BigPanda self-service REST API

Monitoring

Most monitoring tools can use the BigPanda Alerts REST API to send events at detection and resolution. BigPanda processes incoming events using our alert-correlation logic. Based on the results, the system creates a new incident or updates an existing one.

• The Enrichments API allows you to add context, define custom tags, and build on correlation pattern and maintenance plan functionality.
• Use the Maintenance Plans API to suppress events corresponding to maintenance windows.

Change

The BigPanda Root Cause Changes REST API connects your change records to BigPanda. Use it to push change feed updates for ingestion by BigPanda, where all the original change system’s fields and active states are converted into BigPanda Change objects. The resulting data is displayed in the Related Changes table for each incident. 

Topology

The BigPanda Real-Time Topology Mesh capability renders a visual representation of the relationships between an incident’s alert tags. Using the BigPanda Topology UI API, you can structure the visual appearance of the topology between alert tag nodes, charting data that to aid in investigating root cause and assessing potential impact.
