Current Month graphs in Dashboards...
Is there a way to fix the current month availability widget so it shows the data starting from the left side being day 1 and then filling toward the right as the month progresses? The way it currently is, makes it seem as if data is missing for the first part of the month if you only glance at it.
REST API Transaction Monitoring
We're building a new monitor type for Site24x7 - one designed for modern web and mobile applications that rely heavily on REST API calls to the function. We'd like to gather feedback from our users, so please post your suggestions below. Modern web applications consist of web pages that use a large number REST API calls to retrieve data, perform actions, etc. Site24x7's REST API Transaction Monitor will allow you to perform synthetic monitoring of web application workflows without the overhead of

[Service Update] Scheduled Maintenance of our US Data Center: September 2nd, 2017 to September 10th 2017
Dear Customers, As a part of our annual infrastructure maintenance, we will be upgrading our US data center infrastructure from September 2nd, 2017 to September 10th 2017. During the upgrade process, Site24x7 service will continue to be operational and we do not anticipate any major disruptions in using our service. Nonetheless, we will still monitor things very closely and keep you posted about any issues. We will update this post once the data center maintenance is complete. Meanwhile, in case
[Service Update] Scheduled Maintenance of our US Data Center (17th December 2017 to 31st December 2017)
Dear Customers, Back in September 2017, we'd announced our annual infrastructure maintenance of our US Data Centers. Due to some unavoidable reasons, we had to postpone the scheduled maintenance then. This maintenance activity of our US Data Centres is now scheduled from 17th December 2017 to 31st December 2017. During the maintenance period, Site24x7 service will continue to be operational and we do not anticipate any major interruptions in using our service. We'll update this post once the Data
Tip #1 : How to get the most out of APM Insight Performance Graphs
We all use the Performance Graphs in APM Insight to assess our application's status using key metrics including Apdex Score, Response Time and Throughput. But did you know that every data point in the graph is clickable? Yes, and furthermore, it helps you to drill down for further analysis. These graphs are correlated with each other and a drop or increase in the graphs always communicate us the status of the application. Here's how you can find the needle in your haystack - Let's inspect the highest
AWS re:Invent 2017: A quick recap!
What an incredible event we've had this year, from the 3-day non-stop action at our booth during the Expo hours, the wonderful keynote by Andy Jassy, the numerous breakout sessions on various topics to all the fun and games at the entire event, we had it all, and it was simply AMAZING! We're sure you had made great connections and had learned things that you can use in your business immediately. We'd like to thank each and everyone who'd taken time out from their schedule to stop by at our booth
Monitoring SQL server
Due to the need to use specific SQL permissions, we are thinking about writing some SQL agent jobs that run a series of queries, compile that info and directly output the data in json format to a file. Is there a method for that json file to be directly ingested in to site 24x7? If not, would something as basic as writing a powershell script that reads the json file and spits it back out work?
Alert on group
I'd like the ability to alert off of a group's status. You are able to set "Monitor count threshold to decide the monitor group's status" but you can't then alert off of this. Our use case is that we group monitors by datacenter or zone and we'd like to create an escalated incident (via pagerduty) when the group hits a specific threshold. This allows us to page an "all hands on deck" type scenario.
Historical Access/Reports for APM Data - eg Average Response Times
Hi, It would be nice to be able to see an historical view of the apm data such as average response times, currently you can compare individual days but it would be nice to see a chart over a month for instance. The data is obviously available so this shouldn't be a major change. It would also be desirable to be able to export the data. Thanks, J
Maven repository for apminsight api jar
Hi, Is there a maven repository available for the apminsight-javaagent-api.jar file? I tried using the local repo method I found on https://devcenter.heroku.com/articles/local-maven-dependencies, but it isn't working with our multi-module project. Alternatively, would using my own classes for @ApmTracker annotations work? Thanks, Vaughn
Monitor OVH's vCenter
We want to monitor our vCenter that is hosted at OVH. Copy of the official support response bellow: Dear Jean, Thank you for your patience. As per the update from our development team, monitoring vCenter hosted by OVH is currently not supported in Site24x7.

