RabbitMQ API poller template

Use this SAM API poller template to monitor statistics from the RabbitMQ Management HTTP API.

After creating an API poller based on this template, remove any metrics that don't apply to a specific ServiceNow instance. Otherwise, the overall status of the API poller displayed in the SolarWinds Platform Web Console will be Down or Unknown because expected metrics are not found.

Prerequisites

Assign this template to an external node that points to a RabbitMQ API instance.

Set the ${IP_ADDRESS} parameter in the URL.

Configure OAuth2.0 or Basic Auth credentials.

Notes

Default thresholds are not set for this template.

Here is a request example: http://${IP_ADDRESS}:15672/api/overview
