View data flow information about an Edge Processor
Each Edge Processor measures data flow metrics as it processes data. These metrics are sent to and read from the _metrics index of the Splunk Cloud Platform deployment that's connected to the Edge Processor tenant. You can access a detailed view of a specific Edge Processor to get an overview of how that Edge Processor is configured and how data is flowing through it. Use this detailed view to review the inbound and outbound data metrics of your Edge Processor and confirm whether data is flowing through as expected.
To access a detailed view of a specific Edge Processor, do the following:
- Navigate to the Edge Processors page.
- In the row that lists the Edge Processor that you want to inspect, select the Actions icon () and select Open.
The detailed view of an Edge Processor displays the following data flow information. By default, these are metrics from the last 30 minutes, but you can modify the time range. These metrics are not shown in real-time, so refresh the page to see the latest.
Historical metrics only include connected data sources and currently applied pipelines. If you delete a pipeline or configure a data source to no longer point to an Edge Processor, then metrics associated with them are not included in this view.
