The Overview tab opens by default.\n\n## Required roles\n\nCMDB administrators can access the Overview tab within the API Insights workspace to monitor incoming API data, evaluate alignment with the data model, and take action on misaligned or incomplete data to verify consistent and accurate CMDB records. They can view and resolve errors in connections when importing API data into CMDB using Service Graph Connectors and adjust data based on clustering recommendations.\n\n**Note:** As a user with the sn\\_cmdb\\_admin role, you need additional roles such as ml\\_report\\_user and cmdb\\_inst\\_admin to access some of the features and data.\n\n## Features\n\nAccess the various cards on the Overview tab to gain insights on the API data available in your organization.\n\n**Note:** Select a segment or count on a chart to open the KPI Details page and analyze how a specific metric trends over time. To learn more about the KPI Details feature, see [KPI Details](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/ServiceNow/ServiceNowDocs/australia/markdown/now-intelligence/kpi-details.md).\n\n\n

\n\nAPIs by ownership group\n\n\n\nTotal count of APIs categorized by assigned ownership group. Groups APIs by managing team or function, as defined by an enterprise architect administrator with the sn\\_api\\_insights\\_ws.api\\_mgmt\\_architect\\_admin role in settings. For more information on setting an ownership group, see [Configure settings to manage APIs in API Insights](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/ServiceNow/ServiceNowDocs/australia/markdown/australia/servicenow-platform/api-insights/api-insights-config-settings.md).\n\n\n\nsn\\_cmdb\\_admin\n\n
\n\nAPIs missing data\n\n\n\nCount of APIs missing key attributes, including business context, ownership group, product model, or design. Each bar represents a key attribute and indicates the number of APIs missing the attribute.\n\nColor coding indicates the severity of missing data:\n\n- **Red**\n\nMore than 50% of APIs are missing the attribute.\n\n- **Yellow**\n\nBetween 10% and 50% of APIs are missing the attribute.\n\n- **Green**\n\nLess than 10% of APIs are missing the attribute.\n\n\nUse the visual indicator to prioritize remediation efforts based on data completeness. Select a bar in the bar chart to start the remediation process. See [Identifying and remediating missing API data in API Insights](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/ServiceNow/ServiceNowDocs/australia/markdown/australia/servicenow-platform/api-insights/api-insights-resolve-gaps.md).\n\n\n\nsn\\_cmdb\\_admin\n\n
