Hosted app status dashboard - saas

I wish to provide a status dashboard to users of my SAAS internet application similar to the status dashboards provided by Google and Amazon.
Does anyone know of a ready-made 3rd party hosted service supporting such an interface?
Google example:
http://www.google.com/appsstatus#hl=en
Amazon Example:
http://status.aws.amazon.com

Stashboard is an open-source status dashboard hosted on Google App Engine. I created Stashboard this summer for Twilio's API status dashboard.

Geckoboard might be worth to use it.

Unable to run Echo Bot Google Messaging API. Doesn't reply to "card", "carousel", "chips" strings

I just started Google Messaging APIs 3-5 days ago and couldn't figure out what did I go wrong. I already sent/asked this issue to Google's Support page.
Project is under my generic google account. I created a Service Account under this project for info#ourdomain.com and added it as a Project > Editor role. Got this Json keys, uploaded them together with my python Echo Bot files.
Done registering my partner account as well (info#ourdomain.com) and got verified with the Project Number connected that's in my generic google account. I don't know if this is the right setup where my partner account and project ID are from different Google Accounts (info#ourdomain.com and generic#gmail.com, respectively).
Echo bot sample I used: https://github.com/google-business-communications/bm-python-echo-bot/tree/master/full_sample
Logs:
I'm very familiar with programming Google's services but was unaware of Business Messages until I saw your question (it's interesting, thanks).
There are a couple of references to "select the project that you registered for Business Messages".
Often Google enable non-GA|non-public APIs and other functionality (sometimes by injecting service accounts into the project's policy) by having users register Project IDs and Google accounts. I suspect that's what's happening here and the functionality is either blocked or not working entirely by your use of a different Project.
You may be able to gain more insight from the problem by checking logs. IIUC, an App Engine app is deploy and you should be able to gcloud app logs read --project=[[YOUR-PROJECT-ID]] (or gcloud app logs tail --project=[[YOUR-PROJECT-ID]])

Enabling AAD federated SSO for Google compute engine hosted app

I have a Webapp hosted on Google compute engine. I am trying to list it on Microsoft AppSource. One of the mandatory conditions for listing is enabling Azure Active Directory federated Single Sign-on (AAD federated SSO) for the app.
Google Cloud platform supports SAML 2.0-based SSO. Hence technically this should be possible. Has anybody tried it and any has experiences to share. Thanks in advance.
In order for an application to integrate with Azure Active Directory - it is not required that you have an Azure Subscription, or even Azure Active Directory (specially if your application is a multi-tenant application) - you can host your application anywhere.
For AppSource, as long as your app integrates with Azure Active Directory, then you are able to list your app on AppSource - which means that the application does not need to be hosted in Azure. AppSource also requires Open Id Connect - SAML would not qualify. For more details please see this article.
To make it easier to test the Azure AD integration in your application, you can create/ use a test tenant with a Microsoft personal account (MSA), as well as use this MSA account to register your application for OAUTH2 flow.
You probably don't want to use GCP's SSO. This is really designed to allow your developers to use your organization's auth system while working on GCP. This is different than allowing your users to use their organization's AD while working within your web app.
Instead, I suggest you look to see if anyone has built AD or SAML integration for the framework your webapp is built with, or look to implementing it yourself. This allows the SSO auth to be used for the app itself, instead of in accessing GCP APIs.

API metering and analytics using API connect on Bluemix

I provisioned API connect in Bluemix using various plans. None of the plans gives me the ability to add custom analytics, setting up developer portal and api metering.
The videos available on youtube shows the above functionality. Am I missing something or is it the case that these features are available for on-prem installation of API connect and not with API connect on Bluemix.
As long as you sign up for the Lite, Professional, or Enterprise level plans, you should have access to what you saw in the videos.
Analytics are viewable via the Catalog where your APIs are published. You'll see a tab specifically for this and you can customize the dashboards there.
The developer portal must be enabled via Catalog settings. Here's more information on how to accomplish that: https://www.ibm.com/support/knowledgecenter/en/SSFS6T/com.ibm.apic.devportal.doc/tapim_tutorial_using_ADP.html

Install or connect Google Home to a third party "Action"

I am developing an action using "Google Action". I have deployed the action as given in the deployment documentation.
Now I want other users to integrate or connect their Google Home device to this action. How can I do that?
See the section Confirm Your Deployment under the page you have linked to. Your Action will be reviewed and, once approved, will be Deployed and available for others to use.
Until it has been approved, you can only let others test it using the same scheme you are using to test it.
Pro Tip: You can deploy your action to the public by using https://01234567890.firebaseio.com/.json as your fulfillment endpoint.

Google Analytics Embed API with Server Side Authorization - Firebase Hosting

I completed the basic setup for Google Analytics and inserted the tracking code into my webpage(s). I can log in to analytics.google.com and see historical data just fine.
I have an admin page on my website where I want to display Google Analytics information to several users automatically (no additional logon req'd) and read that this is possible using the Embed API with Server-side Authorization.
I followed the instructions and created a Service Account that shows up under Service account keys in my Google API Manager portal. I also successfully ran 'sudo pip install --upgrade google-api-python-client' on my Cloud9 IDE and pushed the change to my hosting provider, Firebase, i.e. 'firebase deploy'. Lastly, I located and pasted my Analytics View ID in to the code sample provided with the Demo/Setup. My page is served with <!DOCTYPE html> declared.
I can't get it to work. Browser console says:
Uncaught TypeError: window.google.load is not a function
I am thinking that I am not invoking the get_access_token() in that Python module. In other words, I am thinking that server-side scripting is not supported with Firebase hosting.
Anyone know if and how to get Google Analytics Embed API with Server Side Authorization running with Firebase hosting?
This is not exactly a direct answer to your question, but rather an alternative solution to this problem. At least I’m using approach.
You can use Google Design Studio to build and embed amazing analytics and BI dashboards anywhere you like (also on your Admin website). But even easier would be to use Google’s authentication (via gmail) to provide access to select dashboards directly, as Google’s authentication and authorisation is likely more secure that your website’s.
