dashport

Dashport makes it possible to clone dashboards between Dynatrace tenants.

Building

To build the project:

cd cmd/dashport
go build -o $HOME/bin/dashport

Usage

You need to create api keys on both prod and dev tenants before you can use dashport.

Dev link to create apitoken: https://<dynatrace dev tenant>.live.dynatrace.com/#settings/integration/apikeys;gf=all
Prod link to create apitoken: https://<dynatrace prod tenant>.live.dynatrace.com/#settings/integration/apikeys;gf=all

Ensure the token has read and write configuration enabled.

Add the details to $HOME/.config/dashport/dashportcfg.json, like so:

mkdir $HOME/.config/dashport
vim $HOME/.config/dashport/dashportcfg.json
{
"apiConfig": {
	"Tenants": [
		{
		"env": "dev",
		"token": "<the token you created>",
		"url": "https://<dynatrace dev tenant>.live.dynatrace.com/api/config/v1"
		},
		{
		"env": "prod",
		"token": "<the token you created>",
		"url": "https://<dynatrace prod tenant>.live.dynatrace.com/api/config/v1"
		}
		]
	}
	
}

Save the file.

Usage examples

To print all dashboards for prod:

dashport -act printall -oenv prod 

Get specific dashboard id by name:

dashport -act printall -oenv dev | grep -B1 clone-test | awk -F'"id": "|"' '/id/ { print $2 }'

Using jq:

dashport -act printall -oenv dev | 'jq '.[] | .[] | select (.name=="clone-test") | .id'

To print specific dashboard in prod:

dashport -act print -oenv prod -id <id>

To clone specific dashboard from prod to dev:

dashport -act clone -oenv prod -denv dev -id <id>

To update a specific dashboard from prod to dev:

dashport -act update -oenv prod -id <id> -denv dev -did <destination id>

To delete specific dashboard on tenant env:

dashport -act delete -oenv dev -id <id>

And a simple script to backup all dashboards:

#!/bin/bash

set -eu -o pipefail

tenant='dev'

for dash in $(dashport -act printall -oenv "$tenant" | jq '.[] | .[] | .id'); do
  dashport dashport -act print -oenv "$tenant" -id "$dash" > "$dash".json
done

This is software is not tested outside of my available tenants and bugs may occur. Save copies of dashboards before experimenting with cloning etc. Report bugs.
