I am interested in exporting Dynatrace metrics in Excel for some offline analysis. Can this be done through via an API ?
Hi. Yes - this is possible. You can create a dashboard in your dynatrace client and save it on your dynatrace server. Now you have two options. Either you click on Dashboard -> Report and create an XLS report of this dashbooard - OR - do the same via our REST API that allows you to query any dashboard you have stored on your dynatrace server. The REST API also allows you to define the output format: Reporting (REST)

Hi Andreas,
Thanks for your response. I wanted to get these metrics through REST API so I tried following WSDL in SOAP UI and I got error message. I tried various version of SOAP but wasn't successful. Can you please let me know what could be the reason?
http://localhost:8020/wsdl/ManagementServerService.wsdl
Error Msg : com.eviware.soapui.support.SoapUIException:Error Importing wsdl
Thanks,
Suraj
These are REST APIs, so no SOAP/WSDL is available for these, SOAP UI has support for running against REST interfaces, however there is no full automated description available, so you need to at least define the REST calls that you are interested in based on the documentation. See the REST reporting documentation listed by Andreas above for details about how to use the REST interfaces.
Dominik.
