Hi,

I have a script which is executed on the DB and the output is exported to an excel file and then gets emailed to us. Is there a way to send teh output of that script directly to Dynatrace managed. Like creating a dashboard and it outputs the results on a tile.

Thanks,

Amarpreet

Hello, you have to send it to dynatrace as custom measures (not xls file, you have to prepare proper json payload and send it over API).

[https://www.dynatrace.com/support/help/dynatrace-a…](https://www.dynatrace.com/support/help/dynatrace-api/environment/timeseries-api/manage-custom-metrics-via-api/)

Then you should be able to chart them.
