type	string	The type of the service detection rule.	required
metadata	ConfigurationMetadata		optional
managementZones	string[]	Specifies the management zones of the process group for which this service detection rule should be created.	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

description	string	A short description of the rule.	optional

applicationId	ApplicationId		optional
contextRoot	ContextRoot		optional
port	Port		optional
publicDomainName	PublicDomainName		optional

The PublicDomainName object

The contribution to the service ID calculation from the domain name where the web request has been detected.

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
copyFromHostName	boolean	Use (true) or don't use (false) the detected host name as base for transformation. Not applicable if the override is specified.	optional

The Port object

The contribution to the service ID calculation from the port, where the web request has been detected.

Element	Type	Description	Required
doNotUseForServiceId	boolean	The port is used (false) or isn't used (true) in the service ID calculation.	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/extend-dynatrace/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.

Element	Type	Description	Required
type	string	Defines the actual set of fields depending on the value. See one of the following objects: BEFORE -> BeforeTransformation REPLACE_BETWEEN -> ReplaceBetweenTransformation REMOVE_NUMBERS -> RemoveNumbersTransformation REMOVE_CREDIT_CARDS -> RemoveCreditCardNumbersTransformation REMOVE_IBANS -> RemoveIBANsTransformation REMOVE_IPS -> RemoveIPsTransformation The type element can hold these values.	required

The ApplicationId object

The contribution to the service ID calculation from the detected application ID.

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 TransformationBase 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.

Element	Type	Description	Required
type	string	Defines the actual set of fields depending on the value. See one of the following objects: BEFORE -> BeforeTransformation AFTER -> AfterTransformation BETWEEN -> BetweenTransformation REPLACE_BETWEEN -> ReplaceBetweenTransformation REMOVE_NUMBERS -> RemoveNumbersTransformation REMOVE_CREDIT_CARDS -> RemoveCreditCardNumbersTransformation REMOVE_IBANS -> RemoveIBANsTransformation REMOVE_IPS -> RemoveIPsTransformation SPLIT_SELECT -> SplitSelectTransformation TAKE_SEGMENTS -> TakeSegmentsTransformation The type element can hold these values.	required

The ConditionsOpaqueAndExternalWebRequestAttributeTypeDto object

A condition of the service detection rule.

Element	Type	Description	Required
attributeType	string	The type of the attribute to be checked. The attributeType element can hold these values.	required
compareOperations	CompareOperation[]	A list of conditions for the rule. If several conditions are specified, the AND logic applies.	optional

The CompareOperation object

The condition of the rule.

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

Element	Type	Description	Required
type	string	Defines the actual set of fields depending on the value. See one of the following objects: EQUALS -> EqualsCompareOperation STRING_CONTAINS -> StringContainsCompareOperation STARTS_WITH -> StartsWithCompareOperation ENDS_WITH -> EndsWithCompareOperation EXISTS -> ExistsCompareOperation IP_IN_RANGE -> IpInRangeCompareOperation LESS_THAN -> LessThanCompareOperation GREATER_THAN -> GreaterThanCompareOperation INT_EQUALS -> IntEqualsCompareOperation STRING_EQUALS -> StringEqualsCompareOperation TAG -> TagCompareOperation The type element can hold these values.	required

The ConfigurationMetadata object

Metadata useful for debugging

Element	Type	Description	Required
configurationVersions	integer[]	A Sorted list of the version numbers of the configuration.	optional
currentConfigurationVersions	string[]	A Sorted list of string version numbers of the configuration.	optional
clusterVersion	string	Dynatrace server version.	optional
