Synthetic API does not give aggregated availability

Synthetic API gives availability by location, but not the aggregated value. I think the following image explains the idea:

Hi Antonio, did you have a look at the metrics API? I think this should be possible with the merge transformation. See https://www.dynatrace.com/support/help/shortlink/api-metrics-v2-selector#merge-transformation for details.

Kind regards, Philipp

Yes, you are right!. Just changed my script and it's not splitting the value any more.

Now, this is not an RFE anymore. Can this be changed to a question?

I mainly use v2 of the API:

https://www.dynatrace.com/support/help/dynatrace-api/environment-api/metric-v2/

One example would be like the following, which is for yesterday's values (mind you have to put your environment as yyyyyy and your API as zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz):

curl -X GET "https://yyyyyy.live.dynatrace.com/api/v2/metrics/query?metricSelector=builtin%3Asynthetic.browser.availability.location.total&resolution=Inf&from=1589760000000&to=1589846400000" -H "accept: application/json; charset=utf-8" -H "Authorization: Api-Token zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz"

@Balamurugesh,

The curl is the one I referenced in my post on 19 May 2020. To do what I was asking for, you have to add the merge transformation, as referenced in the link that Philipp_Kastner referenced.
