    • The following table displays the Dynatrace connector instance value parameters that you can fill in, as needed, when creating a Dynatrace connector instance.

    Table 1. Connector instance value parameters
    Parameter Description
    BaseApiPath Custom base path for Dynatrace API calls.

    If your Dynatrace instance uses a different path than the default /api/v2/metrics, enter the custom path to ensure successful collection of metrics.
    debug Set to true to enable debug logs.

    Default: false
    initialSyncInMins Number of minutes before the current time that the initial metric collection runs. For example, if the value is 15, the connector fetches metrics from the past 15 minutes.

    Default: 15
    logPayload Determines whether to print the raw log payload. Set to true only for debugging purposes, as printing the raw payload quickly fills up the MID Server logs.

    Default: false
    maxMetricsPerQuery Maximum number of metric ids to query per API call to Dynatrace. The value cannot exceed 32, the maximum limit allowed by Dynatrace.

    Default: 32
    pageSize Maximum number of records to return in an API response from Dynatrace.

    Default: 500
    port Port number for the Dynatrace server to connect to.

    empty
    protocol Protocol to use when connecting to the Dynatrace server.

    Default: https
    throttleApiCalls Determines whether throttling is enabled. When enabled (true), a limit is set on the number of API calls to Dynatrace per minute.

    Default: false
    requestPerMinute The limit on number of API calls to Dynatrace per minute. Relevant only when throttleApiCalls = true.

    Default: 1000
