Generic Entity within technologies screen

[patrik_steuer]

I have a remotely monitored Kafka broker that sends its metrics to my Dynatrace environment. I created a generic entity for this broker.

I would like to visualize the Kafka broker instances within the technologies screen. E.g. by defining a custom declarative process group rule. 

Is there any option to add a generic entity to the technologies overview?

Generic entities cannot be added to the technologies overview page.

I completely agree with what patrik_steuer described here. At the moment it's almost impossible to navigate to custom entities created by the Generic Entities framework making the UX a horrible nightmare. We intended to migrate from custom devices to generic entities, but our Product Management even blocked this migration due to the bad navigation experience. Even if Generic Entities cannot be visualized in the Technologies & Processes screen, Dynatrace Managed should provide any navigation path to such entities out of the box. I'm really surprised that Dynatrace can't do this simple thing.
