Dashport - a tool to backup and/or clone dashboards between tenants

[rasmus_edgar_fi]

Since I missed a feature to sync dashboards between tenants I wrote one in golang:

https://github.com/Salling-Group/dashport

It can also backup dashboards.

Some of you might find it useful.

It has only been tested on Linux and with the tenants I have available.

I see @Uzair H. created an RFE for this feature:

You can also use the environment/Configuration API to export the Json data for the dashboard you are looking to duplicate in another environment. Then just run that Json in the post API for the desired environment.

Yes, indeed. And the Configuration API is exactly what dashport utilizes.

Hey Rasmus,

Thank you for posting this tool! I will give it a try cloning between our Production and UAT environment.

Appreciate you open sourcing tools like this.

Thanks

Hi Rasmus Edgar,

creating Dynatrace configuration backups and reusing this configuration on different environments is very important. We've missed such a feature for a long time and developed a tool called Composer to close this gap.

Please find our tool on the Dynatrace Hub https://www.dynatrace.com/hub/?query=composer 

Within a few minutes you can install Composer and set your Dynatrace configuration under version control.

Best regards

Josef
