can we send custom metrics into dynatrace

[avinashpodisetti]

is there a way to send custom metrics into dynatrace using the existing code by modifying values.yaml file or any other files ??

Hey. When it comes to this integration, you can ingest GCP custom metrics as long as you declare them and assign it to a single GCP resource type. Then, the autodiscovery feature can be enabled (specifying that resource type in the autodiscovery-values.yaml). Ref: https://docs.dynatrace.com/docs/shortlink/gcp-autodiscovery#select-resources

On a general level, outside of this particular extension, any metric can be manually ingested into Dynatrace following our protocol: https://docs.dynatrace.com/docs/extend-dynatrace/extend-metrics/reference/metric-ingestion-protocol
