5. Setup
Create OpenAI API Token#
Go to https://platform.openai.com/api-keys and create a new API Key.
Format Dynatrace URL#
Make a note of your Dynatrace URL, it should be in the following format:
https://ENVIRONMENT-ID.live.dynatrace.com
For example:
https://abc12345.live.dynatrace.com
Create Dynatrace Token#
In Dynatrace, press Ctrl + k and search for access tokens. Choose the first option.
DT_API_TOKEN#
Create an API token with these permissions:
- Ingest metrics (
metrics.ingest) - Ingest logs (
logs.ingest) - Ingest events (
events.ingest) - Ingest OpenTelemetry traces (
openTelemetryTrace.ingest) - Read metrics (
metrics.read) - Write settings (
settings.write)
This token will be used by the OpenTelemetry collector and k6 to send data to Dynatrace. The setup script which runs automatically when the codespace is created also uses this to configure span attribute capture rules in Dynatrace this means the relevant OpenTelemetry span attributes will automatically be stored.
🔁 Recap#
You should now have 3 pieces of information:
- The
DT_ENDPOINT(eg.https://abc12345.live.dynatrace) - The
DT_API_TOKEN - The
OPEN_AI_TOKEN
When you have these pieces of information, you can proceed.
