Now that we’ve familiarized ourselves with the basics, let’s get on creating our first dashboard! I spot an familiar tile here, the WebAPI tile. This tile is available in the SquaredUp SCOM and Azure products too. WebAPI tile is the way you bring external data into SquaredUp. As long as the tool you’re connecting to has an API endpoint that returns data in JSON payload, you can work with that data to display the data in a dashboard in SquaredUp.
It’s incredibly helpful to be able to visualize the data produced by your organization’s M365 tenant so you can manage licenses, usage, capacity, and more. SquaredUp dashboards are ideal for this. You can use the WebAPI Tile in SquaredUp to connect to the Microsoft Graph API, which offers a broad set of functionalities for working with Azure via code. Microsoft 365 sits on top of Azure and can be managed via Graph API, too.
SquaredUp Dashboard Server lets you and your team create beautiful dashboards, for any tool or data, that you can share with everyone in your organization. Here’s a quick introduction to the product where we show you exactly what you can achieve, in no time at all. Let’s start with the three tabs on the top left of the screen: Getting Started, Next Steps, and Sample Dashboards. We’ll run through them one by one.
Hey everyone! It’s been a while since we've gone on a learning journey together, after the Azure Monitor Learning Path. I’m thankful for the love that series received, and since then, I've been looking for another opportunity to take on something new and share my learning experience with you all. Finally, the time has come!
We recently launched the public preview of a new tool that lets anyone dashboard anything – for free. Meet Dashboard Server! You can download it free because we wanted to get our incredible dashboards in the hands of more people. The SCOM community know us well but our dashboards are perfect for so many use cases beyond System Center monitoring. And if you love them as much as we think you will, all we ask in return is that you share that love by spreading the word.
Regardless of the SquaredUp product you use, the WebAPI tile is very useful when it comes to connecting to external data sources and showing them in your dashboards. It brings you closer to that single pane of glass dashboarding dream that we all have, which is why it is also one of our most used tiles!
Below is the full list of results for the Big SCOM Survey. We surveyed 118 SCOM users with 27 questions. For the key highlights and expert analysis of these results head over here.
What’s the future of SCOM? How do others set up their SCOM landscape? What tools are SCOM Managers using to help streamline processes? The answers are all here. The Big SCOM Survey 2021 is the first of what we hope to be an annual survey where we measure the pulse of the SCOM community, get insights and share best practices. This year, we asked 27 questions and had 118 respondents – and we’d like to share our findings with you.
How would your IT team be transformed if you could dashboard anything, for free? If you’re an IT pro and want an enterprise dashboarding tool that’s quick to implement, easy to set up, and effortless to maintain, you need SquaredUp Dashboard Server! The public preview of SquaredUp Dashboard Server just went live! Dashboard Server functions independently of SCOM and Azure and introduces a new PowerShell tile to take dashboarding a big step further. Now you can dashboard virtually any data.
A couple months ago, we hosted a week of community-led SCOM workshops and networking. These hands-on workshops took a deep dive into a series of topics handpicked by the SCOM community itself – and we are thrilled that the community found it valuable, as we learned from our post-event survey.
