Configuring APIM Analytics

This section explains how to configure analytics for WSO2 API Manager. The API Manager integrates with the WSO2 Analytics platform to provide reports, statistics and graphs on the APIs deployed in WSO2 API Manager. You can then configure alerts to monitor these APIs and detect unusual activity, manage locations via geo location statistics and carry out detailed analysis of the logs.

By default, WSO2 API Manager has a port offset of 0 (no port offset) and WSO2 API Manager Analytics has an offset of 1. Therefore, this guide assumes that you do not have any other carbon servers running on the same machine with port offsets of 0 or 1.

Click on the Quick Setup tab to set up analytics for quick demos and try-out scenarios, or click on the Standard Setup tab to set up analytics for a production environment.

Some documentation links are pointed to WSO2 DAS documentation intentionally, since the API Manager Analytics server is built on top of WSO2 DAS.

Purging Analytics Data

You can remove historical data in API Manager Analytics by data purging. By purging data, you can achieve high performance in data analysis without removing analyzed summary data. When purging data, only the stream data generated by API Manager is purged. Refer Purging Analytics Data for more information.
