Getting the UI URL

After you provision an instance of the IBM Cloud Activity Tracker service in the IBM Cloud, you can view, monitor, and manage events through the IBM Cloud Activity Tracker web UI. You can launch the UI from the IBM Cloud UI or directly from a browser.

As of 28 March 2024 the IBM Log Analysis and IBM Cloud Activity Tracker services are deprecated and will no longer be supported as of 30 March 2025. Customers will need to migrate to IBM Cloud Logs, which replaces these two services, prior to 30 March 2025.

You can also get the web UI URL by undocking the dashboard.

To get the UI URL, complete the following steps from a terminal:

1. [Pre-requisite] Installation of the IBM Cloud CLI. Learn more.

2. Log in to the location in the IBM Cloud where the instance is provisioned. Run the following command: ibmcloud login

3. Set the resource group where the instance is available. Run the following command: ibmcloud target

   By default, the default resource group is set.

4. Get the dashboard URL. Run the following command:

   ic resource service-instance INSTANCE_NAME --output JSON | grep dashboard_url
   

Where INSTANCE_NAME is the name of the instance.

To get the name of the instances that are available in a resource group, you can run ibmcloud resource service-instances.
