Use Cloud Monitoring

Application Integration is synchronouslyintegrated with Cloud Monitoring. This means that for all yourpublished integrations, the integration metrics, usage data, and alerts are automatically ingested during the execution of your integrations.

To get a comprehensive summary of all the telemetry sent from Application Integration to Cloud Monitoring, go to theManage Integrations page in Cloud Monitoring. TheManage Integrations page lists all the metrics ingested from Application Integration. You can also view details about the available sample dashboards and alert policies in theManage Integrations page.

You can visualize your Application Integration metrics and data using the following Cloud Monitoring tools:

• Sample dashboards
• Custom dashboards
• Metrics Explorer

Before you begin

Before you use Cloud Monitoring, ensure that you do the following:

• Enable the Cloud Monitoring API.

  Roles required to enable APIs

  To enable APIs, you need the Service Usage Admin IAM role (roles/serviceusage.serviceUsageAdmin), which contains theserviceusage.services.enable permission.Learn how to grant roles.

  Enable the API

• Verify that billing is enabled for your Google Cloud project.

Access metrics using sample dashboards

Application Integration provides sample dashboard definitions that present charts containing metrics relevant to integration executions, step executions, and data processing during these executions. You can import and install these sample dashboards in Cloud Monitoring to create custom dashboards.

1. In the Google Cloud console, go to theMonitoring page:

   Go to Monitoring page

2. In the navigation pane, selectDashboards, and go to theSample library tab.
3. InCategories, selectApplication Integration to view the list ofsample dashboards.
4. ClickImport.

Once the sample dashboard is installed, you can view and edit the installed dashboards in theDashboard list tab.

For more information about installing sample dashboards, seeInstall sample dashboards.

Sample dashboards

The following sample dashboards are available for Application Integration resources:

Access metrics using custom dashboards

To create custom monitoring dashboards for your Application Integration resources in your Google Cloud project, do the following:

1. In the Google Cloud console, go to theCloud Monitoring > Dashboard Overview page:

   Go to Dashboard Overview page

2. ClickCreate dashboard.
3. Optionally modify the name of the dashboard.
4. Click or drag and drop a chart on the canvas.
5. In the chart configuration properties, perform the following:
   1. Expand theResource & Metric menu and selectIntegration Version as theActive resource.
   2. Choose the desiredmetrics that you want to visualize.
   3. ClickApply.
6. Add additional charts to your dashboard as desired.

For more information about custom dashboards, seeCreate and manage custom dashboards.

Access metrics using Metrics Explorer

The Cloud MonitoringMetric Explorer helps you build temporary metric charts to visualize the avialable resource metrics for you Google Cloud project. Once you have created a metric chart, if desired, you can also save it to a custom monitoring dashboard.

To create a chart using the Application Integration resource metrics, do the following:

1. In the Google Cloud console, go to theCloud Monitoring > Metrics explorer page:

   Go to Metrics explorer page

2. In theSelect a metric pane, expand theMetric menu and selectIntegration Version as theActive resource.
3. Choose the desiredmetrics that you want to visualize.
4. ClickApply.

You can also select filters, group by metric labels, perform aggregations, and select chart viewing options using the Metric Explorer. For more information, seeCreate charts with Metrics Explorer.

Considerations

• Monitoring metrics are generated only for published integrations.
• Step execution count metrics won't be computed for tasks that are skipped during the execution of an integration.
• All the performance metric data that is diaplayed in the Monitoring dashboards are for informational purpose only. The aggregated performance metric data might not be 100% accurate.
• Cloud Monitoring metric values must not be used to calculate billing costs.
