Dynatrace SLO API "splitBy()" in metrics

joshua_brard — Thu, 20 May 2021 16:21:35 GMT

I'm pulling SLOs via the Dynatrace V2 API and I noticed inside the metricNumerator and Denominator there is splitBy() at the end. What exactly is this? Are the metrics selected still functioning properly?

Here is a part of the received JSON:

"metricNumerator": "builtin:service.errors.server.successCount:splitBy()",
"metricDenominator": "builtin:service.requestCount.total:splitBy()",

Thanks

Hi Joshua

There are optional parameters you can pass into the splitBy() field to break apart your requests by Process, User Action, Service, whichever metric is appropriate. Therefore you have a more granular approach. You'll just need to identify which is appropriate to build out your API request. These metrics are still working properly.

Good Luck -
