Dynatrace CloudFormation Resources

This collection of AWS CloudFormation resource types allow Dynatrace to be controlled using AWS CloudFormation.

See the end-user documentation including:

There is also developer documentation available if you are interested in building or contributing.

Resource Description Documentation
Dynatrace::Configuration::Dashboard This resource type manages a Dynatrace Dashboard /Dynatrace-Configuration-Dashboard
Dynatrace::Environment::Metric This resource type manages a Dynatrace Metric /Dynatrace-Environment-Metric
Dynatrace::Environment::ServiceLevelObjective This resource type manages a Dynatrace Service Level Objective /Dynatrace-Environment-ServiceLevelObjective
Dynatrace::Environment::SyntheticLocation This resource type manages a Dynatrace Synthetic Location /Dynatrace-Environment-SyntheticLocation
Dynatrace::Environment::SyntheticMonitor This resource type manages a Dynatrace Synthetic Monitor /Dynatrace-Environment-SyntheticMonitor

Prerequisites

AWS Management Console

To get started:

  1. Sign in to the AWS Management Console with your account and navigate to CloudFormation.

  2. Select "Public extensions" from the left hand pane and filter Publisher by "Third Party".

  3. Use the search bar to filter by the "Dynatrace" prefix.

Note: All official Dynatrace resources begin with Dynatrace:: and specify that they are Published by Dynatrace.

  1. Select the desired resource name to view more information about its schema, and click Activate.

  2. On the Extension details page, specify:

  • Extension name
  • Execution role ARN
  • Automatic updates for minor version releases
  • Configuration
  1. In your terminal, specify the configuration data for the registered Dynatrace CloudFormation resource type, in the given account and region by using the SetTypeConfiguration operation:

For example:

$ aws cloudformation set-type-configuration \z`
--region us-west-2 --type RESOURCE \
--type-name Dynatrace::Configuration::Dashboard \
--configuration-alias default \
--configuration "{ \"DynatraceAccess\":{\"Endpoint\":\"https://abc123.live.dynatrace.com\",\"Token\":\"YOURAPIKEY\"}}"
  1. After you have your resource configured, create your AWS stack that includes any of the activated Dynatrace resources.

For more information about available commands and workflows, see the official AWS documentation.
