Monitor Spice Cloud apps from the Spice.ai portal

The Spice.ai Cloud portal includes a built-in monitoring dashboard — no external tools or configuration required.

Monitoring Dashboard

The Monitoring tab in your app provides real-time visibility into usage, request performance, and API activity:

• SQL Queries — total count, success/failure rate, and average duration

• AI Completions — LLM inference request metrics

• Vector Searches — embedding-based search request metrics

• Embedding Calculations — embedding generation metrics

• Dataset Refreshes — accelerated dataset refresh success and timing

Accessing the Dashboard

1. Navigate to your Spice app in the portal

2. Click the Monitoring tab in the app navigation sidebar

3. Select a time range: 1 hour, 24 hours, 7 days, or 28 days

Use the metrics dashboard to identify usage trends, detect spikes in query duration, and plan capacity.

API Request Logs

The request logs provide a detailed record of individual API requests, including status codes, durations, and timestamps.

1. Open the Monitoring tab for your app

2. Click Logs to switch from the Metrics view to the Logs view

3. Select a time range: past hour, 8 hours, 24 hours, or up to 3 days

Use request logs to debug failing queries, identify slow requests, and audit API usage.
