Use Dynatrace as the trace data store for Tracetest. Configure the OpenTelemetry Collector to receive traces and forward them to both Tracetest and Dynatrace.

If you want to use Dynatrace as the trace data store, you'll configure the OpenTelemetry Collector to receive traces from your system and then send them to both Tracetest and Dynatrace. And, you don't have to change your existing pipelines to do so.

:::tip Examples of configuring Tracetest with Dynatrace can be found in the examples folder of the Tracetest GitHub repo. :::

Configuring OpenTelemetry Collector to Send Traces to both Dynatrace and Tracetest

In your OpenTelemetry Collector config file:

  • Set the exporter to otlp/tracetest
  • Set the endpoint to your Tracetest instance on port 4317

:::tip If you are running Tracetest with Docker, and Tracetest's service name is tracetest, then the endpoint might look like this http://tracetest:4317 :::

Additionally, add another config:

  • Set the exporter to otlphttp/dynatrace
  • Set the endpoint to your Dynatrace tenant and include the: https://{your-environment-id}.live.dynatrace.com/api/v2/otlp
# collector.config.yaml

# If you already have receivers declared, you can just ignore
# this one and still use yours instead.

Configure Tracetest to Use Dynatrace as a Trace Data Store

Configure your Tracetest instance to expose an otlp endpoint to make it aware it will receive traces from the OpenTelemetry Collector. This will expose Tracetest's trace receiver on port 4317.

Connect Tracetest to Dynatrace with the Web UI

In the Web UI, (1) open Settings, and, on the (2) Configure Data Store tab, select (3) Dynatrace.

Connect Tracetest to Dynatrace with the CLI

Or, if you prefer using the CLI, you can use this file config.

type: DataStore
spec:
  name: Dynatrace pipeline
  type: dynatrace
  default: true

Proceed to run this command in the terminal and specify the file above.

tracetest apply datastore -f my/data-store/file/location.yaml
