== Overview
|
|
|
|
The Uptime overview is intended to help you quickly identify and diagnose outages and
|
|
other connectivity issues within your network or environment. There is a date range
|
|
selection that is global to the Uptime UI; you can use this selection to highlight
|
|
an absolute date range, or a relative one, similar to other areas of Kibana.

image::uptime/images/filter-bar.png[Filter bar]
|
|
|
|
The filter bar is designed to let you quickly view specific groups of monitors, or even
|
|
an individual monitor, if you have defined many.
|
|
|
|
This control allows you to use automated filter options, as well as input custom filter
|
|
text to select specific monitors by field, URL, ID, and other attributes.

=== Snapshot panel

image::uptime/images/snapshot-view.png[Snapshot view]
|
|
|
|
This panel is intended to quickly give you a sense of the overall
|
|
status of the environment you're monitoring, or a subset of those monitors.
|
|
Here, you can see the total number of detected monitors within the selected
|
|
Uptime date range. In addition to the total, the counts for the number of monitors
|
|
in an `up` or `down` state are displayed, based on the last check reported by Heartbeat
|
|
for each monitor.
|
|
|
|
Next to the counts, there is a histogram displaying the change over time throughout the
|
|
selected date range.

=== Monitor list

|
[role="screenshot"]
|
|
image::uptime/images/monitor-list.png[Monitor list]
|
|
|
|
The Monitor list displays information at the level of individual monitors.
|
|
The data shown here will flesh out your individual monitors, and provide a quick
|
|
way to navigate to a more in-depth visualization for interesting hosts or endpoints.
|
|
|
|
This table includes information like the most recent status, when the monitor was last checked, its
|
|
ID and URL, its IP address, and a dedicated sparkline showing its check status over time.

=== Creating and managing alerts
|
|
|
|
[role="screenshot"]
|
|
image::uptime/images/alert-flyout.png[Create alert flyout]
|
|
|
|
To receive alerts when a monitor goes down, use the alerting menu at the top of the
|
|
overview page. Use a query in the alert flyout to determine which monitors to check
|
|
with your alert. If you already have a query in the overview page search bar it will
|
|
be carried over into this box.

=== Observability integrations
|
|
|
|

|
image::uptime/images/observability_integrations.png[Observability integrations]
|
|
|
|
The Monitor list also contains a menu of possible integrations. If Uptime detects Kubernetes or
|
|
Docker related host information, it will provide links to open the Metrics app or Logs app pre-filtered
|
|
for this host. Additionally, this feature supplies links to simply filter the other views on the host's
|
|
IP address, to help you quickly determine if these other solutions contain data relevant to your current
|
|
interest.
