How to read CSV data from server to build a dashboard

[SachinJindal]

Hi,

I have scripts running on the server for capturing the data every 5 mins and wanted to read those files/capture data and present them in the dashboard.

Note: OneAgent is already installed on a server.

You could call the metrics api in your script to push the data to dynatrace. 

Or you could convert it to a OneAgent Extension.

The documentation I linked contains an Example that should fit your use case. Adding a new metric to an existing host.
