This AI agent queries and interprets observability data from New Relic using the full suite of New Relic MCP server tools.

Workflow

The agent investigates a New Relic alert or answers a direct question using New Relic observability data.

  1. Identify what to investigate.

    The agent uses a provided alert or assesses a conversational question.

  2. Generate an alert insights report or query the relevant data in New Relic using the appropriate MCP tools.

  3. Return the relevant information, such as entity health, service dependencies, log analysis, alert details and history, performance metrics, and change events.

For more information about configuring this AI agent, see Configure observability agents for ServiceNow Otto.
