I'm trying to use the analytics feature of wso2.
https://apim.docs.wso2.com/en/latest/api-analytics/getting-started-guide/
I can set-up the analytics by generating on-prem keys as shown in the above guide. However, it seems like I need a choreo subscription to use it longer than 2 weeks. Is there a free way to use APIM analytics? Is MI analytics the only alternative? I'm currently not using MI.
As mentioned in [1], Choreo Analytics is only free upto 2 weeks and you can only have 3 on-prem keys during this period. However, as mentioned, you can extend the free subscription by contacting WSO2 sales and submitting a request.

We are using WSO2 APIM 4.1 version and we are looking to configure APIM Analytics, can we use old WSO2 APIM Analytics together with 4.1 version without Choreo which is not available as free.
AFAIK you can't use the old APIM Analytics with the latest APIM version, but instead of Choreo you can use ELK Stack to push your analytics data. Have a look at this. At the same time, you can also write your own event publisher to publish Analytics to any external system.
I have already read many documentations of WSO2, there are some products of WSO2 such as: Enterprise Integration (EI), API Management (APIM), Identity Access Management (IS), Analytics Stream Processing (SP). I can understand the functions of IS and SP.
1. But I dont know what are differences between EI and APIM?
2. When can we use EI? When can we use APIM?
3. Can we merge WSO2 EI and APIM and IS and SP Products to execute all of them on one server?
Sorry for many questions, but I am really confuse in these matters, please give me advice.
WSO2 EI can be used to integrate different systems, orchestrate and then expose as new services/APIs.
WSO2 APIM can be used to manage those services/APIs. You can manage security, rate limiting, CORS, etc. and can see analytics of API usage etc. too. For APIM analytics, there is a customized version of SP which you can download separately.
You can't run all 4 as a single server. Those are 4 runtimes, so you have to start them separately.
I would like to generate visualization(charts) on the usage of API accessed via WSO2 API Manager. I see many products and versions and cannot find right one. What is the difference between these products ?
API M Analytics 2.2
API DAS server 3.2
API Streaming processer 4.1
I'm using API manager 2.2 version and need real time analytics so which one is suitable for this purpose and the corresponding documentation to setup ?
Thanks in advance.
With APIM 2.2.0 you should use APIM Analytics 2.2.0. It's a DAS with some custom code specific to APIM.
For statistics, APIM out of the box supports batch analytics only. However, it supports alerts.
You can read this for analytics configurations.
We have wso2 api manager v1.10 and an early version of das. We have 9 environments to manage and our deployment team and testers are wanting reports to show who is subscribed to our APIs and what versions of the APIs are mapped to backend services.
I have checked the wso2 doco and various sites to see if das could produce these types of reports but with no luck.
Does anyone know of any reporting feature or facility that could provide dependency and version reports?
Unfortunately, there is no out of the box feature for report generation in APIM or DAS. But you can use DAS REST API or database tables [STATS_DB and APIM_DB] to retrieve data and use some 3rd party report gen tools such as jsreport to generate reports.
I would like to combine WSO2 AM and DAS with billing function.
I tried to set it by referring to the following site, but the article did not correspond to WSO2 APIM(2.0.0).
http://wso2.com/library/articles/2016/07/article-enabling-monetization-of-apis-with-wso2-api-manager/
http://www.rukspot.com/Publishing_APIM_1100_Runtime_Statistics_to_DAS.html
I want to publish WSO 2 APIM(2.0.0) runtime statistics to DAS.
But,WSO2 AM(2.0.0) does not have admin-dashboard like WSO2 AM(1.10.X).
・Should I lower the WSO2 AM version?
・Is there a procedure / article based on WSO 2 AM (2.0.0)?
・Do you have my point should be noted?
Thanks a lot.
From 2.0.0 onwards, it's called admin portal, and the URL is https://localhost:9443/admin. However, analytics configurations are removed from Admin Portal UI. So you have to use api-manager.xml file to configure analytics.
Refer this doc to configure analytics in 2.0.0.
Also, note that online service based on API Manager - WSO2 API Cloud - has API monetization and billing integration available out-of-box - just configure your billing plans and bank account and start collecting money: https://docs.wso2.com/display/APICloud/Enable+Monetization
There´s a guide on the same blog that you linked
http://www.rukspot.com/configure_wso2_das_for_apim_analytics.html
This is for configuring DAS. If you only care about analytics data for apim I would recommend the new wso2am-analytics instead of the DAS. It's made specially for the apim and much easier to configure. See the guide that Bhatiya provided on how to configure wso2am-analytics.
The article is for APIM 1.10.0 and DAS 3.0.x. If you want to try this with APIM 2.0.0 you need to used the sample billing engine in this repo. checkout the tag am-2.0 and check.
