Hi Guys,

please let me know if there is any option to customize alert message in dynatrace managed/SAAS using some variables .

For example , i want to print threshold value or server hostname in an alert along with a custom text that should appear in all alerts of that type.

Thanks

Himanshu Mor

HI Himanshu,

Not sure about the other option but If you are notifying through email, in the Subject field, type text and/or insert placeholders that will be automatically populated with relevant problem details, such as problem ID, state, or impact

[https://www.dynatrace.com/support/help/integration…](https://www.dynatrace.com/support/help/integrations/problem-notification/how-do-i-set-up-email-based-problem-notifications/?_ga=2.10502967.244291139.1529771374-1571763856.1528533889)

Tag the entities on which you want to apply this alert , then create a alerting profile for a specific alert type and include the tag . Select the alerting profile when setting up notification.

Hope this will help
