New Relic integration

This integration ingests events from New Relic and maps them to Moogsoft Cloud events automatically.

This integration was validated with New Relic on February 14, 2022.

When to use the New Relic integration

Moogsoft offers two convenient mechanisms for integration with New Relic.

  • Use the Moogsoft New Relic integration :

    • To ingest events from New Relic and send them to Moogsoft with automatic mapping.

    • When you can configure your New Relic instance to authenticate against a Moogsoft endpoint to send data to Moogsoft. This integration does not require a Moogsoft Collector and you can use authentication.

  • Use the New Relic plugin with the Moogsoft Collector, when you:

    • Don’t want to make direct outbound calls from your environment.

    • Can install a Moogsoft Collector on a host in your environment and it will act as a proxy.

Create a new integration in Moogsoft

  1. Log in to your Moogsoft instance.

  2. Choose Integrations > Ingestion Services . Click on the entry for the New Relic push integration.

  3. Click Add New Integration.

  4. Define the Moogsoft Endpoint and API Description. Then click Save.

  5. The UI displays the integration in a new page with a Provisioned status. Click Save at the bottom of the page. The integration status will change to Active when it starts receiving data.

The new integration includes a custom endpoint, a set of default mappings to convert New Relic data to Moogsoft  events, and a deduplication key to group similar events into alerts. You can now set up New Relic to send data to this endpoint, as described in the following section.

(Optional) Once your endpoint starts receiving data from New Relic, you can customize how the integration maps and deduplicates this data. To learn more about mapping and deduplication, read Use mapping types in custom integrations and Deduplicate events to reduce noise.
