Dynatrace UI Menu Access Control

echwallah — Mon, 14 Aug 2023 08:41:01 GMT

Is it possible to disable Menu Access control from specific users and Groups within Dynatrace.

We have a client who has a Management and Executive team and there want some menus like Data Explorerr, Smartscape among others to be invisible to these teams.

Please let me know how we can achieve tjis nd whether DT can implement this from their backend

The only segment of the menu that can be removed is the entries under 'Manage' that I am aware of with using the Policy Schemas and such. If this is needed I recommend tossing in an RFE: https://community.dynatrace.com/t5/Product-ideas/idb-p/DynatraceProductIdeas

Thanks @ChadTurner but this does not serve the purpose. We need menus like DatA explorer and other technical menus or Apps on the New Dynatrace to be invisible for executive teams. I have raised an RFE for this.

I also do not see the need for an Executive or regional Management to see SmartScape among other Menus. We should be able to control this

I think you can use IAM policies to get fine-grained access control, but I highly recommend using it with the Gen3 DT Platform.

@echwallah can you post the link to that RFE? Would like to give it a kudo, as I do agree that this would be a very nice feature!

@cesarsaravia you seem to not understand this requirement. IAM Policies only apply to Setings Schema. What I mean here is also to control other menu visibility like Smartscape, Data Explorer among others not relevant to some teams
