you to do so. If you for instance wanted to build highly custom reports, you may consider leveraging our dedicated APIs. Nevertheless, for the 80 percent use cases, Dynatrace dashboards will suffice.

Speaking of APIs, we have major improvements in the pipeline in that regard as well!

hi Michael, any idea if this is coming still?

Any forecast of adjustment in this limitation?

Does it give any news about Multidimensional Graphs on Dashboards?

Re: How to add multidimensional analysis chart to dashboard

This use case has been covered using the Custom Metrics:

Once you create your MDA, you have the possibility to click on "Custom Metric". Once it is created, you can put it on a dashboard. NOTE: Custom Metrics are limited and related to licenses. You can check how many of them you can create under your License Details.

Now, Early adopter. That can pin on the dashboard.

Does not work with filters added

Re: How to add multidimensional analysis chart to dashboard

uros_djukic1 — Fri, 03 Dec 2021 09:25:53 GMT

Hi John,

In order to answer at all, via custom metrics we can create specifical query (with dimension and filters belong to selected metrics) or we can also use "markdown" directly into dashboard and copy/paste mda link.
It is true it exists a filter limitations into "mda" during the custom metric creation. For instance hierarchy filters, median aggregation.

However, it exists workaround you can by now use request attribute as filter and create your custom metrics, you can also create "mda" for database instance, and not forget the excellent data explorer it offers you new possibilities thanks to SLO and code tab !
You can create new metrics in that way and generate custom alerts too.

I want to track requests that all called from one endpoint to another. You're saying, I would need to define a request attribute for those particular requests and use that as a filter?
