Centralized application programming interface monitoring tool
First Claim
1. A computer system for collecting and monitoring performance data for a plurality of application programming interfaces (APIs), comprising:
- a hardware memory device that stores program instructions; and
a processor that executes the program instructions and causes the computer system to;
obtain one or more various measurements of performance of the APIs on one or more computing devices operably connected to a network; and
assess a performance status for each of the APIs based on the obtained one or more various measurements of performance;
display the performance status for each of the APIs;
initiate a live API call to a running application on the one or more computing devices using parameters of a method of one of the APIs; and
receive data in an open standard format used by the API for transmitting data from a software application on the one or more computing devices,wherein the processor that executes the program instructions further causes the computer system to;
display at least a portion of a dashboard including the performance status for each API and the APIs,detect a first input on the dashboard that initiates a comparison of a keyword indicative of a particular API to all fields of JavaScript Object Notation (JSON) objects that have been used to define the APIs;
in response to detecting the first input, display methods of the particular API in a first additional window;
detect a second input at a location of a method on the first additional window;
in response to detecting the second input, display parameters of the method in a second additional window;
detect a third input at a location of a mechanism on the second additional window; and
in response to detecting the third input, initiate a live API call to a running application on one or more computing devices using the parameters of the method of the particular API.

Abstract
Methods and systems for the collecting and monitoring of information related to the performance of application programming interfaces (APIs) are provided. A method includes obtaining one or more various measurements of performance of the APIs, and assessing a performance status for each API based on the obtained one or more various measurements of performance. The method further includes displaying, the performance status for each API and the APIs, and searching for a particular API of the displayed APIs using a search technique configured to compare a keyword indicative of the particular API to all fields of JavaScript Object Notation (JSON) objects that have been used to define the APIs. The method further includes displaying the particular API including the performance status for the particular API, the one or more various measurements of performance for the particular API, and methods of the particular API, as a result of the searching.
