Get VWRs Metrics

Macrometa PhotonIQ Virtual Waiting Rooms (VWRs) has built-in metrics that allow you to retrieve waiting room telemetry per waiting room, per minute. Data is stored for the past 90 days.

Using VWRs metrics, you can:

• Evaluate peak traffic flow through your waiting room and onto your site.
• Determine how long users spent in the waiting room.
• Use analytics to help calibrate your waiting room settings.

Get Metrics

You can retrieve metrics using the following endpoints:

• Get Metrics for a Waiting Room - Retrieve the metrics for a specific waiting room. Set start and end times to get metrics for a specific time period. To get the waiting room key, use the Get Information for All Waiting Rooms endpoint.
• Get All Metrics - Retrieve metrics for all waiting rooms. Set start and end times to get metrics for a specific time period.

Available Metrics

The metrics response body includes the following properties:

• avg_waiting_time: The average time users spend in the virtual waiting room before being granted access to the origin service (in milliseconds).
• waitingroom_key: The waiting room key.
• duplicate_request_rate: The percentage of duplicate requests detected and managed by the virtual waiting room service.
• origin_key: The origin key.
• peak_queue_length: The highest number of users in the queue during a specific period.
• queue_abandonment_rate: The percentage of users who leave the virtual waiting room without accessing the origin service.
• request_success_rate: The percentage of requests to the origin service that are successfully processed after users leave the virtual waiting room.
• timestamp: The epoch time of the start interval when the metric was generated (in seconds).
