Fixed Issues

Issue ID

In built-in dashboards, URLs previously contained an extra https.

MONITORING-4881

When creating alerts, servers had metrics but deployed apps did not appear in the list of servers, so you could not create alerts on these servers.

MONITORING-4839

Sorting alerts using the Name column was not working properly.

MONITORING-4850

Users could previously intercept an alert, modify the alert ID, and send it to other users.

MONITORING-4756, INFOSEC-17438

When you used an email link from a basic alert to access a dashboard or alert from an organization that was different than the organization you were logged in to, you were redirected to your own organization’s alert page. You are now prompted to log in to an account that is associated with the organization that sent the alert.

MONITORING-4662

When creating alerts, you could circumvent validation in the Recipient field and paste invalid emails.

MONITORING-4614

When you configured a custom dashboard and tried to select an API instance, a 408 error occurred.

SE-21708

When you configured a custom dashboard while using an on-premises deployment, available servers and applications did not load.

SE-22074

June 16, 2021

Enhancements

  • Reports have a new column that specifies the target name, or location where the target is deployed, of the resource for which you are viewing a report.

  • The following charts were renamed:

    • Inbound - Total Requests by Endpoint is now Inbound - Total Requests by HTTP Endpoint.

    • Outbound - Total Requests by Endpoint is now Outbound - Total Requests by HTTP Endpoint.

  • Previously, in the Custom Dashboards API panel, APIs that did not support enhanced metrics did not appear. For enhanced usability, these APIs now appear in the API panel but are disabled.

  • The ${timestamp} variable is now available in alert email templates.

Fixed Issues

  • If you had previously chosen an environment when you accessed the Reports page, an error occurred when you tried to click View.

  • When you accessed the Custom Dashboards page and clicked Configure, the Save button appeared before you made any changes.

  • In Custom Dashboards, when you selected everything for an API Panel and changed to API Analytics Panel (deprecated), an error occured and your selections remained in each field. Because the metrics between API panels are different, your selections are now reset when you switch between API panel types.

  • Fixed an issue related to the group by for the Inbound - HTTP Endpoints chart.

  • Fixed an issue in which the Inbound - Total Requests by HTTP Endpoint and Outbound - Total Requests by HTTP Endpoint charts had empty cells. (SE-20663)

  • In the Built-in Dashboards page, when you viewed an API that supported both basic and enhanced metrics and then clicked the Switch to basic metrics link, the Switch to basic metrics link did not work. (SE-19796)

  • When you created a server alert, servers did not load automatically.

  • When you created an API panel in Custom Dashboards, if you selected everything, changed to advanced mode, and then switched back to simple mode, API selector tried to load indefinitely.

  • In Custom Dashboards, if you had two Runtime Fabric apps available that had the same name, there was an issue selecting the second one. (SE-20637)

  • When you used Safari to access built-in dashboards, the date picker did not work properly. (SE-20203)

  • When you used a link to Log Search that was shared by another user in the same organization, an error occurred if the query parameter in the URL was encoded: The sharer organization is not the same as the active one. You can now access log search after encoding query parameters in URLs. (SE-20282)

  • When you had multiple hybrid apps deployed to the same server, created a custom dashboard, and then selected the second app out of the hybrid apps deployed to that server as the Resource, your selection changed to the first app deployed to that server whenever you tried to reconfigure the panel. (SE-20453)

March 16, 2021

Enhancements

  • Fixed an issue related to deleting alerts while filters were enabled.

January 27, 2021

Enhancements

  • Basic and advanced alerts now include a selection for user-defined severity. Note that when you modify existing alerts, you must assign a severity to that alert before you can save changes.

  • You can now sort and filter alerts by severity in the Alerts page.

  • When you create an alert and begin entering a value in the Recipients field, user emails associated with your organization that match the value you entered appear.

Fixed Issues

  • When you had apps with the same name deployed to multiple Anypoint Runtime Fabric clusters:

    • Regardless of which instance of the app you selected, the same one always appeared.

    • The metrics associated with that app were combined.

    To accommodate this fix, built-in dashboard URLs have been enhanced to use the app’s ID to differentiate between instances of deployed apps. If you reload the page using the previous URL, the page will not load. (SE-19017)

  • The Inbound - Response Time by Flow chart erroneously displayed the same value for average, minimum, and maximum columns. (SE-19048)

  • The Raw Data page did not load for some Runtime Fabric users. (SE-18626, SE-19093)

  • In built-in API analytics charts, the following charts erroneously showed sums, instead of averages:

    • Average Response Time

    • Requests by Performance

  • When using Anypoint Monitoring, the Sign Out button did not log you out of Anypoint Platform.

  • When you clicked a link in an alert email, some redirects did not work as expected. The link in the alert email now directs you to an error page if that link goes to:

    • A deleted dashboard

    • A dashboard that cannot be found

    • A dashboard that is in a different organization than the current active organization.

October 26, 2020

Enhancement

The resource and version selectors in the Built-in Dashboards, Custom Dashboards, Alerts, and Log Points pages contain information about the target and deployment type, if available.

Fixed Issues

  • If you had two APIs with the same name but different targets, you could not differentiate which API was related to which cluster. The API names appeared without additional information. SE-15782.

  • When you searched for an API instance or version, the search feature did not suggest results based on the version.

  • When selecting assets to view in built-in dashboards, the supported runtime versions tooltip erroneously stated Version 3.8.7-AM is supported for log search only. All -AM runtime versions are deprecated.

  • In Built-in Dashboards, the Inbound - Maximum Response Time chart used the wrong query to populate the chart.

September 17, 2020
