  • Manage ACLs (add, edit, delete)
  • View real-time statistics and performance metrics
  • View historical statistics and performance metrics
  • View all domains attached to the Fastly service
  • View current VCL version, and version history
  • View service activity, and recent events history

Using the Fastly CDN plugin Anchor to this heading

When accessing an Upsun environment page, go to the Fastly CDN tab.

Log in with your Fastly credentials:

  • Service ID

  • API token

    If you have a Fastly subscription, you can get your credentials directly from the Fastly interface.

    If you purchased your Fastly service through Upsun, you can find your credentials in the Upsun project variables or you can get them by opening a support ticket.

These credentials are stored only in your browser because the Fastly CDN web plugin is a single-page application.

After you log in, you can see a dashboard with the following information:

  • A real-time metrics tab
  • A historical metrics tab, where you can:

    • View metrics over weeks, months, and years by using the date picker.

    • Enable/disable chart metrics by clicking them. Disabled metrics are not shown on the graph.

    • View average, min, and max values for different metrics (when available, below the historical chart).

      Both the chart or the table presentation are based on the range you selected in the date picker.
