Private Synthetic Monitoring: Kubernetes Location

Amarjit — Wed, 21 Aug 2024 12:33:06 GMT

I have set up a ActiveGate in the Kubernetes cluster and it is connected to the Dynatrace cluster as per status.

I want to execute a Browser monitor script in this activegate while recording the application and playing locally i am able to successful execute the script.

But the same when i am executing via the private location running in kubernetes cluster i get the Unauthorized error.

Could you suggest if i need to perform any additional steps

At what step is this monitor failing? If it's at the first one, then I suspect you need to add HTTP Authentication details in, or possibly the machine you are using doesn't have access allowed to the site and may need to be added to a list of allowed IPs/ machines etc. If it's after you enter the password, then I would try a curl to the same url which includes the username and password. You can find some helpful curl commands here

Hi @Amarjit

for authorization issues either:

Using an authorized user account (UN & PW ) which is actually configured within the app itself.
You can create authorization header to avoid such failures.

Another way is create a credential vault with the authorized access credentials (UN && PW) and save it in credential vaults, this issue should be resolved.

KR,
