# New Year, New User Experience!

We sprinted to the finish line in 2024 to deliver a major update to our user interface and workflow.

Happy New Year 2024 from the Qpoint team!

After spending most of 2024 establishing a solid foundation for the Qpoint platform with our new [eBPF agent](/content/resources/tap-into-your-egress-traffic-with-ebpf/index.html), we managed to sprint to the finish line and deliver a completely refreshed control plane experience. Our latest updates deliver a more intuitive interface so that ops teams can gain even deeper visibility to [resolve issues faster](/content/resources/the-hidden-risks-of-third-party-api-dependencies/index.html) and maximize third-party API performance and [internal platform reliability](/content/resources/improving-platform-reliability-with-qpoint/index.html).

Here’s a look at what’s new:

### [New Dashboard](/content/blog/new-year-new-user-experience/#new-dashboard/index.html)

We dropped a major update to our dashboard landing page which provides an improved overview of your third-party API ecosystem, with at-a-glance insights into key metrics and traffic trends to enable informed decisions and easy drill down after a quick review.

### [Sticky Filters](/content/blog/new-year-new-user-experience/#sticky-filters/index.html)

This update introduces stackable filters that remain active as you move through the interface, enabling a seamless workflow.

### [Updated Traffic Page](/content/blog/new-year-new-user-experience/#updated-traffic-page/index.html)

Our updated traffic page organizes critical data about your third-party integrations into intuitive sections for performance, availability, bandwidth, geolocations, connections, and HTTP requests - with real-time visualizations for easy monitoring, insights, and decision making.

#### [Performance](/content/blog/new-year-new-user-experience/#performance/index.html)

Analyze HTTP request connection rates, throughput, and response times to identify bottlenecks and maintain high-performing integrations.

#### [Availability](/content/blog/new-year-new-user-experience/#availability/index.html)

Track uptime and error rates for external services to proactively manage reliability issues.

#### [Bandwidth](/content/blog/new-year-new-user-experience/#bandwidth/index.html)

Monitor data flow volumes to understand how traffic usage impacts cloud costs across vendors.

#### [Geolocations](/content/blog/new-year-new-user-experience/#geolocations/index.html)

Gain insight into where requests originate or terminate geographically to ensure efficient routing and compliance with regional requirements and regulations.

#### [Connections](/content/blog/new-year-new-user-experience/#connections/index.html)

Visualize active connections between internal applications and external APIs to identify dependency patterns and ensure proper traffic flow.

**HTTP Requests**

Inspect detailed HTTP request data, including headers and response code - to troubleshoot errors and ensure consistent service quality.

### [New Inventory Page](/content/blog/new-year-new-user-experience/#new-inventory-page/index.html)

Our new Inventory section consolidates data from all third-party integrations, offering a unified view across vendors, clients (apps), endpoints, and API tokens. This section ensures teams can manage their dependencies efficiently while reducing blind spots and mitigating potential security risks.

#### [Vendor Inventory](/content/blog/new-year-new-user-experience/#vendor-inventory/index.html)

Get a complete catalog of your external vendors with detailed analytics to track usage, performance, and undocumented endpoints.

#### [Unknown Vendor Details](/content/blog/new-year-new-user-experience/#unknown-vendor-details/index.html)

Identify traffic originating from or targeting undocumented vendors, providing clarity into potential risks or unintentional dependencies.

#### [Client Inventory](/content/blog/new-year-new-user-experience/#client-inventory/index.html)

Map how internal applications interact with external vendors and APIs to ensure smooth and efficient operations.

#### [Endpoint Inventory](/content/blog/new-year-new-user-experience/#endpoint-inventory/index.html)

Catalog API endpoints to manage redundancies, improve traffic patterns, and streamline debugging.

#### [Endpoint Details](/content/blog/new-year-new-user-experience/#endpoint-details/index.html)

Drill down into individual API endpoints to view granular metrics for effective troubleshooting.

**API Token Inventory**

Maintain an inventory of active tokens to reduce risks from misconfigured or compromised credentials. Search by token hash to identify specific tokens.

#### [API Token Details](/content/blog/new-year-new-user-experience/#api-token-details/index.html)

Drill down to view key metrics like connections, bandwidth, and error rates for individual tokens for precise and efficient analysis.
