| Portfolio Turnover [Text Block] | rr_PortfolioTurnoverTextBlock | The fund pays transaction costs, such as commissions, when it buys and sells securities (or “turns over” its portfolio). A higher portfolio turnover may indicate higher transaction costs and may mean higher taxes if you are investing in a taxable account. These costs are not reflected in annual fund operating expenses or in the expense example, and can affect the fund's performance.Portfolio turnover rate for the fund, for the period from October 27, 2023 (commencement of operations) through the most recent fiscal year end, was 32% of the average value of its portfolio. | ||

| Expense Example Narrative [Text Block] | rr_ExpenseExampleNarrativeTextBlock | This Example is intended to help you compare the cost of investing in the fund with the cost of investing in other funds. The Example assumes that you invest $10,000 in the fund for the time periods indicated and then sell all of your shares at the end of those periods. The Example also assumes that your investment has a 5% return each year and that the fund's operating expenses (including two years of capped expenses in each period) remain the same. The Example does not take into account brokerage commissions that you may pay on your purchases and sales of shares of the fund. It also does not include the transaction fees on purchases and redemptions of Creation Units (defined herein), because those fees will not be imposed on retail investors. Although your actual costs may be higher or lower, based on these assumptions your costs would be: | ||

| Strategy Narrative [Text Block] | rr_StrategyNarrativeTextBlock | The fund, using a “passive” or indexing investment approach, seeks investment results that correspond generally to the performance, before fees and expenses, of the ICE BofA BB-B Non-FNCL Non-Distressed US HY Constrained Index (the “Underlying Index”). The Underlying Index is a subset of the ICE BofA US High Yield Index (the “Parent Index”), which is designed to track the performance of US dollar denominated below investment grade corporate debt publicly issued in the US domestic market.To qualify for the Underlying Index’s Parent Index, individual securities must have (i) a below investment grade rating (based on an average of ratings from Moody’s® Investors Services (“Moody’s”), Standard & Poor’s® Financial Services, LLC (“S&P”) and Fitch, Inc. (“Fitch”); (ii) at least 18 months to final maturity at the time of issuance; (iii) at least one year remaining term to final maturity as of the rebalancing date; (iv) a fixed coupon schedule (i.e., a stream of fixed payments); and (v) a minimum amount outstanding of $250 million. In addition, the “country of risk” assigned to the security by the Index Provider (defined herein) must be a member of the FX-G10, Western Europe or the territories of the US and Western Europe. The FX-G10 includes all Eurozone members, the US, Japan, the UK, Canada, Australia, New Zealand, Switzerland, Norway and Sweden. When determining the particular country of risk assigned to a security, the Index Provider bases its determination primarily on the physical location of the issuer’s operating headquarters, with certain exceptions.Original issue zero coupon bonds, 144A securities, and pay-in-kind securities are included in the Parent Index. Parent Index constituents are market capitalization weighted based on each index constituent’s face amount outstanding. The Parent Index does not include securitized debt, such as asset-backed securities.Using the Parent Index as a starting point, the Underlying Index (i) excludes financial issuers (i.e., banking, financial services, insurance and financial/commodity exchange issuers); (ii) restricts the credit ratings of its constituent securities to securities rated BB1 through B3, inclusive, based on an average of ratings from Moody’s, S&P and Fitch; and (iii) requires that its constituent securities have an option-adjusted spread of less than 10%. Option-adjusted spread is a measure of the difference between a bond’s interest rate and the risk-free rate of return (usually measured by Treasury yields), adjusted by taking into account the bond’s embedded options (the ability of a bondholder or issuer to take actions under specified circumstances, such as calling the bond). The option-adjusted spread helps investors compare a fixed-income security’s cash flows to reference rates while also valuing the bond’s embedded options against general market volatility. By considering both components, investors can evaluate whether a fixed income investment is worthwhile at a given price.Underlying Index constituents are market capitalization weighted, subject to a maximum weight of 2% for any individual issuer. Issuers that exceed this limit are reduced to 2%, and the relative weight of each bond of that issuer is reduced proportionately. Similarly, the face values of bonds of all other issuers that fall below the 2% cap are increased on a pro-rata basis. In the event there are fewer than 50 issuers in the Underlying Index, each is equally weighted and the face values of their respective bonds are increased or decreased on a pro-rata basis.The fund uses a representative sampling indexing strategy in seeking to track the Underlying Index, meaning it