This page describes certain legacy Settings schemas that have been removed in Latest Dynatrace.

  • None of the schemas on this page are visible in Latest Dynatrace.
  • Latest Dynatrace provides equivalent functionalities for many of the removed schemas, as identified in the relevant table.

Use this information as you migrate from Dynatrace Classic to Latest Dynatrace.

These changes are part of the continuous evolution of the Dynatrace platform towards a unified, scalable observability platform. These changes enable enhanced capabilities through Grail's data lakehouse architecture and the flexible Workflows Workflows automation engine.

If you use configuration-as-code or other automations that reference these schemas by ID, you need to update these automations before the schemas are removed from your environment. Otherwise, your automations may fail.

OpenTelemetry attribute capturing

These schemas collectively controlled which OpenTelemetry span and resource attribute values are stored in classic storage and who can see them. In the Grail-based platform, this functionality moves to two layers: OpenPipeline for at-ingest filtering and transformation, and Grail field-level security (fieldsets) for display masking.

Attributes preferences

Replaced by OpenPipeline

Processing in OpenPipeline, Set up Grail permissions for Distributed Tracing

Use OpenPipeline span pipelines to drop or transform specific attributes at ingest.

builtin:attribute-allow-list

Allowed attributes

Replaced by OpenPipeline

Processing in OpenPipeline

Configure an OpenPipeline span pipeline to explicitly keep or remove attribute keys at ingest.

builtin:attribute-block-list

Attribute data masking

Replaced by OpenPipeline masking/dropping and Grail field-level security

Mask data, Set up Grail permissions for Distributed Tracing

To mask or drop selected attributes at ingest, use OpenPipeline masking/dropping. To restrict who can view stored sensitive attributes, define custom fieldsets in Grail field-level security, marking sensitive attribute keys as restricted.
