Best When

An agent needs to query or manage New Relic observability data, especially using NRQL for custom analytics across traces, metrics, and logs.

Avoid When

You're not on New Relic, or prefer a REST-only API without GraphQL.

Use Cases

  • Querying application performance data for automated analysis
  • Managing alert policies and notification channels programmatically
  • Creating synthetic monitors and uptime checks via agents
  • Retrieving NRQL query results for reporting and dashboards
  • Managing deployment markers and change tracking

Not For

  • Teams not using New Relic
  • Simple uptime monitoring (cheaper options available)
  • Teams needing open-source observability stack
  • Very small teams where cost is prohibitive
