The detailed instructions for setting up and configuring all integrations, including the Runscope integration are on the Setup tab of the integration.
- Log in to your Operations for Applications instance.
- Click Integrations on the toolbar, search for and click the Runscope tile.
- Click the Setup tab and you will see the most recent and up-to-date instructions.
Runscope Integration
Runscope is a cloud-based API monitoring service that monitors performance and availability of API’s. Runscope detects API transaction failures and exceptions and triggers alerts based on flexible criteria. You can use Runscope with your applications without having to write any code.
This integration uses a Python script and the Telegraf Exec plugin to get the data from Runscope. You install and configure Telegraf to send Runscope test results into Operations for Applications. Telegraf is a light-weight server process capable of collecting, processing, aggregating, and sending metrics to a Wavefront proxy.
In addition to setting up the metrics flow, this integration also installs a dashboard. Here’s a preview of some charts in the Runscope dashboard.