generally will invest in a sample of securities in the index whose risk, return and other characteristics resemble the risk, return and other characteristics of the Underlying Index as a whole.The fund will invest at least 80% of its total assets (but typically far more) in instruments that comprise the Underlying Index. In addition, the fund will normally invest at least 80% of its net assets, plus the amount of any borrowings for investment purposes in US dollar denominated high yield bonds rated Ba1 (Moody’s) / BB+ (S&P and Fitch) through B3 (Moody’s) / B- (S&P and Fitch), inclusive, based on an average of ratings from Moody’s, S&P and FitchAs of October 31, 2024, the Underlying Index was comprised of 1,440 bonds issued by 773 different issuers with an average amount outstanding of approximately $729 million and a minimum amount outstanding of approximately $250 million, from the following countries (may reflect country of domicile): Austria, Australia, Bermuda, Canada, Cayman Islands, China, Finland, France, Germany, Ireland, Italy, Japan, Jersey Channel Islands, Liberia, Luxembourg, Marshall Islands, Malta, the Netherlands, Panama, Peru, Spain, the United Kingdom, the United Republic of Tanzania and the United States.As of October 31, 2024, a significant percentage of the Underlying Index was comprised of issuers from the United States.The fund will concentrate its investments (i.e., hold 25% or more of its total assets) in a particular industry or group of industries to the extent that its Underlying Index is concentrated. As of October 31, 2024, a significant percentage of the Underlying Index was comprised of issuers in the consumer cyclical sector. The fund’s exposure to particular sectors or countries may change over time to correspond to changes in the Underlying Index.Under normal circumstances, the Underlying Index is rebalanced on the last calendar day of the month, based on information available up to and including the third business day before the last business day of the month. New issues must settle on or before the following calendar month end in order to qualify for the coming month. No changes are made to constituent holdings other than on month end rebalancing dates. The fund rebalances its portfolio in accordance with the Underlying Index, and, therefore, any changes to the Underlying Index’s rebalance schedule will result in corresponding changes to the fund’s rebalance schedule.The fund is currently classified as “non-diversified” under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended, it may operate as or become classified as “diversified” over time.The Underlying Index is sponsored by ICE Data Indices, LLC (“ICE” or “Index Provider”), which is not affiliated with or sponsored by the fund or the Advisor. The Index Provider develops the Underlying Index methodology and determines the composition and relative weightings of the securities in the Underlying Index and publishes information regarding the market value of the Underlying Index. The fund is not sponsored, endorsed, sold or promoted by ICE, its affiliates or its third party suppliers.Securities lending. The fund may lend securities (up to one-third of total assets) to approved institutions, such as registered broker-dealers, pooled investment vehicles, banks and other financial institutions. In connection with such loans, the fund receives liquid collateral in an amount that is based on the type and value of the securities being lent, with riskier securities generally requiring higher levels of collateral. | ||

| Xtrackers USD High Yield BB-B ex Financials ETF | Risk Nondiversified Status [Member] | ||||
| Risk Return Abstract | rr_RiskReturnAbstract | |||
| Risk [Text Block] | rr_RiskTextBlock | Non-diversification risk. The fund is classified as non-diversified under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended. This means that the fund may invest in securities of relatively few issuers. Thus, the performance of one or a small number of portfolio holdings can affect overall performance. | ||
| Xtrackers USD High Yield BB-B ex Financials ETF | Risk Lose Money [Member] | ||||
| Risk Return Abstract | rr_RiskReturnAbstract | |||
| Risk [Text Block] | rr_RiskTextBlock | As with any investment, you could lose all or part of your investment in the fund, and the fund’s performance could trail that of other investments. The fund is subject to the main risks noted below, any of which may adversely affect the fund’s net asset value (“NAV”), trading price, yield, total return and ability to meet its investment objective, as well as other risks that are described in greater detail in the section of this Prospectus entitled “Additional Information About Fund Strategies, Underlying Index Information and Risks” and in the Statement of Additional Information (“SAI”). | ||
| Xtrackers USD High Yield BB-B ex Financials ETF | Risk Not Insured Depository Institution [Member] | ||||
| Risk Return Abstract | rr_RiskReturnAbstract | |||
| Risk [Text Block] | rr_RiskTextBlock | An investment in the fund is not a deposit of a bank and is not insured or guaranteed by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation or any other governmental agency. | ||
| Xtrackers USD High Yield BB-B ex Financials ETF | Risk Fixed Income Securities [Member] | ||||
