Dynatrace MCP Overview

The dynatrace-oss/dynatrace-mcp MCP server connects AI assistants to a Dynatrace environment through a local stdio process. It exposes tools for DQL queries, problem and vulnerability analysis, entity discovery, Davis Intelligence, notifications, and shared notebooks. Authentication uses an OAuth authorization flow in a browser, with tokens stored in the operating system keychain by default. The repository is deprecated at version 2.1.2, so use it only when maintaining an existing setup or evaluating its migration path.

Primary Use Cases for Dynatrace MCP:
  • Investigate Dynatrace problems with correlated logs and traces
  • Query Grail data using natural-language DQL requests
  • Review vulnerabilities, exceptions, and Kubernetes events
  • Send operational notifications through Slack, email, or events
