Dashboard Overview

The dashboard overview is split into a number of key sections:

Home

The main homepage provides “Quick Links” to different sections of the RapidSpike app and popular pages, and your “Recently Viewed” – so you can quickly navigate to RapidSpike pages you use often. Here you will also see the RapidSpike blog feed so you can stay up to date. 

Issues

To view any current issue, click “Live Issues” to go to a live dashboard showing all current problems. Or go to “Recent Alerts” which shows any alert notifications RapidSpike has sent.

Wallboards

Wallboards are live updating views we have created to give you a clear picture of the current status of your core monitors. We have a number of wallboards to choose from – all of which have a “TV Mode” button in the top-right corner, which when pressed will display your data in full-screen. Ideal for use on wall-mounted TVs in the office.

Key wallboards include:

Performance

Shows your Page Performance and User Journey monitors. Each row is coloured to show what status the monitor had at a given time. See the key at the top to find out what each colour means. This wallboard also includes extra filtering options.

Uptime

Shows all uptime monitors – e.g. Ping, TCP, Web Page (HTTP) and API, grouped by websites and servers on your account. Can be viewed in “full” or “compact” modes.

Custom

The custom wallboard is a view you can configure yourself to display whatever monitors you wish. Just click “Configure” to choose from a variety of options.

You will also have access to Domain & SSL and User Journey wallboards via the dashboard.
