Settings API - Simple detection rules schema table
Simple detection rules (builtin:process-group.simple-detection-rule)
Simple process group detection rules enable you to adapt the default process-group detection logic for deep monitored processes via environment variables or Java system properties. More about custom process-group detection
Note: Detection rules change the composition, makeup, and identity of a process group, not just the name. If you only need to change default name use the naming rules (<your-dynatrace-url>/#settings/pgnamingsettings "Visit Naming rules page") instead.
Process-group detection rules only affect processes that are deep monitored by the Dynatrace OneAgent and require a restart of your processes to affect how processes are identified and grouped.
