Set a different metric to API poll if synthetic fails or succeeds

runatyr — Thu, 18 Dec 2025 10:52:46 GMT

Hello:

We have several different synthetic checks to run against various websites.

That said, we have a 3rd party Dashboard tool we are looking to leverage for purposes of viewing the results.

We know the 3rd party tool can poll our Dynatrace API to retrieve results.

Ideally, the flow of thinking is this.

1) Run the synthetic in Dynatrace,

2) If the synthetic succeeds, set a value in Dynatrace for that synthetic that can be polled from the 3rd party dashboard with the Dynatrace API.

3) If the synthetic fails, set a different value in Dynatrace for that synthetic that can be polled from the 3rd party dashboard with the Dynatrace API.

The question I have is. Is this possible? How does one go about recording the results of the individual synthetic check in

Dynatrace to be polled through the API?

Hi,

You can get synthetic monitor status from API:
