Overview

To authenticate with Dynatrace using OAuth, you need:
  1. Account UUID - Your Dynatrace account identifier.
  2. Client ID - Your Dynatrace OAuth client ID.
  3. Client Secret - Your Dynatrace OAuth client secret.
This guide walks you through creating an OAuth client in Dynatrace and connecting your account.

​
Prerequisites

​
Instructions

​
Step 1: Find your account UUID

  1. Go to Dynatrace Account Management.
  2. If you have more than one account, select the account you want to connect.
  3. Your account UUID is visible in the URL: https://myaccount.dynatrace.com/account/home?account-uuid={accountUuid}

​
Step 2: Create an OAuth client

  1. In Account Management, go to Identity & access management > OAuth clients.
  1. Select Create client.
  2. Fill in the form:
    • Owner email: the email of the user who owns the client.
    • Description: describe what service will use this client and why.
    • Permissions: select the scopes this client needs. Tokens generated by the client can only use the scopes granted here. Common scopes include:
      • account-uac-read / account-uac-write — user and group management
      • app-engine:apps:run — run apps on AppEngine
      • storage:buckets:read / storage:logs:read — read logs and storage
  3. Select Create client.
  1. Copy the Client ID and Client Secret from the generated credentials dialog.
The client secret is shown only once. Copy it immediately and store it in your organization’s secure vault — it cannot be retrieved after you close the dialog. If lost, you must create a new client.

​
Step 3: Enter credentials in the Connect UI

  1. Open the form where you need to authenticate with Dynatrace.
  2. Enter your Account UUID, Client ID and Client Secret in their respective fields.
  3. Submit the form to authenticate.
You are now connected to Dynatrace.
