Uploading a file via activationSchema

[xBirahim]

Hi everyone,

I’m working with the Dynatrace Extension SDK and trying to understand the full capabilities of the activationSchema.json. Specifically, I’d like to know if it’s possible to define a field that allows users to upload a file during extension configuration.

The documentation I’ve found so far doesn’t list all possible field types or options for the activation schema. Has anyone seen a complete reference for this, or implemented file upload in their own extensions?

Any guidance or examples would be greatly appreciated!

Thanks in advance.

No — in Dynatrace Managed it’s currently not possible to automatically export dashboards to PDF on a scheduled interval (e.g. every hour). There is no API endpoint that supports scheduled or automated PDF exports of dashboards.

Available alternatives:

• You can enable anonymous access for a dashboard and share a public link, allowing users to view it without logging in.
• You can enable Dashboard Reports and add subscribers — subscribers receive a link to view the dashboard without signing in (but this still does not generate or send a PDF).
  
  To achive this open dashboard --> configure --> Enable reports/or Manage access and "Add anonymous access link"

Sorry, not correct thread

The activationSchema is unfortunately not public. There are several threads, most important is this one.
As for files upload, I'm certain it's not possible at this time. What you can do is to have a long text inputfield and you can paste the file content there. See this post. Would this solve your challenge?