| Risk Return Abstract | rr_RiskReturnAbstract | |||
| Risk [Text Block] | rr_RiskTextBlock | Fixed income securities risk. Fixed-income securities are subject to the risk of the issuer’s inability to meet principal and interest payments on its obligations (i.e., credit risk) and are subject to price volatility resulting from, among other things, interest rate sensitivity, market perception of the creditworthiness of the issuer, willingness of broker-dealers and other market participants to make markets in the applicable securities, and general market liquidity (i.e., market risk). Lower rated fixed-income securities have greater volatility because there is less certainty that principal and interest payments will be made as scheduled. There is a risk that a lack of liquidity or other adverse credit market conditions may hamper the fund’s ability to sell the debt securities in which it invests or to find and purchase debt instruments included in the Underlying Index. | ||
| Xtrackers USD High Yield BB-B ex Financials ETF | Risk Market Disruption [Member] | ||||
| Risk Return Abstract | rr_RiskReturnAbstract | |||
| Risk [Text Block] | rr_RiskTextBlock | Market disruption risk. Economies and financial markets throughout the world have become increasingly interconnected, which has increased the likelihood that events or conditions in one country or region will adversely impact markets or issuers in other countries or regions. This includes reliance on global supply chains that are susceptible to disruptions resulting from, among other things, war and other armed conflicts, extreme weather events, and natural disasters. Such supply chain disruptions can lead to, and have led to, economic and market disruptions that have far-reaching effects on financial markets worldwide. The value of the fund’s investments may be negatively affected by adverse changes in overall economic or market conditions, such as the level of economic activity and productivity, unemployment and labor force participation rates, inflation or deflation (and expectations for inflation or deflation), interest rates, demand and supply for particular products or resources including labor, and debt levels and credit ratings, among other factors. Such adverse conditions may contribute to an overall economic contraction across entire economies or markets, which may negatively impact the profitability of issuers operating in those economies or markets. In addition, geopolitical and other globally interconnected occurrences, including war, terrorism, economic uncertainty or financial crises, contagion, trade disputes, government debt crises (including defaults or downgrades) or uncertainty about government debt payments, government shutdowns, public health crises, natural disasters, supply chain disruptions, climate change and related events or conditions, have led, and in the future may lead, to disruptions in the US and world economies and markets, which may increase financial market volatility and have significant adverse direct or indirect effects on the fund and its investments. Adverse market conditions or disruptions could cause the fund to lose money, experience significant redemptions, and encounter operational difficulties. Although multiple asset classes may be affected by adverse market conditions or a particular market disruption, the duration and effects may not be the same for all types of assets.Current military and other armed conflicts in various geographic regions, including those in Europe and the Middle East, can lead to, and have led to, economic and market disruptions, which may not be limited to the geographic region in which the conflict is occurring. Such conflicts can also result, and have resulted in some cases, in sanctions being levied by the United States, the European Union and/or other countries against countries or other actors involved in the conflict. In addition, such conflicts and related sanctions can adversely affect regional and global energy, commodities, financial and other markets and thus could affect the value of the fund's investments. The extent and duration of any military conflict, related sanctions and resulting economic and market disruptions are impossible to predict, but could be substantial.Other market disruption events include pandemic spread of viruses, such as the novel coronavirus known as COVID-19, which have caused significant uncertainty, market volatility, decreased economic and other activity, increased government activity, including economic stimulus measures, and supply chain disruptions. While COVID-19 is no longer considered to be a public health emergency, the fund and its investments may be adversely affected by lingering effects of this virus or future pandemic spread of viruses.In addition, markets are becoming increasingly susceptible to disruption events resulting from the use of new and emerging technologies to engage in cyber-attacks or to take over the websites and/or social media accounts of companies, governmental entities or public officials, or to otherwise pose as or impersonate such, which then may be used to disseminate false or misleading information that can cause volatility in financial markets or for the securities of a particular company, group of companies, industry or other class of assets.Adverse market conditions or particular market disruptions, such as those discussed above, may magnify the impact of each of the other risks described in this “MAIN RISKS” section and may increase volatility in one or more markets in which the fund invests leading to the potential for greater losses for the fund. | ||
