Dynatrace Synthetic Scripting capabilities

Hello everyone.

Need to automatically apply current date to a date field each time my web transaction is re-played. Shown below is the code from dynatrace synthetic script.

I added the following "var date = (today.getMonth()+1)+'-'+today.getDate()+'-'+today.getFullYear() to the TextValue field.

Each time web transaction is replayed, the date field is not displaying the current date. I only see the text from the code.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

I am new to json coding but I am eager to learn!


Thank You!

Hi Richard,

do you still need help with this? If yes, is the web application you are scripting against public? You should be able to achieve this with a JavaScript event. See https://www.dynatrace.com/support/help/how-to-use-dynatrace/synthetic-monitoring/browser-monitors/br...

Kind regards,
Philipp
