The FullWebServiceRule object

The service detection rule of the FULL_WEB_SERVICE type.

If you have a condition with the attributeType set to FRAMEWORK, the values field from compareOperations is limited to the following possible values:

  • PROGRESS
  • RESTEASY
  • RESTLET
  • SPRING
  • TIBCO
  • WEBLOGIC
  • WEBMETHODS
  • WEBSPHERE
  • WINK
Element Type Description Required
type string

The type of the service detection rule.

 required
managementZones string[]

The management zone (specified by the ID) of the process group for which this service detection rule should be created.

You can specify only 1 management zone here.

 optional
id string

The ID of the service detection rule.

 optional
order string

The order of the rule in the rules list.

The rules are evaluated from top to bottom. The first matching rule applies.

 optional
name string

The name of the rule.

 required
description string

A short description of the rule.

 optional
enabled boolean

The rule is enabled(true) or disabled (false).

 required
conditions ConditionsFullWebServiceAttributeTypeDto[]

A list of conditions of the rule.

If several conditions are specified, the AND logic applies.

 optional
detectAsWebRequestService boolean

Detect the matching requests as full web services (false) or web request services (true).

Setting this field to true prevents detecting of matching requests as full web services. A web request service is created instead. If you need to further modify the resulting web request service, you need to create a separate rule of the FULL_WEB_REQUEST type.

Default is false, detecting matching requests as full web services.

 optional
webServiceName WebServiceName optional
webServiceNameSpace WebServiceNameSpace optional
applicationId ApplicationId optional
contextRoot ContextRoot optional
serverName ServerName optional

The ServerName object

The contribution to the service ID calculation from the detected server name.

You have two mutually exclusive options:

  • Override the detected value with a specified static value. Specify the new value in the valueOverride field.
  • Dynamically transform the detected value. Specify the transformation parameters in the transformations field.
Element Type Description Required
transformations TransformationBase[]

Transformations to be applied to the detected value.

 optional
valueOverride string

The value to be used instead of the detected value.

 optional

The ContextRoot object

The contribution to the service ID calculation from the detected context root.

The context root is the first segment of the request URL after server name. For example, in the www.dynatrace.com/support/help/dynatrace-api/ URL the context root is support.

You have two options:

  • Keep a part of the detected URL. Specify the number of segments to be kept in the segmentsToCopyFromUrlPath field.
  • Dynamically transform the detected URL. Specify the transformation parameters in the transformations field.

You can use one or both options. If you use both, the transformation applies to the modified URL.

Element Type Description Required
transformations ContextRootTransformation[]

Transformations to be applied to the detected value.

 optional
segmentsToCopyFromUrlPath integer

The number of segments of the URL to be kept.

The URL is divided by slashes (/), the indexing starts with 1 at context root.

For example, if you specify 2 for the www.dynatrace.com/support/help/dynatrace-api/ URL, the value of support/help is used.

 optional

The ContextRootTransformation object

Configuration of transformation of the detected value.

If several transformations are specified, they are handled sequentially from top to bottom. Each transformation is applied to the result of the preceding transformation. For example, the second transformation is applied to the result of the first transformation.

The actual set of fields depends on the type of the transformation.