| Xtrackers USD High Yield BB-B ex Financials ETF | Risk Inflation [Member] | ||||
| Risk Return Abstract | rr_RiskReturnAbstract | |||
| Risk [Text Block] | rr_RiskTextBlock | Inflation risk. Inflation risk is the risk that the real value of certain assets or real income from investments (the value of such assets or income after accounting for inflation) will be less in the future as inflation decreases the value of money. Inflation, and investors’ expectation of future inflation, can impact the current value of the fund's portfolio, resulting in lower asset values and losses to shareholders. This risk may be elevated compared to historical market conditions and could be impacted by monetary policy measures and the current interest rate environment. | ||
| Xtrackers USD High Yield BB-B ex Financials ETF | Risk High Yield Securities [Member] | ||||
| Risk Return Abstract | rr_RiskReturnAbstract | |||
| Risk [Text Block] | rr_RiskTextBlock | High yield securities risk. Securities that are rated below investment-grade (commonly referred to as “junk bonds,” including those bonds rated lower than “BBB-” by Standard & Poor’s Ratings Services and Fitch, Inc. or “Baa3” by Moody’s Investors Services, Inc.), or are unrated, may be deemed speculative and may be more volatile than higher rated securities of similar maturity with respect to the issuer’s continuing ability to meet principal and interest payments. High-yield debt securities’ total return and yield may generally be expected to fluctuate more than the total return and yield of investment-grade debt securities. A real or perceived economic downturn or an increase in market interest rates could cause a decline in the value of high-yield debt securities, result in increased redemptions and/or result in increased portfolio turnover, which could result in a decline in the NAV of the fund, reduce liquidity for certain investments and/or increase costs. High-yield debt securities are often thinly traded and can be more difficult to sell and value accurately than investment-grade debt securities because there may be no established secondary market. Investments in high-yield debt securities could increase liquidity risk for the fund. In addition, the market for high-yield debt securities could experience sudden and sharp volatility, which is generally associated more with investments in stocks. | ||
| Xtrackers USD High Yield BB-B ex Financials ETF | Risk Interest Rate [Member] | ||||
| Risk Return Abstract | rr_RiskReturnAbstract | |||
| Risk [Text Block] | rr_RiskTextBlock | Interest rate risk. When interest rates rise, prices of debt securities generally decline. The longer the duration of the fund’s debt securities, the more sensitive the fund will be to interest rate changes. (As a general rule, a 1% rise in interest rates means a 1% fall in value for every year of duration.) Interest rates can change in response to the supply and demand for credit, government and/or central bank monetary policy and action, inflation rates and other factors. Recent and potential future changes in monetary policy made by central banks or governments are likely to affect the level of interest rates. Changing interest rates may have unpredictable effects on markets, may result in heightened market volatility and potential illiquidity and may detract from fund performance to the extent the fund is exposed to such interest rates and/or volatility. Rising interest rates could cause the value of the fund's investments — and therefore its share price as well — to decline. A rising interest rate environment may cause investors to move out of fixed-income securities and related markets on a large scale, which could adversely affect the price and liquidity of such securities and could also result in increased redemptions from the fund. | ||
| Xtrackers USD High Yield BB-B ex Financials ETF | Risk Credit [Member] | ||||
| Risk Return Abstract | rr_RiskReturnAbstract | |||
| Risk [Text Block] | rr_RiskTextBlock | Credit risk. The fund’s performance could be hurt if an issuer of a debt security suffers an adverse change in financial condition that results in a payment default, security downgrade or inability to meet a financial obligation. Credit risk is greater for lower-rated securities. Because the issuers of junk bonds may be in uncertain financial health, the prices of their debt securities could be more vulnerable to bad economic news, or even the expectation of bad news, than investment-grade debt securities. Credit ratings may not be an accurate assessment of credit risk. | ||
| Xtrackers USD High Yield BB-B ex Financials ETF | Risk Prepayment [Member] | ||||
| Risk Return Abstract | rr_RiskReturnAbstract | |||
