How to configure alerts from two mobile apps to Slack?

[NicoleMT]

Hi everyone,

I’m working on configuring Dynatrace to send alerts specifically from two mobile applications directly to Slack. I have a few questions:

1. Should I first create a Management Zone for these two mobile apps?

2. What kind of rules should I define to make sure the Management Zone includes only those apps?

3. Once I have the zone, how do I set up the alert so that only events from those applications are sent to a specific Slack channel?

I’d really appreciate any guidance or examples you can share.

Thanks in advance!

Hi @NicoleMT 

To complete the setup, please follow the steps below:

1. Create a Management Zone (MZ)

   • Define a rule using Mobile apps (Application Entity) on Mobile apps

   • Set the condition: Mobile app name equals (as shown in the attached image)

2. Create an Alert Profile

   • Base it on the Management Zone you just created.

3. Set Up a Problem Notification

   • Choose the notification type as Slack

   • Enter the Slack Webhook URL in the URL field.
