metaDescription: " New Relic's Confluent cloud integration for Kafka: what data it reports, and how to enable it."
freshnessValidatedDate: never
---

New Relic offers an integration for collecting your [Confluent Cloud managed streaming for Apache Kafka](https://www.confluent.io/confluent-cloud/) data. This document explains how to activate this integration and describes the data that can be reported.

## Prerequisites

* A New Relic account
* An active Confluent Cloud account
* A Confluent Cloud API key and secret
* `MetricsViewer` access on the Confluent Cloud account

## Activate integration [#activate]

To enable this integration, go to <DNT>**Integrations & Agents**</DNT>, select <DNT>**Confluent Cloud -> API Polling**</DNT> and follow the instructions.

<Callout variant="important">
If you have IP Filtering set up, add the following IP addresses to your filter.
* `162.247.240.0/22`
* `152.38.128.0/19`

For more information about New Relic IP ranges for cloud integration, refer [this document](/docs/new-relic-solutions/get-started/networks/#webhooks).
For instructions to perform this task, refer [this document](https://docs.confluent.io/cloud/current/security/access-control/ip-filtering/manage-ip-filters.html).
</Callout>



## Configuration and polling [#polling]


Default polling information for the Confluent Cloud Kafka integration:

* New Relic polling interval: 5 minutes
* Confluent Cloud data interval: 1 minute

You can change the polling frequency only during the initial configuration.

## View and use data [#find-data]

To view your integration data, go to <DNT>**[one.newrelic.com > All capabilities](https://one.newrelic.com/all-capabilities) > Infrastructure > AWS**</DNT> and select an integration.

You can [query and explore your data](/docs/using-new-relic/data/understand-data/query-new-relic-data) using the following [event type](/docs/data-apis/understand-data/new-relic-data-types/#metrics-in-service-levels):

For more on how to use your data, see [Understand and use integration data](/docs/infrastructure/integrations/find-use-infrastructure-integration-data).

## Metric data [#metrics]

This integration records Amazon Managed Kafka data for cluster, partition, and topic entities.

title: 'Monitor your Kafka Metrics with API Polling for Confluent Cloud Integration'
summary: 'Seamlessly integrate your Kafka Confluent Cloud Metrics into New Relic. You can now monitor your Clusters and Topics with ease via API Polling'
releaseDate: '2024-12-03'

We're excited to announce that you can now monitor the health of your Confluent Cloud Kafka Clusters. This can be done through the new Confluent Cloud integration via API Polling.

Confluent Cloud lets developers to focus on building applications, microservices and data pipelines, rather than on managing the underlying infrastructure. With this integration, you can now monitor your clusters, topics, and brokers with ease.

New Relic lets you create dashboards using this data. In February, we will release a public preview of a new feature called Messages Queues and Streaming, which provides out-of-the-box reports. This feature facilitates a seamless flow from clusters to topics and allow for a deep dive into any APM service utilizing Confluent Cloud for Kafka. Until then, all data are available for use, and custom dashboards can be created and saved. For more information on creating custom dashboards, see the documentation here.
