Events api v2

[gdp-d]

I have used dynatrace events api and got the follow response code 

{
    "reportCount": 1,
    "eventIngestResults": [
        {
            "correlationId": "59c8a191229f84df",
            "status": "OK"
        }
    ]
}

But I am unable to see any updates in logs and events dashboard in dynatrace.Am I looking in the correct place or are the custom events are logged somewhere else.For reference this request body I have used.

{
    "eventType": "CUSTOM_INFO",
    "title": "Loadtest start",
    "timeout": 30,
    "properties": {
        "Tool": "MyLoadTool",
        "Load per minute": "100",
        "Load pattern": "production"
    }
}

Hi,

Can you share which GET request are you using?

Are you and admin of the tool? If not then you will need to be given access to the default_events bucket where these custom events are stored. We ran into this same type scenario where an app team could not pull the data via dql.

I am the admin of the tool.I am using it as a single user.

what dql are you running? there are several ways of getting the data via dql. you can run something like the below, just as example

fetch events
| filter matchesValue(affected_entity_ids, "serviceID")

fetch events
| filter matchesValue(event.name, "Loadtest start")

I recommend that you assign the custom information to an entity (service, host, process_group, etc).

{
    "eventType": "CUSTOM_INFO",
    "title": "Loadtest start",
    "entitySelector": "type(service),entityName.equals(SERVICE-NAME)",
    "timeout": 30,
    "properties": {
        "Tool": "MyLoadTool",
        "Load per minute": "100",
        "Load pattern": "production"
    }
}
