Hi Community,
I have a process group: Process.Group.ABCD. Within this process group, Dynatrace detects 1 Web Request Service and 6 Web Services. Although they all belong to the same process group, Dynatrace creates them as separate services and captures requests individually across these 7 services.
This makes it challenging to query or monitor them as a single unit, since I need to reference multiple service IDs in DQL queries and dashboards.
Is there a way to configure Service Detection (v2) so that all these services from the same process group (both Web Request Service and Web Services) can be merged into a single service entity?
I have already tried creating a service detection rule scoped to the process group and env tag (we use env:q for UAT and env:p for PROD, since both environments share the same process and service names). However, Dynatrace still creates multiple service entities instead of one merged service.
Any guidance, best practices, or working examples on how to achieve this merged service view in Dynatrace would be greatly appreciated.
