Identity synthetic users that are not configured in Dynatrace

We have a third party synthetic tool that is monitoring our web application. The application is monitored by Dynatrace Real user monitoring. Is there a way I can identify traffic from this synthetic tool?

Hi,

Can you add specific request headers in the third party synthetic tool?

If not, maybe User-Agent is different and you can filter by that value.

User-Agent is different for the tool. How can filter by it? I suspect I am missing some config in my Application settings. 

Hi,

Then you can create a request attribute base on web request data for capturing that header.

And then, you can create a user action property base on that request attribute.

Then, you will be able to filter request and user actions base on a specific User-Agent.

I just had a thought, this solution would not work on a frontend application instrumented using agentless monitoring. Is there a way we can track in this scenario?

Hi,

Then, I would check which options are allowed for user action properties.
