Viewing Key Metrics for Flex Gateway APIs

API Manager and Anypoint Monitoring collect metrics on active Flex Gateway API instances. You can view charts related to these metrics and filter the data by date.

The metrics available in API Manager are considered Key Metrics and are described here. Key Metrics are available with all Anypoint Platform subscriptions. For additional Flex Gateway API metrics not included in the Key Metrics section, use Anypoint Monitoring (Anypoint Integration Advanced package or Titanium subscriptions only). You can navigate to Anypoint Monitoring by clicking Anypoint Monitoring from Anypoint Platform.

The Mule API Analytics tab in API Manager is currently not available for Flex Gateway APIs. Use the Key Metrics or the additional metrics in Anypoint Monitoring.
