HTTP monitor: why can't I execute HTTP monitor from external location?

Platform Synthetic Monitoring
1

Hello,

in my managed Dynatrace environment I installed some synthetic-enabled ActiveGate with the chromium extension to also simulate single-Url Browser monitor and Browser clikpath.

Usually when i configure the location for single-Url Browser monitor and Browser clikpath I have my private location and all the other public locations from Dynatrace.

If I configure an HTTP monitor I only have my private location. Why is that?

(I apologize if I missed something from the docs)

Regards!

Hi Yann!

It isn’t possible to run HTTP monitors on our public locations… yet. Don’t worry though - we’re working on public locations support for HTTP monitors and it’s coming really soon. Stay tuned for further updates on our Dynatrace blog.
