+# Dynatrace
+
+Dynatrace allows you to receive notifications using their Events REST API.
+
+See [the Dynatrace documentation](https://www.dynatrace.com/support/help/extend-dynatrace/dynatrace-api/environment-api/events/post-event/) about POSTing an event in the Events API for more details.
+
+
+
+You need:
+
+1. Dynatrace Server. You can use the same on all your Netdata servers but make sure the server is network visible from your Netdata hosts.
+The Dynatrace server should be with protocol prefixed (`http://` or `https://`). For example: `https://monitor.example.com`
+This is a required parameter.
+2. API Token. Generate a secure access API token that enables access to your Dynatrace monitoring data via the REST-based API.
+Generate a Dynatrace API authentication token. On your Dynatrace server, go to **Settings** --> **Integration** --> **Dynatrace API** --> **Generate token**.
+See [Dynatrace API - Authentication](https://www.dynatrace.com/support/help/extend-dynatrace/dynatrace-api/basics/dynatrace-api-authentication/) for more details.
+This is a required parameter.
+3. API Space. This is the URL part of the page you have access in order to generate the API Token. For example, the URL
+ for a generated API token might look like:
+ `https://monitor.illumineit.com/e/2a93fe0e-4cd5-469a-9d0d-1a064235cfce/#settings/integration/apikeys;gf=all` In that
+ case, my space is _2a93fe0e-4cd5-469a-9d0d-1a064235cfce_ This is a required parameter.
+4. Generate a Server Tag. On your Dynatrace Server, go to **Settings** --> **Tags** --> **Manually applied tags** and create the Tag.
+The Netdata alarm is sent as a Dynatrace Event to be correlated with all those hosts tagged with this Tag you have created.
+This is a required parameter.
+5. Specify the Dynatrace event. This can be one of `CUSTOM_INFO`, `CUSTOM_ANNOTATION`, `CUSTOM_CONFIGURATION`, and `CUSTOM_DEPLOYMENT`.
+The default value is `CUSTOM_INFO`.
+This is a required parameter.
+6. Specify the annotation type. This is the source of the Dynatrace event. Put whatever it fits you, for example,
+_Netdata Alarm_, which is also the default value.
