Template Variables
The plugin supports template Variables, allowing you to create more interactive and dynamic dashboards. Instead of hard-coding things like tag, group, and check in your metric queries, you can use variables in their place. Variables are displayed under dropdown lists.
Events
Analyze all events triggered in your Apica system for any given time, including both Custom Events and normal events
Query Supported Levels: [Account, Tag, Check]
Used Apica API:
All Events: GET /events
Custom Events: GET /custom_events
Annotations
The plugin supports annotations by overlaying events like custom events on top of the graphs. When you hover over an annotation, you can get the event description.
For example, the screenshot below shows a custom event for a deployment that happened on the highlighted time range as an annotation.