| Risk [Text Block] | rr_RiskTextBlock | Prepayment and extension risk. When interest rates fall, issuers of high interest debt obligations may pay off the debts earlier than expected (prepayment risk), and the fund may have to reinvest the proceeds at lower yields. When interest rates rise, issuers of lower interest debt obligations may pay off the debts later than expected (extension risk), thus keeping the fund’s assets tied up in lower interest debt obligations. Ultimately, any changes or unexpected behavior in interest rates could increase the volatility of the fund’s share price and yield and could hurt fund performance. | ||
| Xtrackers USD High Yield BB-B ex Financials ETF | Risk Foreign Investment [Member] | ||||
| Risk Return Abstract | rr_RiskReturnAbstract | |||
| Risk [Text Block] | rr_RiskTextBlock | Foreign investment risk. The fund faces the risks inherent in foreign investing. Adverse political, economic or social developments could undermine the value of the fund's foreign investments, prevent the fund from realizing the full value of its foreign investments or prevent the fund from selling foreign securities it holds. Financial reporting standards for companies based in foreign markets differ from those in the US. Additionally, foreign securities markets generally are smaller and less liquid than US markets.Foreign governments may restrict investment by foreigners, limit withdrawal of trading profit or currency from the country, restrict currency exchange or seize foreign investments. In addition, the fund may be limited in its ability to exercise its legal rights or enforce a counterparty's legal obligations in certain jurisdictions outside of the US. The foreign investments of the fund may also be subject to foreign withholding taxes. Foreign brokerage commissions and other fees are generally higher than those for US investments, and the transactions and custody of foreign assets may involve delays in payment, delivery or recovery of money or investments.Foreign markets can have liquidity risks beyond those typical of US markets. Because foreign exchanges generally are smaller and less liquid than US exchanges, buying and selling foreign investments can be more difficult and costly. Relatively small transactions can sometimes materially affect the price and availability of securities. In certain situations, it may become virtually impossible to sell an investment at a price that approaches portfolio management’s estimate of its value. For the same reason, it may at times be difficult to value the fund’s foreign investments. In addition, because non-US markets may be open on days when the fund does not price its shares, the value of the foreign securities in the fund’s portfolio may change on days when shareholders will not be able to purchase or sell the fund’s shares. | ||
| Xtrackers USD High Yield BB-B ex Financials ETF | Risk Geographic Focus [Member] | ||||
| Risk Return Abstract | rr_RiskReturnAbstract | |||
| Risk [Text Block] | rr_RiskTextBlock | Geographic focus risk. Focusing investments in a single country or few countries, or regions, involves increased political, regulatory and other risks. Market swings in such a targeted country, countries or regions are likely to have a greater effect on fund performance than they would in a more geographically diversified fund. | ||
| Xtrackers USD High Yield BB-B ex Financials ETF | Risk Focus [Member] | ||||
| Risk Return Abstract | rr_RiskReturnAbstract | |||
| Risk [Text Block] | rr_RiskTextBlock | Focus risk. To the extent that the fund focuses its investments in particular industries, asset classes or sectors of the economy, any market price movements, regulatory or technological changes, or economic conditions affecting companies in those industries, asset classes or sectors may have a significant impact on the fund’s performance. The fund may become more focused in particular industries, asset classes or sectors of the economy as a result of changes in the valuation of the fund’s investments or fluctuations in the fund’s assets, and the fund is not required to reduce such exposures under these circumstances. | ||
| Xtrackers USD High Yield BB-B ex Financials ETF | Risk Consumer Cyclical Sector [Member] | ||||
| Risk Return Abstract | rr_RiskReturnAbstract | |||
| Risk [Text Block] | rr_RiskTextBlock | Consumer cyclical sector risk. To the extent that the fund invests significantly in the consumer cyclical sector, the fund will be sensitive to changes in, and the fund’s performance may depend to a greater extent on, the overall condition of the consumer cyclical sector. Companies engaged in the consumer cyclical sector are subject to fluctuations in supply and demand. These companies may also be adversely affected by changes in consumer spending as a result of world events, political and economic conditions, commodity price volatility, changes in exchange rates, imposition of import controls, increased competition, depletion of resources and labor relations. | ||
| Xtrackers USD High Yield BB-B ex Financials ETF | Risk Restricted Securities [Member] | ||||
| Risk Return Abstract | rr_RiskReturnAbstract | |||
