Exploring the My Account Dashboard
This section explains the elements on the dashboard in My Account.
To open the My Account Dashboard page, sign in to My Account. The Dashboard page is in focus. You can also click Dashboard at any time to display the page.
Use the My Account Dashboard page to check the overall health of your active services. You can view service status, outages, and availability percentage.
Note:
If you’ve subscribed to service entitlements, no details (top metrics or availability percentage) are displayed on the dashboard. See Viewing Service Details in My Account for Entitlements.
The following table describes the key information shown on the My Account Dashboard page.

The Current Status section uses color to indicate the daily status of each service for the past 7 days. At a glance, you can see whether a service was up, down, or not yet active. For cells that indicate planned outages or service incidents, date and time in the hover text is displayed according to the time zone preferences you had set during login. If you didn’t set a time zone preference, then the date and time is displayed according to the data center’s time zone. Date labels below the service status chart, however, are displayed according to the data center’s time zone. Before Activation (white with diagonal lines) Service Up (green) Planned Outage (gold) Service Incident (red) Clicking the Current Status link takes you to the Overview tile of the service details page. Note: If there are multiple service incidents in a day, the cell color corresponds to the most severe incident of the day. For example, if a service was down (color coded red) and under maintenance (planned outage, color coded gold) on a single day, the cell color displays red. See Monitoring Historical Status and Availability Percentage. |
|
For services other than Oracle Public Cloud services, the top two metrics over the last 7 days are displayed. Clicking the name of a specific metric takes you to the Business Metrics tile of the service details page with the graph displaying the details of the selected metric. See Monitoring Utilization and Business Metrics. |
|
The Availability icon displays the percentage of time that a service was up during the past 14 days. To view the availability percentage for a single day, hover the cursor over that day on the calendar. Clicking the Availability link takes you to the Overview tile of the service details page. See Monitoring Historical Status and Availability Percentage. |

Show: All Services |
Use the options on the Show menu to display all your services or only those services that satisfy the criteria you select from the menu. Select:
To filter by entitlements, select the required service from one of the above categories. For example, to show Documents, which is a service entitlement, select the service from the Platform Services category in the Show filter. You can also search for predefined service types in the search box provided in the Show menu by typing a few characters of the service name. The system suggests possible matches and the list is refined to display only those. |
Scope: All Identity Domains |
Use the options in the Scope menu to filter services by identity domain. By default, the dashboard displays services across all domains. You can select a specific identity domain or search for it by entering a few characters of the identity domain name in the search box provided. The system suggests possible matches and the list is refined to display only those. You can then select the identity domain that is required from the list. |
Use this icon to mark a particular service as a favorite. Marking a service as a favorite adds the service to the list of favorite services. After you’ve marked at least one service as a favorite, the favorites (star) icon appears next to the Show filter. If you select multiple services as favorites, then the service that you added most recently to the list is displayed first. You can mark up to a maximum of 8 services as favorites. If you have already selected 8 favorite services, and you try to add another service as a favorite, then a pop-up window appears prompting you to deselect one of the existing favorites before you can add this new service to the list of favorites. Favorites are persistent only within the application in which they are selected. Therefore, favorites that you select in My Account aren't automatically listed as favorites in Infrastructure Classic Console or Applications Console, and vice versa. If a service that’s marked as a favorite becomes inaccessible (for example, if a signed-in user is no longer a service administrator for a service that the administrator has marked as a favorite), then the service won’t appear on the Dashboard page when you view the list of favorite services. However, if you’ve already selected four favorite services and you attempt to add a fifth service that’s inaccessible, then the pop-up window to replace an existing favorite will display After you’ve marked services as favorites, you can quickly view the list of your favorite services by either clicking the star icon next to the Show filter, or selecting Favorites from the Show filter. The icon color turns from gray to blue after you click it. Click this icon again to remove a service from the list of favorite services. |
