Dashboard & Monitoring

Overview of the analytics features in Frends.

Frends Platform contains multiple levels of analytics and monitoring, from top-level performance and resource usage logs to integration execution logging to monitoring services and error handling that alert you if something happens. All of it presented in user friendly manner that is both easy to understand and flexible to adjust.

Dashboard

Dashboard is a comprehensive tool within the Frends Control Panel designed to provide users with a clear and concise overview of their system activities. It includes key metrics such as performance statistics and integration execution logs. The Dashboard offers customizable widgets that allow users to tailor the view according to their specific monitoring needs. Users can adjust settings to highlight critical alerts, track error occurrences, and monitor execution counts, thus enabling proactive management and swift response to any issues that may arise.

Frends Dashboard shows you a collection of widgets that provide data about Process executions.

Integration execution logs

Basis to majority of Frends logging, Process Instances contain information what happened during a single integration execution. At top level the instances contain information about when Process was executed, did it succeed and how long it took, as well as any results of the execution.

Error handling & Monitoring

Frends implements multiple ways to handle errors from Processes. While the best option is to have no errors, working with multiple external systems means not everything is controlled by Frends.

Frends includes multiple layers of error handling features available to use within Processes, around Processes and on Environment wide level.

Check out here on all the options for error handling and Process monitoring in Frends.

System logs

Frends platform provides logs to monitor the systems that are running your Frends Tenant.

Agent logs

Agent event logs, accessible under Administration and Environments, show system and Frends Agent events, showing what is happening in the background. Any unhandled errors from integrations, system errors and possible causes of more widespread issues are shown here for each Agent in your Tenant.

Filterable list of events from the Agent are shown under Environment administration.

API Monitoring

In order to monitor what is happening with your Frends APIs, the API monitoring page shows you all the connections made into your tenant, and what happened with them.

You can easily filter the log by API operation, status code of the response, and what method was used, to figure out what is happening. The logs include events for all requests made against your tenant, and not only the specified API endpoints, so you can also see all the unsolicited attempts made against your environment.

AI Audit Logs

Monitoring the use of AI is often critical for security and debugging, due to AI operating almost like a black box, without insight into why the specific decisions and actions were done.

AI audit logs in Frends provide visibility to what the AI is being used for in your Frends Tenant, as well as showing the amount of use AI receives and how much usage, measured in Frends credits, you have left from your Frends subscription. You can also configure additional Frends credits availability here.
