Dynatrace SaaS release notes version 1.211

New features and enhancements

Enhanced sharing options for dashboard API

The dashboard API received an update in the form of dedicated endpoints to control permissions and sharing of dashboards over the Dynatrace configuration API. It's now possible to grant view or edit permissions to users and user groups, as well as to configure multiple anonymous access links, and share dashboards publicly without requiring users to sign-in to Dynatrace.

  • This update introduces a breaking change to existing functionality in that results returned by the GET endpoint no longer contain the sharingDetails property in the dashboardMetadata object.
  • The Early Adopter state of existing dashboard API endpoints has been lifted, so no more breaking changes are expected anytime soon.
  • New dashboard API endpoints for sharing are introduced in an Early Adopter state, but are planned to be promoted soon.

Session Replay configuration for web applications via API

You can now adjust the Session Replay settings using Dynatrace API:

Metrics API: pagination

The Metrics API v2 no longer supports pagination. The nextPageKey field is still included in the response for compatibility reasons but it always has the value of null.
