Access Main Technology of individual processes

[Javin_Singh]

Within a DQL query, I am trying to filter processes based on the "Main Technology" of each process group, e.g. "Dynatrace" and "Elasticsearch". However, I can't seem to find the variable containing the "Main Technology" of each process.

I have tried looking for it in the following with no luck: 

dt.entity

dt.entity.process

dt.entity.process_group

dt.entity.process_group_instance

But when viewing the process itself in the Dynatrace GUI, the "Main Technology" is stated plainly:

Could any one tell me what variable I should call in DQL to access the "Main Technology" information please?

Hey @Javin_Singh , see if this quick dql will serve your purpose:

fetch dt.entity.process_group_instance
| fieldsAdd softwareTechnologies, processType
| filter matchesPhrase(softwareTechnologies, "DYNATRACE")

This will list you all Process Group Instances that have "DYNATRACE" as a software technology field.

As a tip, remember you can always use the 'describe' command to try and find out what you can/should call on the DQL query wit fieldsAdd 🙂 I discovered dt.entity.process_group_instance has a softwareTechnologies field because I used:

describe dt.entity.process_group_instance

And that gave me a table with all the fields I could search for. You should definitely try it out yourself as it can be very useful to refine your dql dashboards and make them fancy.

Thanks Pedros, this worked.
