Viewing the system summary

When you sign in to Admin Console, you see the Dashboard page, which provides a summary view of your system. Admin Console also contains a set of tabbed pages for you to navigate as you administer FileMaker Cloud: Databases, Backups, Configuration, Connectors, Subscription, and Logs.

The Dashboard shows information about:

  • Host name, FileMaker Cloud version, and server ID

  • In-use connections to FileMaker Cloud

    These can be FileMaker Pro, FileMaker Go, or FileMaker WebDirect connections.

  • Open and total hosted databases

  • The annual limit for data that can be sent from hosted databases to clients using the FileMaker Data API and OData

    The limit is set by your purchase agreement.

  • FileMaker Data API usage

  • OData usage

  • Total FileMaker Data Storage, the amount of data used, and the amount of data remaining

    FileMaker Data Storage is a service that provides cloud-hosted storage for databases, externally stored container field data, and backup files.

  • CPU and memory usage, and network throughput

    This data updates every 20 seconds.

The upper right of the Dashboard page shows the time in Coordinated Universal Time (UTC).

Next to the UTC time, the Notifications drop-down list shows important events for you to respond to, such as warnings on system usage, or notifications about upgrading to a new version of FileMaker Cloud.
