Real-time metrics

You can see a real-time view of the operations of your Diffusion™ Cloud service by going to the real-time metrics page.

Enabling real-time metrics

Real-time metrics are enabled by default for all Diffusion Cloud services.

Note:

When active, the real-time metrics page uses messages to provide information about your Diffusion Cloud service. These messages count as part of your data usage.

A single user viewing the real-time metrics page in its default layout for 24 hours incurs approximately $1 of message usage in that time. (This can be up to $5 if your average message size is large.)

You can disable or enable real-time metrics from the Settings page of your Diffusion Cloud Dashboard. Your Diffusion Cloud service restarts to disable or enable real-time metrics.

Viewing real-time metrics

Access the real-time metrics from the Usage page of your Diffusion Cloud Dashboard.
