With the [Audit Log enabled](https://docs.dynatrace.com/docs/manage/data-privacy-and-security/configuration/audit-logs), you can query the Audit logs using [the Audit Logs API](https://docs.dynatrace.com/docs/dynatrace-api/environment-api/audit-logs/get-log). If you filter by

```markup
eventType("CREATE"),entityId("ME_SYNTHETIC_TEST","ME_HTTP_CHECK","MULTIPROTOCOL_MONITOR")

```

that will give you only newly created Synthetic monitors (Browser Monitors, HTTP Monitors, Network Availability Monitors).

If you have a managed installation, you can ingest the&nbsp;audit.0.\*.logs and then [alert on the log events.](https://docs.dynatrace.com/docs/shortlink/lma-log-events)&nbsp;  
This optin is not available for SaaS. As a workaround, you can get the logs/entries from API and ingest them as logs for your own tenant afterward, but this would cost DDUs.