Microsoft Teams is out there in an early release format. It is showing promise. Do you plan to create weeb hooks that can send status to Microsoft teams Chat sessions.
[Service Update] Scheduled Maintenance of our Europe Data Center (November 26, 2017 to December 03, 2017)
Dear Customers, As a part of our annual infrastructure maintenance at our Europe Data Center, we'll be switching Site24x7 service from our Primary Data Center in Amsterdam, Netherlands to our Secondary Data Center in Dublin, Ireland on November 26, 2017. At the end of the maintenance, we'll switch back to our Primary Data Center on December 03, 2017. To avoid any major hiccups, we'll perform this maintenance during non-business hours. https://www.site24x7.eu will continue to be accessible and we
Shutdown VM when it is idle for some time
Dear Team, We are looking for an option, when a VM is idle for x minutes it should be shutdown using IT automation on Site 24*7 and an email should be triggered to the respective team. This will help us a lot if we can get this feature available. Please let me know for additional details. Thanks Ravindar

Monitor Desktop App
Hello It's possible log Desktop App's Exceptions and Performance with an APM Agent?. I have reading the documentation and don't found anything that could help with that requirement. Thank you Matias
On Agent Restart Pagerduty is Notified Immediately - This should not happen
Problem: When I reload the agent on a linux machine, it IMMEDIATELY triggers a pagerduty notification. Ideally what I want is for it to wait - pause before escalating. It ends up triggering a lot of false alarms and annoys our DevOps team. Is there a way to change the priority or the immediacy of the pagerduty alert when it loses contact with the plugin/agent.
What MPM modes are supported in Apache?
We noticed that when we changed the MPM module setting in apache from worker to either prefork or event the PHP app was down according to Site24x7. It looks like the Site24x7 PHP agent only supports the worker module. Is there a reason why only worker module is supported? If the other modules are supposed to work, what setting can I change in the portal or the conf file to make other MPM modules work?

