Dt Migration

Dynatrace users often need to update their DQL queries from classic to Smartscape format. This skill helps you migrate classic entity-based queries and Gen2 patterns to modern Smartscape equivalents. It covers three main scenarios: filtering mass data by entity conditions, using entity subqueries, and converting pure entity lists. The goal is to keep your queries working and make them ready for the latest Dynatrace features.

You will learn the correct migration strategy based on what your query does. The skill explains when to use raw dimension filters first and when Smartscape is the best choice. It also includes a mapping table and workflow for rewriting queries with smartscapeNodes, smartscapeEdges, and other Smartscape primitives. This makes the transition smooth and reliable.

Before writing final DQL, load the dt-dql-essentials skill to follow current syntax rules. This skill focuses only on Smartscape-oriented migration, not asset-level workflows. By using it, you can modernize your Dynatrace queries without breaking existing logic.
