View service requests by timer name from tools like hp loadrunner in Dynatrace SaaS

[shawn_g]

Has anyone been able to create a view similar to Appmon's Tagged web requests dashlet for viewing synthetic transactions? In this case using something like HP Loadrunner scripts. I know the ability to create Request Attribute tagging is available so I wonder if we could leverage that functionality to show only requests during a performance test.

Thank you for your help.

Hi Shawn, Am also looking for a similar solution /feature in the SaaS model to integrate the Loadrunner transactions with Dynatrace. Do post in this thread if you get some lead . Thanks

I am not sure if this is still a need but I was able to accomplish this, somewhat, by adding a Request Attribute for the "HTTP Request Header" and the Parameter is "x-dynatrace". Then I did the optional splitting further by setting the split to ";" and using the following regex to extract the values "\w+=(.*+)".

This allowed me to get a view of the test names and values and how they applied to the transactions. It also allowed me to do filtering based on their names. Not perfect, but it was a start.

hi all. I wrote a blog and recorded a video on how to use Dynatrace in load testing environments leveraging the same x-dynatrace HTTP header as we used to use in AppMon. Here is the blog: https://dynatrace.com/blog/load-testing-redefined-...

and here is the youtube video that goes along with it: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kwH64up-UAs&t=13s&...
