nr1-apdex-optimizer provides actionable recommendations for Apdex threshold settings. These recommendations are based on existing best practices and provide links to the relevant page where you can make the suggested changes.
This Nerdpack lists APM and Browser applications for an account in a table. For each application, you can see the currently configured Apdex thresholds along with links to the application settings page where you can change the Apdex threshold (ApdexT). The table also lists suggested APM and Browser Apdex thresholds, which are updated based on the time picker period.
For great advice on choosing the right Apdex threshold, see Bill Kayser's New Relic blog post.
The application relies upon a combination of native NerdGraph and NRQL-based queries. It consists of two top-level React components, the first to identify and list available accounts, and the second to render the table. The table is based on a third-party open source React library, called react-table. It can be sorted on every column, provides pagination, and allows relevant cells to be filtered based on a search term. We have added throughput and errors so you can use those values for prioritization.

cd nr1-apdex-optimizer
nr1 nerdpack:serveVisit https://one.newrelic.com/?nerdpacks=local, navigate to the Nerdpack, and ✨ https://one.eu.newrelic.com/?nerdpacks=local if your account is in the EU region data center.
Open a command prompt in the Nerdpack's directory and run the following commands.
# If you need to create a new uuid for the account to which you're deploying this Nerdpack, use the following
# nr1 nerdpack:uuid -g [--profile=your_profile_name]
# to see a list of APIkeys / profiles available in your development environment, run nr1 credentials:list
nr1 nerdpack:publish [--profile=your_profile_name]
nr1 nerdpack:deploy [-c [DEV|BETA|STABLE]] [--profile=your_profile_name]
nr1 nerdpack:subscribe [-c [DEV|BETA|STABLE]] [--profile=your_profile_name]Visit https://one.newrelic.com, navigate to the Nerdpack and get started. https://one.eu.newrelic.com if your account is in the EU region data center.
- If you have an app that has been running for awhile in a steady state and you have a good baseline for acceptable performance, set your Apdex threshold to give you a baseline Apdex score of 0.95. To do this, get the 90th percentile value and set that to Apdex T and set the time picker to 7 days. For information information, see Changing your Apdex settings.
- When deploying to a master account, select each sub-account from a drop-down menu. If deployed to a single sub-account, the account is automatically selected.
