New Relic

Use the integration to ingest alerts, search and retrieve data from New Relic.

Overview

New Relic is a cloud-based observability platform built to help you create more perfect software. It includes three core components: Full-Stack Observability, Applied Intelligence & Telemetry Data.

Full-Stack Observability lets you easily visualize, analyze, and troubleshoot your entire software stack in one connected experience. With rich analytics and a curated user experience, Full-Stack Observability surfaces the context your teams need to pinpoint and resolve problems within your infrastructure, applications, and end-user experience faster.

This integration is built for users who would like to interact with the data from New Relic's Full-Stack Observability component in their automation workflows.
