Overview
APIIDA API Gateway Manager instantly creates an overview of the current status of managed Layer 7 API Gateways and services. The status of all instances and services is clearly summarized in a matrix view. A freely configurable dashboard can be individually tailored to create the desired view. The customizable Dashboard allows you to select the elements individually and according to your needs to create the desired display. Multiple Dashboards can be easily defined so that displays are appropriate for various users, whether management, operators, or API owners.

If you need more than one dashboard, you can click on the “New Dashboard” link in the left-hand pane. You can select a custom name for your newly created dashboard.
If you want the dashboard to be visible only to you, you can mark it as private.
