To configure the SL1 system to monitor Dynatrace resources using the DynatracePowerPack, you must first
generate a Dynatrace API token.
To do so:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    \n
  1. Log in to your Dynatrace portal. On the left menu, click Settings > Integration > Dynatrace API. The
    Dynatrace API page appears.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  2. Click the [Generate Token] button.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n
      \n
    1. In the blank box that appears, type a token name, and then activate (at a minimum) the “Access problem and
      event feed, metrics, topology, and RUM JavaScript tag management” permission.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
    2. Click [Generate] to generate the API token.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n
        \n
      1. The newly generated API token appears in your list of API tokens. Ensure that the Disable\/enable switch is
        activated.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
      2. Optionally, if you want to verify the token, you can use an API tool like Postman or cURL to send a
        GET request for your Dynatrace environment, and then attach the token to the Api-Token realm for the
        Authorization HTTP header. For example:
        curl –request GET \\
        –url https:\/\/\/e\/.live.dynatrace.com<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
