fwiw, we log both the session id and the address of the web api for that session in a database (also datetime, user login name, etc).  Also log the datetime when they log OUT so we have an idea how many users are in the system at any one time.

That allows you to check things faster/more easily for a specific session since you don't have to look for it over several webapi servers.  

You may still need to check all of them if you are looking in aggregate. 

This logging approach provides the server addresses of all in use webapi servers - allowing you to use tools that automatically spin up (scale) the webapi servers.  this way you can check each server without knowing (hard coding) webapi server addresses.

We are using PowerServer 2022 R3 ( Cloud Pro).

Now I understand that I have to create my own tool to monitor PowerServer sessions in PS 2022 R3 (Cloud Pro).

Thanks for the clarification.

Hi.

That help you've seen doesn't refer to the new PowerServer (Cloud Apps), but to PowerServer Web - Mobile which was offered until PowerBuilder 2019.

Which one are you using? Are your applications developed in PowerBuilder 2019 R3 or earlier?

PS: Always mention the version of Powerbuilder you are using when creating a new question. That way you may receive more accurate answers faster.

Thank you, Francisco!

After looking into the documentation below, I thought Appeon was providing a PowerServer Monitoring tool

Hi Jeyakumar,

There are some APIs that allow you to monitor and manage a PS Application sessions, but they work on an instance-level. So you would have to access them for each one of your containers and there's currently no way to do so in an aggregate manner.
However, having access to the API for each container a solution can be developed that aggregates the sessions from all the containers into a single place.

Here's the documentation for the PS Management APIs: https://docs.appeon.com/ps2022r3/Use_PowerServer_Management_APIs.html
