Interface Monitoring

One command to start watching. Every new message file picked up from a watched source is parsed and validated against your vendor profile, with metrics tracked per interface.

Creating Interfaces

pidgeon loft watch --directory /var/mirth/outbound/er --profile epic_er --file-pattern "*.hl7"

curl -X POST http://localhost:5100/api/loft/interfaces \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{
    "name": "ER Interface",
    "directoryPath": "/var/mirth/outbound/er",
    "profileName": "epic_er",
    "filePattern": "*.hl7"
  }'

Interface Metrics

Each interface tracks:

Messages total — Total messages processed
Success rate — Percentage passing validation
Error rate — Messages with validation failures
Throughput — Messages per minute/hour
Latency — Average and p99 processing time

curl "http://localhost:5100/api/loft/interfaces/{id}/metrics?sinceHours=24"
