`dynatrace_json_dashboard` export issues #444

Closed kishikawa12 closed 7 months ago

kishikawa12 commented 7 months ago

UPDATED

Resolved: ~~Fix export runtime error -export -id dynatrace_json_dashboard=XXXXX~~
Resolved: -ref "light" as default behavior for no -ref - all three resources in a single file, no references to other resources. This should also address the hard coded link_id issue which is currently overwriting existing dashboards.
Resolved: ~~Rewrite json_dashboard_base to json_dashboard internally, folder name to json_dashboard~~
Resolved: ~~Remove content and lifecycle block, create generic template and handle with DiffSuppress~~
Resolved: ~~Generate json_dashboard_base only if links from other dashboards exist~~
Resolved: ~~Order dashboard resources in files - json_dashboard -> dashboard_sharing -> json_dashboard_base~~
Resolved: ~~Introduce/Improve documentation around dynatrace_json_dashboard_base with the improvements above

@kishikawa12 Does the dynatrace_json_dashboard object only work for creating what Dynatrace now calls "Dashboard Classic" dashboards, or will this resource also work for creating dashboards for the new DQL centered app?

kishikawa12 commented 7 months ago

Hi @caleb-long-vad2r4,

The dynatrace_json_dashboard resource is to manage Dashboards Classic dashboards.

To manage dashboards under the new Grail platform, please utilize the dynatrace_document resource. Note that this resource has limitations due to the API - currently it only supports managing your own documents, the resources will be updated once additional functionality is available.

I hope that helps!

Hey @kishikawa12, as a follow up to this question... there seems to be some issues deploying resources with DQL in them to Dynatrace from a Terraform perspective. Not only with the resource we were discussing here, but also when deploying a Workflow using the associated Terraform resource. One of our contacts from within Dynatrace said that DQL was not supported within Terraform yet. Is there a timeline as to when DQL will be supported using the TF provider?

Hi @caleb-long-vad2r4, Terraform resources utilizing DQL should work as expected (documents, workflows, etc). If you encounter any issues please let us know by creating a new GitHub issue. Thanks!
