Hello, I'm using REST API for Instana, in particular Instana API docs . The objects returned contain links section with useful URLs. For Application besides the regular "self" entry there is a "services" entry and URL format for it does not match the format described for /applications/services...
In today's DevOps reality, observability isn't optional—it's foundational. Between Kubernetes, microservices, CI/CD, and multicloud deployments, visibility isn't just about uptime; it's about engineering velocity, cost control, and collaboration across personas. That's where Instana comes in....
It would be nice if you could check already deployed agents keys if you change the backend keys after a POC and verifiy who agents need to be updated.
There is not. This data is static. Just like the backend server's URL, the download key is the unique identifier that you also need for agent-backend communication. Once you have it it doesn't not change. What is your use case where you wouldn't know your own key?
instana agent deployed using YAML file , we can reach the secret using UI by going Home--> agent deployment --> openshift-YAML. but can we automate this by using REST API calls to get the download keys?
Some of the REST API calls overlap for OIDC, LDAP, and SAML. Does Create group mapping meet the need? FYI - the search available in the upper left of https://instana.github.io/openapi/ will locate relevant endpoints, some of which have rather general names.
we are testing the automation for configuring instana OIDC using API instead of the user interface, i can see from documenation that we can delete OIDC configs but there is no mention of creating one ? is it possible to use API calls to configure OIDC?
Hi Atanas, It may not see straight-forward but since Business Monitoring relies on the Application Monitoring we can get the data we need. Go to your Business Monitoring Click in your process and then click in "Analyze Instances" Just after Group, in the far right click in "API Query " You can...
Hi Venkata: I wrote a Python script to send metrics through the StatsD sensor in the agent. In Python, we use the socket module because this module provides an interface for working with network communication (to communicate using protocols like TCP or UDP). Review the Monitoring StatsD...
