# AIC-manager ## Overview AIC-manager (AICM) provides APIs that retrieve metrics from AIC devices which various management tools or external frameworks can use to create dashboards for administration. The objectives of AICM are to: - Collect telemetry: Gather telemetry data from AIC cards and serve it in a user-friendly manner. - Monitor health: Monitor card health and perform a series of diagnostic tests to provide reports. - Enforce policies/configurations: Apply configurations to AIC cards based on different conditions. The AICM files are in the following location: /opt/qti-aic/tools/aic-manager Copy to clipboard You can access the API documentation using the following methods: - Swagger UI: [Swagger UI](https://swagger.io/tools/swagger-ui/) enables users to visualize and interact with the APIs. When operational, AICM provides a Swagger UI interface accessible at `:/docs`. - Redoc: You can achieve the same using [Redoc](https://github.com/Redocly/redoc). When operational, AICM provides a Redoc interface accessible at `:/redoc`. For both of the previous methods, replace `:` with the actual IP address and port number where AICM is running. ## Next steps - Install the dependencies and [start AICM](https://docs.qualcomm.com/doc/80-99100-3/topic/index_user-guide.html). - [Feature overview](https://docs.qualcomm.com/doc/80-99100-3/topic/index_feature-overview.html) - Use the [AICMI command line interface](https://docs.qualcomm.com/doc/80-99100-3/topic/index_cli.html) to interact with AICM through a terminal without having to use a programmatic interface. - See [examples](https://docs.qualcomm.com/doc/80-99100-3/topic/aic-manager-how-to.html) of using open source software to create dashboards and graphs.
