# Configure using SGC Central
# Configure Service Graph Connector for Observability - Dynatrace SaaS using SGC Central {#ariaid-title1}
Release version: Brazil
Updated September 10, 2026
 3 minutes to read
Use the playbook in SGC Central to set up the Service Graph Connector for Observability - Dynatrace SaaS and pull Dynatrace data into your CMDB.
## Before you begin
Important:
The Service Graph Connector for Observability - Dynatrace SaaS is designed for the Dynatrace SaaS (3rd‑generation) platform and leverages DQL-based APIs and the Grail architecture to import data from Dynatrace into the CMDB. If you're in a Dynatrace managed (self‑hosted) or legacy SaaS environment, you should use the Service Graph Connector for Observability - Dynatrace.
Install Service Graph Connector for Observability - Dynatrace SaaS from the ServiceNow Store. For ServiceNow Store installation steps, see [Install a ServiceNow Store application](https://www.servicenow.com/docs/access?context=installing-applications-in-application-manager&version=brazil&pubname=brazil-platform-administration&ft:locale=en-US).
Role required: The following table shows the roles required for each stage of the playbook.{#sgcc-configure-dynatrace-saas__table_zcy_w5p_4hc__entry__2}
| Stage | Role |
|-|-|

[Table 1. Role required for each playbook stage]
{#sgcc-configure-dynatrace-saas__table_zcy_w5p_4hc}
Note:
The admin user role is required to run background scripts and to provide access to global tables to the SGC-Admin user. For information about the user roles for Service Graph Connectors, see [Service Graph Connector user roles](https://www.servicenow.com/docs/mRCOEjfrvYv2Aq05aVS7WA#cmdb-sgc-intro__section_ett_spp_4hc).
## About this task
The playbook experience for onboarding connectors is activated with SGC Central in the CMDB Workspace. To configure the SGC Central application, see [Configuring SGC Central](https://www.servicenow.com/docs/XGFfq~UhjJmd21sXF8focw "Set up the SGC Central application for onboarding and maintaining Service Graph Connectors and monitoring the errors related to connections added using Service Graph Connectors.") and for more information on how to interact with a playbook, see Interact with Playbook.
## Procedure
1. Use one of the following methods to open SGC Central:
* Navigate to WorkspacesService Graph Workspace, and from the left navigation panel, select the Ingestion icon ![]() to open the SGC Central view.
* Navigate to WorkspacesCMDB WorkspaceSGC Central.
{#sgcc-configure-dynatrace-saas__choices_bd1_nrz_k3c}
2. On the Overview page, select Create connection.
3. On the Create connection window, select the Dynatrace SaaS connector type, and then select Create connection.
4. Complete the initial prerequisites when setting up a connection for the first time.
Note:
This step is required only during the first-time setup. See [Perform initial setup tasks when creating a connection in SGC Central](https://www.servicenow.com/docs/VcU1VQjRtslcMS9SgrHgAw "Complete the prerequisites for setting up a connection for the first time using a Service Graph Connector within the SGC Central view of the Service Graph Workspace or CMDB Workspace.").
5. Enter connection details and test the connection for importing Dynatrace data.
1. In the Setup stage, select Create and test connection.
2. On the form, fill in the fields.
{#sgcc-configure-dynatrace-saas__table_kr2_ngj_njc__entry__2}
| Field | Description |
|:-|:-|
| Connection name | Name to identify the Dynatrace SaaS connection record. |
| Hostname | Host name of your Dynatrace environment (Dynatrace-tenant.apps.dynatrace.com). |
| Platform Token | Dynatrace platform token (see [Platform tokens](https://docs.dynatrace.com/docs/manage/identity-access-management/access-tokens-and-oauth-clients/platform-tokens)). Note: The platform token must not be prefixed with Bearer. |
[Table 2. Create and test connection form]
{#sgcc-configure-dynatrace-saas__table_kr2_ngj_njc}
Note:
The following permissions are required for the platform token:
storage:entities:read
storage:smartscape:read
For more information, see [Permissions in Grail](https://docs.dynatrace.com/docs/platform/grail/organize-data/assign-permissions-in-grail).
3. Select Create and test connection.
4. After the test completes, select Continue.
6. Set the configuration properties for the connection.
1. In the Setup stage, select Set configuration properties.
2. Select the Create upstream/downstream service-to-service relationship option to enable the creation of upstream and downstream relationships between Dynatrace Service CIs (service‑to‑service).
See the [service_to_service_relationships_enabled](https://www.servicenow.com/docs/ZWrjso~furPnrgwgwurooQ#sgc-dynatrace-saas-properties__entry_dnf_1jj_njc) connection property for more information.
3. Select the Append Dynatrace tenant id to calculated service name option to enable the creation of unique names across multiple Dynatrace connections by appending the Dynatrace tenant ID to the Calculated Service names.
See the [append_tenant_id_to_service_name](https://www.servicenow.com/docs/ZWrjso~furPnrgwgwurooQ#sgc-dynatrace-saas-properties__entry_bhr_fjj_njc) connection property for more information.
4. Specify the maximum number of records to be returned per Dynatrace API request in the Dynatrace API batch size field.
See the [dynatrace_api_batch_size](https://www.servicenow.com/docs/ZWrjso~furPnrgwgwurooQ#sgc-dynatrace-saas-properties__entry_isz_t3j_njc) connection property for more information.
5. Select Continue.
7. Configure the import schedule.
1. In the Setup stage, select Configure import schedule.
2. Select the import schedule for your connection, set it to Active, and fill in the run schedule details.
3. Select Save, then Continue.
8. Migrate from Service Graph Connector for Observability - Dynatrace to Service Graph Connector for Observability - Dynatrace SaaS.
