Appneta

Overview

AppNeta PathView is a network performance monitoring platform that provides visibility into network paths, application delivery, and user experience. The AppNeta app processes monitoring events from AppNeta including monitor point status, path quality, diagnostic tests, and network changes.

App Function

• Parse AppNeta PathView webhook events (JSON format)
• Extract monitor point status and alert conditions
• Assign network Event Class for all events
• Set alert severity based on event description patterns

Device Configuration

Configure AppNeta to send webhook events to the LogZilla HTTP receiver using the AppNeta API.

1. Create an AppNeta API access token with Organization Membership set to "Use dynamic membership"
2. Navigate to Explore API > observer > POST /v3/observer
3. Click Try it out and configure the JSON body (see example below)
4. Set the url field to https://LOGZILLA_IP/incoming/appneta
5. Set event types to true for the events to forward
6. Add an Authorization header with a valid LogZilla API token
7. Execute the API call to save the configuration

Example webhook configuration (JSON):

json
Wrap: OnCopyFullscreen
{
    "name": "LogZilla Events",
    "url": "https://LOGZILLA_IP/incoming/appneta",
    "testEvents": true,
    "seqEvents": true,
    "sqaEvents": true,
    "webAlertEvents": true,
    "networkChangeEvents": true,
    "headers": [
        {
            "name": "Authorization",
            "value": "token YOUR_LOGZILLA_API_TOKEN"
        }
    ]
}

Verification

Trigger a test event in AppNeta (e.g., disable a monitoring point), then verify events appear in LogZilla with program=AppNeta.

Incoming Log Format

AppNeta sends JSON webhook payloads via HTTP POST:

    "sequencerStatus": "UNAVAILABLE",
    "monitoringPointType": "macOS",
    "platformType": "Native"
}