| Risk [Text Block] | rr_RiskTextBlock | Restricted securities/Rule 144A securities risk. The fund may invest in securities offered pursuant to Rule 144A under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “1933 Act”), which are restricted securities. They may be less liquid and more difficult to value than other investments because such securities may not be readily marketable in broad public markets. The fund may not be able to sell a restricted security promptly or at a reasonable price. Although there is a substantial institutional market for Rule 144A securities, it is not possible to predict exactly how the market for Rule 144A securities will develop. A restricted security that was liquid at the time of purchase may subsequently become illiquid and its value may decline as a result. Restricted securities that are deemed illiquid will count towards the fund’s 15% limitation on illiquid securities. In addition, transaction costs may be higher for restricted securities than for more liquid securities. The fund may have to bear the expense of registering Rule 144A securities for resale and the risk of substantial delays in effecting the registration. | ||
| Xtrackers USD High Yield BB-B ex Financials ETF | Risk Liquidity [Member] | ||||
| Risk Return Abstract | rr_RiskReturnAbstract | |||
| Risk [Text Block] | rr_RiskTextBlock | Liquidity risk. In certain situations, it may be difficult or impossible to sell an investment at an acceptable price. This risk can be ongoing for any security that does not trade actively or in large volumes, for any security that trades primarily on smaller markets, and for investments that typically trade only among a limited number of large investors (such as restricted securities). In unusual market conditions, even normally liquid securities may be affected by a degree of liquidity risk. This may affect only certain securities or an overall securities market.Although the fund primarily seeks to redeem shares of the fund on an in-kind basis, if the fund is forced to sell underlying investments at reduced prices or under unfavorable conditions to meet redemption requests or other cash needs, the fund may suffer a loss or recognize a gain that may be distributed to shareholders as a taxable distribution. This may be magnified in a rising interest rate environment or other circumstances where redemptions from the fund may be higher than normal. | ||
| Xtrackers USD High Yield BB-B ex Financials ETF | Risk Pricing [Member] | ||||
| Risk Return Abstract | rr_RiskReturnAbstract | |||
| Risk [Text Block] | rr_RiskTextBlock | Pricing risk. If market conditions make it difficult to value some investments, the fund may value these investments using more subjective methods, such as fair value pricing. In such cases, the value determined for an investment could be different from the value realized upon such investment’s sale. | ||
| Xtrackers USD High Yield BB-B ex Financials ETF | Risk Issuer Specific [Member] | ||||
| Risk Return Abstract | rr_RiskReturnAbstract | |||
| Risk [Text Block] | rr_RiskTextBlock | Issuer-specific risk. The value of an individual security or particular type of security may be more volatile than the market as a whole and may perform differently from the value of the market as a whole. | ||
| Xtrackers USD High Yield BB-B ex Financials ETF | Risk Passive Investing [Member] | ||||
| Risk Return Abstract | rr_RiskReturnAbstract | |||
| Risk [Text Block] | rr_RiskTextBlock | Passive investing risk. Unlike a fund that is actively managed, in which portfolio management buys and sells securities based on research and analysis, the fund invests in securities included in, or representative of, the Underlying Index, regardless of their investment merits. Because the fund is designed to maintain a high level of exposure to the Underlying Index at all times, portfolio management generally will not buy or sell a security unless the security is added or removed, respectively, from the Underlying Index, and will not take any steps to invest defensively or otherwise reduce the risk of loss during market downturns. | ||
| Xtrackers USD High Yield BB-B ex Financials ETF | Risk Index Related [Member] | ||||
| Risk Return Abstract | rr_RiskReturnAbstract | |||
| Risk [Text Block] | rr_RiskTextBlock | Index-related risk. The fund seeks investment results that correspond generally to the performance, before fees and expenses, of the Underlying Index as published by the Index Provider. There is no assurance that the Index Provider will compile the Underlying Index accurately, or that the Underlying Index will be determined, composed or calculated accurately. The Index Provider may cease publication of the Underlying Index or may terminate the license agreement allowing the fund to use the Underlying Index, either of which could have a material adverse effect on the fund. Market disruptions could cause delays in the Underlying Index’s reconstitution and rebalancing schedule. During any such delay, it is possible that the Underlying Index and, in turn, the fund will deviate from the Underlying Index’s stated methodology and therefore experience returns different than those that would have been achieved under a normal reconstitution and rebalancing schedule. Generally, the Index Provider does not provide any warranty, or accept any liability, with respect to the quality, accuracy or completeness of the Underlying Index or its related data, and does not guarantee that the Underlying Index will be in line with its stated methodology. Errors in the Underlying Index data, the Underlying Index computations and/or the construction of the Underlying Index in accordance with its