Get alerts when a new Host goes online with Dynatrace Agent.

Hello, I would like to know if their is a process that could notify when a Host/Docker comes online with Dynatrace Agent and start reporting. This is to help the DynaTrace Admin / Management to see current available licenses.

Thanks

You can use the Smartscape and topology API and fetch the list of hosts. Each host has the firstSeen attribute attached which shows when Dynatrace did discover the component the first time.

Thank you @Wolfgang B. this is very helpful, but I need to develop another process that parses this information and send out email.
