Hi, I have several API’s that take parameters from the URI.

Examples:

api/visit/1234566

api/visit/123456/create

So when I go to purepath or dynamic request I have hundreds of different request that are not grouped because of this parameters.

Is there any way in Dynatrace Managed to remove those parameters to group those request like so:

api/visit

api/visit/create

Hi, I think web request renaming will work here. You can also use regex to specify condition.

Correct, this is the correct place to name your requests. If you have multiple services which need the requests to be renamed, you can also use global request naming rules.
