Can we create a user in dynatrace managed without providing any email id? we can do this in Appmon where we need to provide user name along with password and it does not require any authentic email id to create a user.

The purpose of creating user id in dynatrace managed to save dashboard with this id without worrying about the ownership and can be handled by multiple resources.

In general you can't, but it's not issue anymore about dashboard ownership becasue from API you have admin rights over those dashboards. You can always make clone to assign it to some user and then delete old one.

For know I suggest technical email_id which will be owner of those dashboards.

That’s not recommended as such a user won’t be able to receive email notifications. Moreover, email is used to set the password.

To sum up, not possible and not planned to support now. What’s the issue really to provide an email?
