This change affects only DPS tenants, for which Synthetic generates Grail events.
In January 2025, we renamed some of the Synthetic event attributes to align Synthetic events with the latest Dynatrace naming conventions.
This specifically affects batch_status events produced by, for example, Synthetic for Workflows.
If your workflows use output from Synthetic for Workflows, check your workflows and update all instances of the old attribute names.
You have until May 31, 2025, to make these updates:
Until May 31, 2025, Synthetic for Workflows returns attributes in both the old and new naming formats.
After May 31, 2025, Synthetic for Workflows will return attributes only in the new naming format.
A comparison of all old and new names is provided in the table below.
How to update attribute names
Because Synthetic for Workflows output can be used in so many ways across different workflow actions, it is not possible to automatically update attribute names.
Therefore, you'll need to find and update all affected attribute names manually.
To find affected attribute names, open each workflow and look for any instances of the old attribute names in the workflow actions.
Look at all workflow tasks that follow a Synthetic for Workflows action (that is, tasks that could use the results of the Synthetic for Workflows action).
You'll find Synthetic attribute names in the action's configuration pane, under the Input and Conditions tabs.
However, to be sure, look through all possible configuration options for each workflow.
Update the attribute name according the table below and then save the workflow.
Do this for all workflows.
Comparison of old and new names
This table includes all affected batch_status event attributes, with old attribute names and the corresponding new attribute names.
Further information about Synthetic batch_status events (attribute, type, description, and examples) is available at Synthetic batch status.
__key__ and __index__ are placeholders; the exact values depend on the specific Synthetic for Workflows action.
