This API is deprecated. Use the Monitored entities API instead. You can find more information about switching to the new API in the migration guide.
Gets the list of all process groups in your Dynatrace environment, along with their parameters and relationships.
The full list can be lengthy, so you can narrow it down by specifying filter parameters, like tags. See the Parameters section for more details.
You can additionally limit the output by using the pagination:
The request produces an application/json payload.
| GET | SaaS | https://{your-environment-id}.live.dynatrace.com/api/v1/entity/infrastructure/process-groups |
| Environment ActiveGate | https://{your-activegate-domain}:9999/e/{your-environment-id}/api/v1/entity/infrastructure/process-groups |
To execute this request, you need an access token with DataExport scope.
To learn how to obtain and use it, see Tokens and authentication.
The timeframe is restricted to a maximum period of 3 days.
The start timestamp of the requested timeframe, in milliseconds (UTC).
If not set, then 72 hours behind from now is used.
The end timestamp of the requested timeframe, in milliseconds (UTC).
If not set, then the current timestamp is used.
The timeframe must not exceed 3 days.
The relative timeframe, back from now.
min5mins10mins15mins30minshour2hours6hoursday3daysFilters the resulting set of process groups by the specified tag. You can specify several tags in the following format: tag=tag1&tag=tag2. The process group has to match all the specified tags.
In case of key-value tags, such as imported AWS or CloudFoundry tags, use the following format: tag=[context]key:value. For custom key-value tags, omit the context: tag=key:value.
Filters result to the specified process groups only.
To specify several process groups use the following format: entity=ID1&entity=ID2.
Filters process groups by the host they're running at.
Specify Dynatrace IDs of the host you're interested in.
To specify several hosts use the following format: host=hostID1&host=hostID2.
The OR logic applies.
Only return process groups that are part of the specified management zone.
Includes (true) or excludes (false) details which are queried from related entities.
Excluding details may make queries faster.
If not set, then true is used.
The number of process groups per result page.
If not set, pagination is not used and the result contains all process groups fitting the specified filtering criteria.
The cursor for the next page of results. You can find it in the Next-Page-Key header of the previous response.
If you're using pagination, the first page is always returned without this cursor.
You must keep all other query parameters as they were in the first request to obtain subsequent pages.
