Hey,
I am in need of some accurate cpu, mem and other stats about the server. before I start developing my own solution I was wondering if the planned ‘server monitoring tools’ will be added to the api. if so, that would save me a lot of time + provide the most accurate stats!
Thanks in advance, Sam

Hello,
Just a quick update here. DigitalOcean now has a Monitoring API endpoint that you could use. For more information you can take a look at the official API documentation here:
https://docs.digitalocean.com/reference/api/api-reference/#tag/Monitoring
Also, keep in mind that you need to have the DigitalOcean Metrics Agent installed on your Droplet in order to get some data back.
You can install the do-agent
as per the instructions here:
https://docs.digitalocean.com/products/monitoring/how-to/install-agent/
Hope that this helps. Best, Bobby
We’re working hard on server statistics and hopefully will have it available soon.
That does not really answer my question though, I was wondering if those services would be added to the API. Thanks for letting me know that the stats will be available soon though!
