Monitoring Technology Dashboard for HTTP
With the HTTP Monitoring Technology Dashboard you can monitor the response time of your http and https URLs. By using the dashboard, you can identify the URLs with the highest metric readouts in your system's infrastructure, and view the most recent active alerts on those URLs.
Overview of the dashboard
The HTTP Monitoring Technology Dashboard shows the five URLs with the highest metric readouts during the past six hours. The dashboard also shows the 50 most recent active alerts on those URLs.
To view the dashboard, navigate to and select HTTP.

Use the Time range filter to filter the time range for which you want metric data to display on the dashboard.
You can customize the appearance of the individual widgets on the HTTP Monitoring Technology Dashboard. For example, you could change the data parameters that display for the Response Time metric, like the time range that the response time is displayed. You can also include the customized widgets when you’re creating a custom dashboard. For more information, see Customize the Monitoring Technology Dashboard.
