Which device profile options are available for synthetic monitors?

The option for screen size is indeed available as a device profile option for synthetic monitors in Dynatrace. This feature allows users to specify different screen resolutions and sizes, which is critical for simulating how an application performs across various devices, particularly those used for mobile or web browsing. By configuring the screen size, organizations can ensure that they test their applications under conditions that reflect real user experiences, leading to better insights about functionality and performance on different devices.

The other options, while relevant in the context of monitoring, do not fall under the device profile options specifically for synthetic monitors. Proxy settings, network protocol, and server location are aspects that pertain more to the configuration and execution of tests rather than the defining characteristics of the devices being simulated. Thus, focusing on screen size as a device profile option emphasizes the importance of how applications render and behave visually on different devices, which is a key factor in web performance monitoring.
