Dynatrace SaaS release notes version 1.225

Product news

Dashboards

To make it easier to add variations of metrics in Data Explorer, we have added a Duplicate command. For example, if you’ve built an expression for average session duration to display in a line chart, and you want to add a second line to display maximum session duration, you no longer need to start from scratch to add to the second expression; just select Duplicate for the first expression and then modify the aggregation method of the copy.

Email notifications limit

Subject lines of email notification are now truncated to 20,000 characters to avoid notification loss when, for example, placeholders cause extremely long subject lines that make the messages undeliverable.

SLO error budget

Added toggle for the SLO error budget normalization. Settings for Releases and SLOs have been moved to a dedicated "Cloud Automation" section.

Dynatrace web UI updates

  • You can now add a text description of a management zone via the Dynatrace web UI.
  • A dedicated column for the build version has been added to the release overview page. If only one build version is detected, it is shown in this column. If multiple versions are available, the column shows "Multiple".
  • If AppSec (runtime vulnerability detection) has not been activated, the release details page now displays the tile icon instead of showing 0.

Dynatrace API

Resolved issues

General Availability (Build 1.225.88)

The 1.225 GA release contains 9 resolved issues.

Dashboards and charts

  • Data explorer now uses the correct name dimension keys for the :names operator in metric selectors when custom generic entity types are used. (APM-309971)
  • Fixed migration to Data explorer for custom charts containing legacy plugin metrics. (APM-316472)
  • When migrating a custom chart with two tag filters applied to the Data explorer, the tags are now correctly applied with an AND combination instead of an OR. The migrated chart is opened in Code mode in the Data explorer, not the standard Build mode, as the Build mode does not support AND filter values. (APM-318454)
  • Dashboards filtered by `Deployment type` now correctly apply the filter. (APM-317158)

Dynatrace API

  • When using the `/api/config/v1/extensions` and `/api/config/v1/plugins` endpoints to post a configuration for a remote plugin, you now need to provide the ID of an ActiveGate extension module that is online on the tenant. Use `https://{your-environment-id}.live.dynatrace.com/api/config/v1/extensions/activeGateExtensionModules` to get the IDs of all ActiveGate extension modules. Configuration for a non-existent remote plugin is rejected. (APM-310674)
  • Fixed issue that caused unauthorized requests to the Synthetic Monitoring API to return unexpected error response. (APM-317625)

Log Monitoring

  • Filtering by timestamp field in log viewer v2 no longer causes error. (APM-309687)

Transactions and services

  • Fixed an issue where calculated service metrics would randomly lose data. (APM-316585)

User interface

  • Added `Location` link to header of user details page. (APM-316552)
