Hi @Sisapy09 

There is an option to test which is metric ingestion:

Hi @Sisapy09 

As of now the highlighted metrics aren't covered by Dynatrace extension OOB:

• https://www.dynatrace.com/hub/detail/graphql/?query=graph&filter=all

In parallel you can raise the extended monitoring requirements as product idea
