RemotePlugin package pnfo (Python API documentation)

Hello,

I'm missing some essential plugin API documentation. I need to get some plugin meta-information like the endpoint an execution run is using.

I found that a RemotePlugin provides get_activation_context() to get the activationcontext which sounds like what I need. However there is no documentation for activation context in the official docs:

https://dynatrace.github.io/plugin-sdk/_apidoc/ruxit_remote.api.html#ruxit-api-base-plugin-module

Can someone be so kind and maybe provide more information. On what/how an Activation Context can be used (package, fields, getters....)...and maybe update the documentation?

Thanks,
Reinhard

Hi Reinhard,

I will forward the documentation request to the plugin team. To answer the specific question regarding endpoint: go with self.activation.endpoint_name
