Hi,

I customize the event according to the document,

Create a Custom Event

You can create custom events to be reported in the AppDynamics event viewer and in the events panels on the AppDynamics dashboards. See Monitor Events to learn how to filter on your custom events so that you can find them. Then you can create alerts triggered by these events as you do for AppDynamics standard events.

You should receive the event ID after successful invocation of the request.

URI

POST /controller/rest/applications/application_id/events

Input parameters

I created a post request based on the document (

curl -X POST --user janice_@hsbccmbtest:janicehttps://hsbccmbtest.saas.appdynamics.com/controller/rest/applications/HSBCNET_SDE4/events?severity=INFO&summary=test1&eventtype=CUSTOM&customeventtype=mycustomevent&propertynames=key1&propertyvalues=value1&propertyvalues=value

)

Run on the terminal , Always prompts HTTP / 1.1 400 Event summary is not specified

(

curl -i -X POST --user janice_wang@hsbccmbtest:janiceWang1 https://hsbccmbtest.saas.appdynamics.com/controller/rest/applications/HSBCNET_SDE4/events?severity=I...
