Change activegate that custom extension is running on via API call

[desjardd]

Hi all I'm trying to find the way to control which Activegate a custom activegate extension is pointing too. (Basically want to change which AG its "live" on should that AG have an issue or go under maintenance/etc and find a way to automate this process)

We found this URL https://www.dynatrace.com/support/help/dynatrace-api/configuration-api/extensions-api/put-instance/?... which looks like it may handle this. 

Anyone done this? Looks like that would be how just look for all the endpoints running on AGxxxx and point them to AGyyy?

Thanks everyone,

Dan

That's exactly how to do it. Simply set the activeGate parameter to the other ActiveGate and you're good to go. Make sure that the extension exists on both ActiveGates.
