Hi,
I want to get the ID on alertingprofile.
I use Dynatrace environment API / Settings - Objects.
In the output of [GET] /settings/objects I have objectId but not the alertingprofileid. How to get it?
{ "objectId": "XXX", "summary": "Default", "searchSummary": "Default", "created": 1651564175176, "modified": 1651564175176, "author": "default settings creation", "updateToken": "XXX", "scope": "environment", "schemaId": "builtin:alerting.profile", "schemaVersion": "8.3", "modificationInfo": { "deletable": false, "modifiable": true, "movable": true, "modifiablePaths": [], "nonModifiablePaths": [] }, "value": { "name": "Default", "severityRules": [ { "severityLevel": "AVAILABILITY", "delayInMinutes": 0, "tagFilterIncludeMode": "NONE" }, { "severityLevel": "ERRORS", "delayInMinutes": 0, "tagFilterIncludeMode": "NONE" }, { "severityLevel": "PERFORMANCE", "delayInMinutes": 30, "tagFilterIncludeMode": "NONE" }, { "severityLevel": "RESOURCE_CONTENTION", "delayInMinutes": 30, "tagFilterIncludeMode": "NONE" }, { "severityLevel": "CUSTOM_ALERT", "delayInMinutes": 0, "tagFilterIncludeMode": "NONE" }, { "severityLevel": "MONITORING_UNAVAILABLE", "delayInMinutes": 0, "tagFilterIncludeMode": "NONE" } ], "eventFilters": [] } }
In Dynatrace configuration API / Alerting Profiles it is possible to get alertingprofileid but it is deprecated :
{ "values": [ { "description": "Dynatrace entity 1 for the REST API example", "id": "6a98d7bc-abb9-44f8-ae6a-73e68e71812a", "name": "Dynatrace entity 1" }, { "id": "ee70f7d3-9a4e-4f5f-94d2-c9d6156f1618", "name": "Dynatrace entity 2" }, { "id": "8cdabe77-9e1a-4be8-b3df-269dd6fa9d7f" } ] }
Any suggestion?
Thx
Solved! Go to Solution.
You can still use the deprecated method, but the Alert Profile ID is also present in the URL when you select the alert profile form the UI. If that's not possible for you, you can leverage the new API via a 2 part call:
Basically you check the Alert Profiles, find the one you want and grab the Object ID, not the alert profile ID from the URL, then take that Object ID and supply it in the the settings API for that Object ID and you'll have the data you seek
Thx @ChadTurner for the reply,
With the API I get value like you (objectID). But this value is différent to the id from the UI (alertingprofile).
I try to create "problem notifications" with the 2 value and I get the same result 😞
Is it possible to define alertingProfile with his name ?
Thx
Hi,
If you are using Monaco, you can create an alerting profile, and create a problem notification linked to that alerting profile as a reference.
Is this your use case?
Best regards
Hi @AntonPineiro ,
Yes it is my use case. For profil notification is it possible to define reference without ID? With name of alerting profile?
We have a CMDB with project and we want to use monaco to create SLO, alerting profile and problem notif automaticaly.
Thx
Hi,
If you create all entities (alerting profile, problem notification, etc...) using Monaco, maybe it would be easier.
Let me provide you an example. You can create an alerting profile and you choose ID for that alerting profile, a human name:
configs:
- id: XXXXXXXX
type:
settings:
schema: builtin:alerting.profile
scope: environment
config:
name: XXXXXXXX
template: XXXXXXXX.json
And when you create a problem notification, you can reference that alerting profile ID:
configs:
- id: XXXXXXXX
type:
settings:
schema: builtin:problem.notifications
scope: environment
config:
name: XXXXXXXX
parameters:
alerting_profile_id:
project: alerting-profiles
configId: XXXXXXXX
configType: builtin:alerting.profile
property: id
type: reference
recipients:
template: XXXXXXXX.json
"configId" is a reference to id you had chosen defining alerting profile.
If you create everything with Monaco, maybe it would be easier. You have more ways to reference entities in Monaco, checking this.
Best regards
