Telemetry

The N|Solid in the IDE Telemetry section shows live application information pulled from N|Solid Console. It gives you a quick view of which applications are currently reporting, how they are behaving, and whether any app-level metrics have crossed important thresholds.

What Telemetry Shows​

The telemetry view pulls application data from N|Solid Console and presents it as a connected-applications table. For each application, N|Solid in the IDE can show information such as:

  • Application Name
  • Connected Process Count
  • CPU Usage
  • Memory Usage (in MB)
  • Vulnerability Count (Vulns)
  • Event Loop Utilization (EL)

Telemetry Table

If your workspace is mapped to a specific app, that application is prioritized in the telemetry view so you can focus on the runtime information most relevant to the project you have open.

Alerts and Follow-Up Actions​

The telemetry section can also surface alert cards when critical thresholds are crossed. These alerts are designed to highlight situations such as:

  • CPU spikes
  • Heap or memory spikes
  • Event loop utilization spikes

When an alert appears, N|Solid in the IDE can offer an Ask AI action so you can move directly from the telemetry signal into investigation. This makes the telemetry view a starting point for deeper workflows rather than just a passive dashboard.

Connected Applications​

The main table in the telemetry section is centered on connected applications. If no applications are currently reporting metrics to N|Solid Console, the section shows an empty state instead of metric rows.

That usually means one of two things:

  • Your N|Solid credentials or connection are not configured correctly
  • Your Node.js applications are not currently reporting telemetry to the selected Console environment
