The requierement is monitoring APIC Reserved Instance (On IBM Cloud), to check if the service is UP or DOWN.
I'am going in two ways, first, try to use healthcheck status and gateway processing options to get the status, if this data achive the objetive, then I will automate this proceduer. And the second way is using IBM Observability.

Hi,
The answer will depend on what exactly you want to check.
Article that Jeroen cited is in fact a way to verify if synchronization between API Management and Gateway occurred at least once, which is useful to verify if gateway is ready for processing traffic. This is useful as monitor endpoint on load balancer. Wether the webapi-init-check endpoint is available on RI Gateway, you would need to check yourself.
What this does not check is if specific APIs are published correctly on the gateway.
What you can also do is check processing status for the gateway, which is described in this article:
Reviewing a gateway's processing status
which can be retrieved by this API call:
API Explorer
look for gateway_processing_status in response body.

Hi,
not sure if this is available on APIC Reserved Instance, but have a look at https://www.ibm.com/support/pages/how-properly-health-check-api-connect-gateway.

Hi,
Do you know how to monitoring an IBM Cloud APIC Reserved Instance v10 service status, if it's UP or DOWN for processing API execution ?
The request is undestand the way to monitoring something, may be a flag for example, that let me know if the IBM Cloud APIC RI service is OK, or has something wrong. I undestand IBM Cloud APIC SLA, but this doesn't give me peace of mind, I need to see a monitor on my own about the status of the service.
Have any idea to implement this ?
Regards
