Default Dynatrace user agent name in Dynatrace Managed Synthetic

[dustin_lee]

Would anyone be able to tell me what "Default Dynatrace user agent" would be reported as? Would it be some variant of Chrome?

Hi Dustin,

I tested it out on my web application and it provided a Chrome 68 User Agent.

Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Ubuntu; Linux x86_64) AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/68.0.3440.106-1 Safari/537.36 RuxitSynthetic/1.0 v1180896077 t81618

The user agent depends by the used profile for the test. If you choose a mobile profile via the settings ui of the browser monitor the user agent will be different, but "RuxitSynthetic" is always there

So if the Desktop profile is selected for the synthetic monitor it should be Chrome 68?

Two different user agents are used.
For HTTP Monitors see "User agent" in https://www.dynatrace.com/support/help/shortlink/http-monitors-config#basic-settings, for Browser monitors see "Default user agent" in https://www.dynatrace.com/support/help/shortlink/browser-monitors-config#device-profile.
