# Available Number of times the site was reported as available over the selected period.
# Bytes Number of bytes in the page object, for monitors with the fullpage monitoring.
# Check-in Errors Number of times the agent was unable to check the server over the selected period.

Above the Fold

“Above the fold” is the top portion of a web page that is visible in the browser window without having to scroll down. This metric measures the time it takes for the page content above the fold to stop changing and reach the final state. If the monitor has the Fullpage interval set, this time includes the load time of referenced resources like images, CSS, and others.

Above the fold
Note: Only DéjàClick monitors with UX monitoring enabled collect this metric.
Access Method HTTP method used to access the web page (GET, POST, HEAD, and so on).
Action Description Description of actions in a DéjàClick transaction.
Alert Type Type of alert sent: error, clear, traceroute to the recipient.
Attempt Possible values:

1 – There were no errors detected when accessing the web page.

2 – The monitor repeated the check to see if an error persisted.

Average Response Time Average response time for loading the URL over the selected period.
Connect Time Average time taken over the selected period to connect to the web server after the DNS lookup.
Content Download Average time over the selected period to download the contents of the base web page (layout). For transactions, the time is measured from the load of the first byte of the first page until the last byte of the last page in the transaction.
Cumulative Response Time Accumulated time as each step progresses in a DéjàClick transaction.
Date/Time Stamp Date and time when an alert was sent.
Device, or
Device Description
Monitor name.
DNS Number of Status 51 errors (“Unable to resolve IP address”) during the selected period.
DNS Time Average time taken over the selected period to perform a DNS lookup of the IP address.
DOM Load

The time from when a request is sent until the browser has downloaded the page’s HTML and finished constructing the Document Object Model (DOM). The timer stops when the DOMContentLoaded event is fired.

Note: The referenced images, CSS, scripts, and other resources may not have completed loading at this point.
Event Description Events in the DéjàClick action.
First Byte Average time to retrieve the first byte from the website after connection and any redirects over the selected period.
First Paint

The time until the browser starts rendering the page. At this moment, a user starts seeing the page content on the screen. The first paint time depends on the HTML markup, CSS, and JavaScript, but not the images.

Note: Only DéjàClick monitors with UX monitoring enabled collect this metric.
Fullpage Response Time Average time taken to retrieve the entire page and all referenced resources like images, CSS files, and JavaScript files.
Host Name The name of the DéjàClick transaction or server in the URL field of the monitor.
Hour of Day Time stamp for the measurement.
HTTP Status The HTTP status code from the web server in response to the HTTP request.
Individual Page Time Applicable to DéjàClick monitors, this is the range distribution of the full page response time of individual pages. Individual pages are not monitor steps, they are what appears in the Detail report as subitems of events that generate network activity, such as the navigate and link click events. Only pages with status 0 are counted. For details on how this is calculated, see Fullpage Time Distribution.
IP Address IP address of the accessed object for monitors with the fullpage monitoring.
Largest Fullpage Status The highest AlertSite Status Code detected at the time period.
Last Checked Time stamp of the latest test.
Last Error Last time an error was detected.
Last FP Date/Time Last time the monitor measured the full page response time.
Last Warning Last time a warning (unverified error) was detected.
Location Locations used by this monitor.
Location (Outage Report)

Locations where an outage was discovered.

Location Description Monitoring location that discovered the error and sent the alert to a recipient.
Max. Response Time Longest response time for loading the URL over the selected period.
Message HTTP status code.
