Monitoring Google Cloud Platform with Statuspage

Question

I want to integrate my Google Cloud Platform to Statuspage by Atlassian. I've been thinking, how can I monitor my instance without an API setup in my application. I want to create a script for checking the server connection and setup API in the script maybe.

Any suggestions?

Thanks.

Searching around, it seems that indeed, it's not possible to integrate GCP with Atlassian StatusPage.

I believe that the best option for you would be to use the Stackdriver Monitoring. As per the Google official documentation Introduction to the Stackdriver Monitoring API:

The Monitoring API v3 gives you access to over 1,000 Stackdriver Monitoring metrics from Google Cloud and Amazon Web Services. You can create your own custom metrics and can organize your cloud resources using groups.

I would recommend you to take a look at it, as it seems to be the best option for you to monitor your instance's health.

Let me know if the information helped you!
