API to tag another object than a service

[gautier_begin]

Hello,

In the documentation

https://www.dynatrace.com/support/help/dynatrace-a...

, it is possible to tag a service using an API.

I tried to do so with host without success (same command).

Is there a way to tag a host, process, application using API ?

Hi gautier,

You would have to use the api endpoint for the entity you want to assign the tag to.

So for host that would be: https://
{{Tenant}}.live.dynatrace.com/api/v1/entity/infrastructure/hosts/{entityid}

and then in the payload :

{
  "tags": ["myTagthroughAPI", "secondTag"]
}

Hope this helps.

KR,
Kristof

Kris,

That's failing, I get this error message: "code":404,"message":"HTTP 404 Not Found"

Sorry, I forgot the infrastructure word in the path. That's working fine.

Hello,

I tried for processes, no way to assign a tag.

api/v1/entity/infrastructure/processes/<proc_ID>

Not allowed HTTP method, expected one of [GET, OPTIONS]
