By Yanina Avila

In this guide, we'll learn how to check your customer statistics in Grafana. We will cover how to access the Grafana dashboard, authenticate with Okta, and locate your customer using the List of Customers and the 6.0 support dashboard. You will also learn how to find and use the customer GUID, review recent activity, and adjust the data range to see different time periods.

Let's get started

How to check your customer stats in Grafana. To do this, open a browser and go to grafana.prod.proofpointarchiving.net.

You should authenticate with Okta.

1
Type "grafana.prod.proofpointarchiving.net + Enter"

Once you arrive here, most of the work will be done in the 6.0 support dashboard, the customer list, and possibly MIPs. If you are unsure whether your client is using version 6.0, check the customer list. In the UI, under Dashboards, click List of Customers. Check each data center.

2
Click on "List of customers"
Step #2: Click on "List of customers"

Most of our clients are in us-east-1.

Scroll until you find your customer. For example, my name is Elliot. Elliot Management appears here. We know they are 6.0.

3
Check for customer example: "elliottmgmt"
Step #3: Check for customer example: "elliottmgmt"

Next, return to your list of dashboards. Open the 6.0 support dashboard.

4
Click on "6.0 Support Dashboard"
Step #4: Click on "6.0 Support Dashboard"

The 6.0 support dashboard does not search for clients by name, but by GUID. If you don't know your client's GUID, you can check a Jira ticket.

The UI will show you first your last viewed item. Check Jira for new GUID if you dont have it
Step #5: The UI will show you first your last viewed item. Check Jira for new GUID if you dont have it

You can search by customer name or space GUID. I'll use this as an example. Here, you can see PrimAmerica is my customer name, followed by a space and the GUID.

6
Example: "primerica guid *"
Step #6: Example: "primerica guid *"

I found a ticket and you capture the customer GUID.

I can select this GUID, copy it, then go to the 6.0 dashboard and paste it into the customer field.

7
Right-click on "Customer GUID : 1_b8b17fb5cd99cc_14ca613a_197a8dd971f__8000"
Step #7: Right-click on "Customer GUID : 1_b8b17fb5cd99cc_14ca613a_197a8dd971f__8000"
8
Return to Dashboard, Fill in the customer field with the customer GUID, then press Enter.
Step #8: Return to Dashboard, Fill in the customer field with the customer GUID, then press Enter.

Fill in the customer field with the customer GUID, then press Enter.

The UI will always display the last user or customer you viewed. We are searching for data from the last 30 days. In the past 30 days, we received 828,000 messages. We archived 822.
