Monitoring API Certificates
Learn how to monitor the Azure API Management Service Certificates.
Nodinite also has Monitoring for these other Azure API Management Service types:
This page provides documentation about Azure API Management Service Certificate Monitoring options using Nodinite from one or more role-based Monitor Views. Nodinite monitors the state Azure API Management Service Certificates, as specified by user-defined thresholds, either global or specific. You can manage configured Azure API Management Services Certificates; Remote commands are available as Actions to help you swiftly address reported problems. The Remote Actions are detailed on the Managing Azure API Management Service Certificates page.
Example list of monitored Azure API Management Services Certificates in a Nodinite Monitor View.
Monitoring Features
- State Evaluation - Provide state according to user-defined thresholds.
If Nodinite can't check your Azure API Management Service items' state, chances are no one else can use them either.
- Services have Automatic Discovery
- The Nodinite Azure Agent makes use of the Azure Rest API. Hence, the Azure API Management Services Certificates are dynamically managed.
- Category-based monitoring - The Azure API Management Service Certificate belongs to the Category API Management Service - Certificate
- Share access to individual Certificates from within Nodinite using one or more role-based Monitor Views.
- The Application name is constructed as
/ConfigurationName/ResourceGroupName/API Management Service Name/. This naming scheme provides uniqueness, even if you deploy the same set of artifacts/services with the same name in different Monitored Azure Subscriptions.
State evaluation for Azure API Management Service Certificates
The configured Subscriptions with Azure API Management Services Certificates to monitor manifests within Nodinite as one or more Resources. For example, if you have two Services, you will have two Resources in Nodinite.
- The Nodinite Resources name is the name of the deployed Certificate.
Each item (presented in Nodinite as a Resource) evaluates with a state (i.e. OK, Warning, Error, Unavailable).
You can override the evaluation process by configuring the Expected State option available for all Nodinite Resources.