SIte24x7 : cannot get all performances data with REST API
Hello Community, I have the following problem. I have a Web Page Analyzer monitor running. I need to extract performance data via the REST API, particularly the Page Load Time. So, I use the following cURL call: curl "https://www.site24x7.com/api/reports/performance/xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx?period=3" -H 'Authorization: Zoho-authtoken yyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy' -k The result is: I have data related to response time but nothing related to other counters like "Page Load Time" (except in "Legends"). Is this normal
Status Page Announcements
Looking through the API I see that we can create and update status pages, but I do not see anything that would allow to me make calls to add announcements. We are trying add announcements and updates to status pages withought having someone manually do it. Any suggestions? Connor
Load page time using RBM
Hi, We are evaluating your platform and using the RBM feature with monitors all over the world hitting our test environments. The metrics we get from your tool are completely different from the real life user experience. For example - the Europe monitor shows 10s average page load time in the monitor, but real user experience of clients all over Europe, in the exact same timeframe, gives an average of 3-4 seconds per page. Can you shed some light exactly how you perform on your servers the RBM? Specifically,
Set blackout days for monitor alerts (HIGH PRIORITY)
So Site24x7 allows you to set days of the week to not receive alerts but the problem with this, you can only set this up by user which only makes sense if that user is only responsible for one monitor but what if a user wants to keep being alerted for all but one of his monitors on weekends which is the request I received today. They have one monitor they want to mute on weekends but it's not possible to do so since the feature to block alerting on certain days only exists in the user settings not
Issue with attribute name for a custom plugin
I'm having some issues creating a custom plugin. It appears that any spaces in an attribute name are getting removed when displayed in the web client. For example, using the VBScript example located here... https://www.site24x7.com/help/admin/adding-a-monitor/plugins/windows-custom-plugins.html#vb-script. If I change the "Age" attribute to "Age at hire", when displayed in the web UI it shows as "Ageathire". Is this by design?
ElastiCache Monitoring: Now monitor Memcached and Redis protocol-compliant cache nodes with Site24x7.
Good day folks, Today, I am excited to announce that we are expanding our Amazon Web Services monitoring footprint a notch further by extending support to the caching layer. Now, Site24x7 account holders, both paid and eval can monitor the health and performance of their in-memory data stores and cache environment running the Redis or Memcached engine. This includes near real-time metric data, off-the-Shelf time series graph widgets, custom reports, and alarms that can scale with your dynamic environment.
Configuration Template - Services
I'm having issues with configuration templates. I have created a new template which I have added several windows services which are not in to auto monitor list, then associated with a Montior Group. When I either add a new or move an existing monitor into this group its not picking up the services I set in the configuration template. From the Configuration Template page if I select Bulk Associate to multiple monitors I can select my monitors and it applies successfully. Should anything added to a
Expand page titles to say more than "Site24x7"
When I click on the back button to see a list of pages to return to, I see a bunch of "Site24x7" entries that all look alike. It would be easier to see which back entry to click if each page title was more specific about which page within Site24x7 it was.
Plugin - Combine monitored attributes into 1 graph
I created a Plugin monitor to monitor 8 application queues. This results in 8 different graphs. Is it possible to combine all of them into 1 graph instead ?
More control over exception/error monitoring
Hi, We're in the process of migrating from New Relic, and the only thing we're missing is the java lib that has NewRelic.noticeError(message/exception). We used it a lot when we handled exceptions, but needed to notify New Relic anyway, so we could build alerts about service degradation etc. The other problem is that in our Spring app we handle all exceptions in @ControllerAdvice to send the right user-facing error codes + messages, which means we never see exceptions in Site24x7. The same for batch
APM Java agent - about tracking errors
Hi all, I am monitoring my Java app using Site24*7. And I want to add some custom application information to tracking data(e.g. like adding internal transaction id and being able to see that data on monitor). But I could not find a way to do it on documents. Is there a way to add that info? Also when I use Spring's Controller Advice classes to handle exceptions, my exceptions are not monitored as errors so I can not get java traces for that errors. Is there a way to get trace of those exceptions
Add Actions to Plugins
Hi, please enable Action execution for Plugin based monitors as well. Currently a Plugin can only execute a Third Party Integration but not an action.
JSONPath expression failing
I have a REST API Monitor configured for a very simple API endpoint in my system, but the monitor is reporting that my JSONPath expression is failing. The endpoint returns the following with Content-Type: application/json: {"codeVersion":"1.0.0","apiVersion":"1.0.0"} The monitor is configured for JSON response format and I've tried several different JSONPATH values: $.apiVersion -- for this I got "JSON Path expression assertion "["$.apiVersion"]" has failed" apiVersion -- for this I got "JSON Path

Add actual website URL to website scheduled reports
The scheduled reports of websites does not have the actual URL of the website/application. This should be included in future release.
Delete monitor for server in autoscaling
Hi all, i'm planning to use server monitoring and docker monitoring in server created by autoscaling. It's clear how install and configure , but is not clear to me how delete servers when they are terminated or stopped. Trying disinstalling agent will not solve issue because i still have servers in red state. Regards, Enrico Casti
Windows Service Restart
Hello all, I am looking for a way to run a custom action when a down action is detected on a windows service. I would like 24x7 to automatically restart a service when it sees that it is down. Is this possible to do?
Office 365 monitoring - missing Skype data in the dashboard
Hello, I have the following issue with O365 monitoring. In the Skype tab, I have no information at all regarding Active Sessions and Active Conferences. No matter which timeframe, I have no information. In the Exchange tab, same thing for incoming/outgoing mail traffic. Concerning Mailboxes and Mail Groups, when I select the "This week" timeframe, nothing is displayed. I have data for "Last week" timeframe. Does anyone have an idea ? Which of the prerequisites is responsible for collecting the data?
More features for Synthetic/Real Browser Checks
We are looking at expanding into the Synthetics realm and have a few concerns with the current setup of this monitor type in Site24x7. When setting the checks up it would be nice to be able to have options in the recorder for things like not recording mouse overs. Other features that would be nice to have would be: Ability to show assets that load during each step by showing waterfall for each page load step. Ability to group assets by 1st or 3rd party Ability to set alert thresholds based on if
