Missing Management Zone in Davis event trigger

henk_stobbe — Wed, 08 Jan 2025 12:09:44 GMT

Hello, am I missing a MZ selection or is there a TAG I can use instead. Could also be that this is all and the rest is up to the workflow?

Unfortunately, Management Zone Filtering is not available for (Davis) Event Triggers in Workflows.

If you already know that you're looking for a specific tag, that would be an option.

If not, filtering should be doable in a follow-up task within the same Workflow with a DQL task (or maybe using "Run JavaScript"). Please have a look at https://community.dynatrace.com/t5/Dashboarding/Filter-by-Management-Zone-using-DQL/m-p/232272/highlight/true#M3548 for inspiration.

//i Christian thanks for your reply maybe below code can help someone else

//Based on effected entities, and returning ManagementZone if found in any

import { monitoredEntitiesClient } from "@dynatrace-sdk/client-classic-environment-v2";
import { execution } from '@dynatrace-sdk/automation-utils';

export default async function ({ execution_id }) {
const filterMZ = "***Fill in MZ name to filter***";
const ex = await execution(execution_id);
const eventData = ex.event();
console.log(eventData);
// Extracting entities from event
for (const My_entity of eventData.affected_entity_ids) {
console.log(`Processing element: ${My_entity}`);
try {
// Retrieve entity data from Dynatrace
let entityData = await monitoredEntitiesClient.getEntity({
entityId: My_entity
});

// Check if any management zone has the specific name
for (const zone of entityData.managementZones) {
console.log(zone.name);
if (zone.name === filterMZ) {
return filterMZ;
}
}
} catch (error) {
console.error(`Failed to retrieve data for element: ${My_entity}`, error);
}
}

return "";
}