stated methodology may occur from time to time and may not be identified and corrected by the Index Provider for a period of time or at all, which may have an adverse impact on the fund and its shareholders. The Advisor may have limited ability to detect such errors and neither the Advisor nor its affiliates provide any warranty or guarantee against such errors. Therefore, the gains, losses or costs associated with the Index Provider’s errors will generally be borne by the fund and its shareholders.Index-related risk may be higher for a fund that tracks an index comprised of, or an index that includes, foreign securities because regulatory and reporting requirements may differ from those in the US, resulting in a heightened risk of errors in the index data, index computation and/or index construction due to unreliable, outdated or unavailable information. | ||

| Risk [Text Block] | rr_RiskTextBlock | Tracking error risk. The fund may be subject to tracking error, which is the divergence of the fund’s performance from that of the Underlying Index. The performance of the fund may diverge from that of the Underlying Index for a number of reasons, including operating expenses, transaction costs, cash flows and operational inefficiencies. The fund’s return also may diverge from the return of the Underlying Index because the fund bears the costs and risks associated with buying and selling securities (especially when reconstituting or rebalancing the fund’s securities holdings to reflect changes in the Underlying Index) while such costs and risks are not factored into the return of the Underlying Index. Transaction costs, including brokerage costs, will decrease the fund’s NAV to the extent not offset by the transaction fee payable by an “Authorized Participant” (“AP”). Market disruptions and regulatory restrictions could have an adverse effect on the fund’s ability to adjust its exposure in order to track the Underlying Index. Moreover, the use of a representative sampling investment approach (i.e., investing in a representative selection of securities included in the Underlying Index rather than all securities in the Underlying Index) may cause the fund’s return to not be as well correlated with the return of the Underlying Index as would be the case if the fund purchased all of the securities in the Underlying Index in the proportions represented in the Underlying Index. In addition, the fund may not be able to invest in certain securities included in the Underlying Index, or invest in them in the exact proportions in which they are represented in the Underlying Index, due to government imposed legal restrictions or limitations, a lack of liquidity in the markets in which such securities trade, potential adverse tax consequences or other reasons. To the extent the fund calculates its net asset value based on fair value prices and the value of the Underlying Index is based on market prices (i.e., the value of the Underlying Index is not based on fair value prices), the fund’s ability to track the Underlying Index may be adversely affected. Tracking error risk may be heightened during times of increased market volatility or other unusual market conditions. For tax purposes, the fund may sell certain securities, and such sale may cause the fund to recognize a taxable gain or a loss and deviate from the performance of the Underlying Index. In light of the factors discussed above, the fund’s return may deviate significantly from the return of the Underlying Index.Tracking error risk may be higher for funds that track indices with significant weight in foreign issuers than funds that do not track such indices. | ||

| Risk Return Abstract | rr_RiskReturnAbstract | |||
| Risk [Text Block] | rr_RiskTextBlock | Market price risk. Fund shares are listed for trading on an exchange and are bought and sold in the secondary market at market prices. The market prices of shares will fluctuate, in some cases materially, in response to changes in the NAV and supply and demand for shares. As a result, the trading prices of shares may deviate significantly from the NAV during periods of market volatility. The Advisor cannot predict whether shares will trade above, below or at their NAV. Given the fact that shares can be created and redeemed in Creation Units (defined below), the Advisor believes that large discounts or premiums to the NAV of shares should not be sustained in the long-term. If market makers exit the business or are unable to continue making markets in fund shares, shares may trade at a discount to NAV like closed-end fund shares and may even face delisting (that is, investors would no longer be able to trade shares in the secondary market). Further, while the creation/redemption feature is designed to make it likely that shares normally will trade close to the value of the fund’s holdings, disruptions to creations and redemptions, including disruptions at market makers, APs or market participants, or during periods of significant market volatility, may result in market prices that differ significantly from the value of the fund’s holdings. Although market makers will generally take advantage of differences between the NAV and the market price of fund shares through arbitrage opportunities, there is no guarantee that they will do