API Metrics

In this article

The API metrics page in Monitor displays metrics for your API Manager Developer Portal. The graphs help you visualize API usage, performance, and troubleshoot errors. The selectable timeframe includes the last hour, 8 hours, 24 hours, or any 72-hour period in the last 45 days. A table below the graphs summarizes data by Task.

You can view metrics for assets to which you have read and write permissions. Environment admins can also monitor statistics that give a summary view and details about all APIs (Ultra and Triggered Tasks) running in the environment (Org).

Separate graphs report response and target errors, making it easier to determine if the error occurred because of an API policy configuration or originated from the Pipeline runtime. Latency metrics can help you fine-tune the efficiency of API traffic control policies.

The All API Details table lists the APIs that are handling the most requests. The default API order is requests per minute, giving you a view of the top 10. You can also sort by error percentage and latency to analyze the problems API consumers are facing when ingesting APIs from the developer portal.

The Monitor API metrics page provides data on usage, latency, and the number and type of errors API consumers face. Understanding these metrics can help you decide on the combination of policies that best protect the APIs published to the developer portal. You can download graph data as a .csv file, collect metrics over time, and analyze usage patterns.

Refer to API metrics for more information on the graphs, the table, and how to use them. Troubleshooting APIM requests and Ultra Tasks provides information on identifying, analyzing, and remediating issues.
