See the package ruxit.api.events. Example code is in the notifications_openstack_plugin.py, but I'm not sure if this is supported or not. <BR />Based on what I've seen, you should be able to send events of specific types (not alerts) that are attached to entities.

Those events take part within the Dynatrace AI correlation and causation process.</P><P>See my blog post here:</P><P>https://www.dynatrace.com/news/blog/define-custom-events-via-custom-plugins-or-the-dynatrace-api/ </P> Thu, 15 Feb 2018 08:18:05 GMT https://community.dynatrace.com/t5/Extensions/Can-a-OneAgent-plugin-be-used-to-create-custom-events/m-p/53886#M178 wolfgang_beer 2018-02-15T08:18:05Z https://community.dynatrace.com/t5/Extensions/Can-a-OneAgent-plugin-be-used-to-create-custom-events/m-p/53887#M179 <P>In addition to <A rel="user" href="#">@Wolfgang B.</A> answer, I think it should be possible to use the Event reporting API available in OneAgent SDK directly from plugin code.
