Already contacted this address, and asked to share the solution here, if possible.
maybe someone else have similar issues and a public answer can be useful

[VladimirN]

Ok.

[sparca · Accepted solution]

Dynatrace support answered (very quickly):

Quote: "The short explanation is that it happens when the API calls are triggered too quickly between each call. Some API calls are dependent on the execution of previous calls and this error occurs if they are still processing the request in the backend.

To resolve this issue please navigate to the local directory where you downloaded the GitHub files, navigate into the “assets” folder, and delete already loaded files; in my case: folder with the prefix “01” – “05” (“01-ManagementZones”, “02-Application”, “03-DetectionRules”, “04-AutoTags”, “05-RequestAttributes”). After deleting the folders, please re-execute the script.

• Solution Explanation: The utility tool returns an error and terminates if it sees existing assets already deployed on the tenant. Without deleting the folders above, it’ll attempt to execute the first json (assets/01-ManagementZones/MgmtZone.json) and return an error since it already exists from the previous execution. Deleting the specified folders above will bypass all of the successful API calls from your previous run based off of the log file provided."

This solution worked, but first, in my case, I had to delete the object that give error (ActionNameByUser) you can to this in Settings -> Server-Side Monitoring -> Calculated Service Metrics
