Accessing analytics in the API Manager UI
How to view, analyze, and export your analytics data from the API Manager UI.
Analytics data is displayed in dashboards in the API Manager UI. Dashboards are scoped at the provider organization, catalog, and space level.
The ability to access analytics data at a catalog or space level depends on your assigned roles and permissions. For more information about catalogs and spaces, see Working with catalogs and Using syndication in API Connect.
- In the API
Manager UI,
select Manage
in the navigation panel. - From the list of available catalogs in the API Manager Dashboard, select the required catalog.
- Optional: If spaces are enabled and want to see analytics at the
scope of a space, then:
- Click the Spaces tab.
- Select the space that you want to view.
- Click the Analytics tab.
Analytics dashboards
The analytics dashboards in the API Manager UI show the API event data at the scopes of provider organization, catalog, and space.
The provider organization scoped dashboards are accessed from the analytics icon 
in the navigation
panel. 
The space scoped dashboards are accessed from the Analytics tab when viewing the space.
- Summary: At a glance information on call volumes, latencies and when those calls are happening.
- Consumption: Total API calls in your cloud. Required for consumption-based licensing.
- APIs: Everything that you need to know about which APIs are being called and which ones aren't.
- Products : Which products are the most popular both in total and over time.
- Consumers: Determine which consumer organizations are making the most API calls in total and over time.
- Applications: Which applications are responsible for the most API calls both in total and over time.
- AI usage: Track AI token counts and model usage to see how AI services are being used.
- Status: Critical information on API call successes and failures, showing both success and failure rates over time along with an HTTP response code breakdown.
- Latency: How long APIs take to return a response, and the change in latency over time.
- Data transfer: All about request and response payloads. Which APIs, consumers and applications are responsible for the largest request and response payloads.
- Client information: Who is calling your APIs and from what
devices.Note: Only internet-accessible IP addresses can be resolved to a geographical location. Internal IP addresses are ignored.
- Gateway Operations: Call volume and latency information for each gateway in each gateway service. This information can be used to determine whether load is being spread evenly or if a gateway is underperforming.
Each chart in a dashboard can be exported as a PNG or JPG image. The source
data for each chart can be exported as a JSON or CSV file. To export a chart, click
Actions at the upper right:
It is also possible to enlarge the chart to full-screen by clicking 
. To see
the source data in tabular form click

Discover view
By default the Dashboards tab is displayed. To view your API event data in tabular form, select Discover:
The maximum
number of API events that can be accessed from the UI is 10,000. The maximum number of event records
that can be displayed per page on the Discover view is 200.
You can customize the columns displayed in the Filters section.
You can switch the timeline chart to a logarithmic y axis, and export the data for the chart by clicking Actions at the upper right of the chart:
You can export the API event data from the table by clicking Actions at the upper right of the table:
If you see unexpected HTTP OPTIONS events in the Discover view, these events are due to CORS requests from browser-based API test tools. For more information about test tools and the OPTIONS call, see Testing an API.
Filtering displayed data
You can filter the data that is displayed in the Dashboards and
Discover view by defining filters (also called queries
). Expand the
Filters section to view, define, and apply queries to your displayed
data:
- Shared queries are visible to all users at the same scope. They are not visible to users in a different scope. For example, a query that Cloud Manager UI users shares is not visible to an API Manager UI user. Within the API Manager UI, a query that is created at catalog scope is not visible to users who are viewing analytics data at provider organization scope.
- Other users cannot edit or delete queries that you share, but they can create a duplicate query, which they can edit and share.
- All queries have a name and an optional description. The name does not need to be unique.
Saved queries can be exported as strings for use in REST API and toolkit CLI queries, for example:
copies
the following string to the clipboard: timeframe=last7daysReports view
Call volume trends shows your most and least active APIs, total successful
and failed API calls, total bytes sent and received, and totals based on scope.
Consumer trends shows the number of consumers and subscription and
applications counts over time: 
Consumption report shows long-term trends for API calls processed by
gateways, which are essential for consumption-based licensing insights.
Inactive products shows products that have no subscriptions, and products
that have no traffic.
Inactive consumer organizations shows consumer organizations that have no
applications, subscriptions, recent traffic, or no traffic at all.
Deprecated products shows products that are deprecated but are still
receiving traffic.
The API call volume leaderboards section shows leaderboards for APIs,
Products, Plans, Applications, Consumer organizations, Gateway services and Breakdown by catalog.