so. In addition, the securities held by the fund may be traded in markets that close at a different time than the exchange on which the fund’s shares trade. Liquidity in those securities may be reduced after the applicable closing times. Accordingly, during the time when the exchange is open but after the applicable market closing, fixing or settlement times, bid-ask spreads and the resulting premium or discount to the shares’ NAV is likely to widen. If the markets for the fund’s portfolio securities experience decreased liquidity, the trading markets for the fund’s shares may also become less liquid with corresponding widening in the bid-ask spreads and differences between the market price and NAV of the fund’s shares. Further, secondary markets may be subject to irregular trading activity, wide bid-ask spreads and extended trade settlement periods, which could cause a material decline in the fund’s NAV. The fund’s investment results are measured based upon the daily NAV of the fund. Investors purchasing and selling shares in the secondary market may not experience investment results consistent with those experienced by those APs creating and redeeming shares directly with the fund. | ||

| Risk [Text Block] | rr_RiskTextBlock | Operational and technology risk. Cyber-attacks, disruptions, or failures that affect the fund’s service providers or counterparties, issuers of securities held by the fund, or other market participants may adversely affect the fund and its shareholders, including by causing losses for the fund or impairing fund operations. For example, the fund’s or its service providers’ assets or sensitive or confidential information may be misappropriated, data may be corrupted and operations may be disrupted (e.g., cyber-attacks, operational failures or broader disruptions may cause the release of private shareholder information or confidential fund information, interfere with the processing of shareholder transactions, impact the ability to calculate the fund’s net asset value and impede trading). Market events and disruptions also may trigger a volume of transactions that overloads current information technology and communication systems and processes, impacting the ability to conduct the fund’s operations.While the fund and its service providers may establish business continuity and other plans and processes that seek to address the possibility of and fallout from cyber-attacks, disruptions or failures, there are inherent limitations in such plans and systems, including that they do not apply to third parties, such as fund counterparties, issuers of securities held by the fund or other market participants, as well as the possibility that certain risks have not been identified or that unknown threats may emerge in the future and there is no assurance that such plans and processes will be effective. Among other situations, disruptions (for example, pandemics or health crises) that cause prolonged periods of remote work or significant employee absences at the fund’s service providers could impact the ability to conduct the fund’s operations. In addition, the fund cannot directly control any cybersecurity plans and systems put in place by its service providers, fund counterparties, issuers of securities held by the fund or other market participants. | ||

| Risk Return Abstract | rr_RiskReturnAbstract | |||
| Risk [Text Block] | rr_RiskTextBlock | Authorized Participant concentration risk. The fund may have a limited number of financial institutions that may act as Authorized Participants (“APs”). Only APs who have entered into agreements with the fund’s distributor may engage in creation or redemption transactions directly with the fund (as described in the section of this Prospectus entitled “Buying and Selling Shares”). If those APs exit the business or are unable to process creation and/or redemption orders, (including in situations where APs have limited or diminished access to capital required to post collateral) and no other AP is able to step forward to create and redeem in either of these cases, shares may trade at a discount to NAV like closed-end fund shares and may even face delisting (that is, investors would no longer be able to trade shares in the secondary market). | ||
| Xtrackers USD High Yield BB-B ex Financials ETF | Risk Securities Lending [Member] | ||||
| Risk Return Abstract | rr_RiskReturnAbstract | |||
| Risk [Text Block] | rr_RiskTextBlock | Securities lending risk. Securities lending involves the risk that the fund may lose money because the borrower of the loaned securities fails to return the securities in a timely manner or at all. A delay in the recovery of loaned securities could interfere with the fund’s ability to vote proxies or settle transactions. Delayed settlement may limit the ability of the fund to reinvest the proceeds of a sale of securities or prevent the fund from selling securities at times that may be appropriate to track the Underlying Index. The fund could also lose money in the event of a decline in the value of the collateral provided for the loaned securities, or a decline in the value of any investments made with cash collateral or even a loss of rights in the collateral should the borrower of the securities fail financially while holding the securities. | ||
