Suggested December 2023 Workflow Monitor In Informatica: Task & Gantt Chart View Examples
In our previous tutorial, we discussed on workflow — which is nothing but a group of commands or instructions to the integration service. It defines how to run task like command task, session task, e-mail task, etc. To track everything is streamlined and executed in the desired order, we need a Workflow Monitor.
What is Workflow Monitor?Workflow monitor is a tool with the help of which you can monitor the execution of workflows and task assigned to the workflow.
In workflow monitor you can,
See the details of execution
See the history of the workflow execution
Stop, abort or restart workflows, and tasks
Display the workflows those who are executed at least one time
In this Tutorial – you will learn
Workflow monitor consists of following windows –
Navigator window- shows the monitored repositories, folders & integration service
Output window – displays the messages from integration services and repository
Properties window – displays the details/properties about tasks and workflows
Time window – displays the progress of the running tasks & workflows with timing details.
Now, let see what we can do in Workflow Monitor
How to open Workflow Monitor
Step 2 – This will open workflow monitor window
In the workflow monitor tool, you will see the repositories and associated integration services on the left side. Under the status column, you will see whether you are connected or disconnected to integration service. If you are in the disconnected mode, you won’t see any running workflows. There is a time bar which helps us to determine how long it took a task to execute.
Step 3 – The workflow monitor is in a disconnected mode by default. To connect to integration service.
Select connect option
After connecting, the monitor will show the status as connected.
Views in Workflow Monitor
There are two types of views available in Informatica workflow monitor
Task view
Gantt View
Task ViewTask view displays the workflow runs in report format, and it is organized by workflow runs. It provides a convenient approach to compare workflow runs and filter details of workflow runs.
Task view shows the following details
Workflow run list – Shows the list of workflow runs. It contains folder, workflow, worklet, and task names. It displays workflow runs in chronological order with the most recent run at the top. It displays folders and Integration Services alphabetically.
Status message – Message from the Integration Service regarding the status of the task or workflow.
Node – Node of the Integration Service executed the task.
Start time – The time at which task or workflow started.
Completion time – The time at which task or workflow completed the execution.
Status – Shows status of the task or workflow, whether the workflow started, succeeded, failed or aborted.
Gantt Chart ViewIn Gantt chart view, you can view chronological view of the workflow runs. Gantt chart displays the following information.
Task name – Name of the task in the workflow
Duration – The time taken to execute the task
Status – The most recent status of the task or workflow
To switch between Gantt chart and task views
Example- How to monitor and view detailsIn previous examples, we have created a
Mapping “m_emp_emp_target”: A mapping is a set of instructions on how to modify the data and processing of transformations that affects the record set.
Session “s_ m_emp_emp_target” : A session is a higher level object to a mapping which specifies the properties of execution. For example performance tuning options, connection details of sources/targets, etc.
Workflow “wkf_s_m_emp_emp_target”: A workflow is a container for the session and other objects, and it defines the timing of the execution of tasks and the dependency or flow of execution.
Now, we will analyze the details of execution in this topic.
Step 1 – Restart the workflow designer, as described in previous topic
Step 2 – Go to workflow monitor and in the monitor window you will see details as shown in screen shot like repository, workflow run details, node details, workflow run start time, workflow run completion time and status.
Step 3 – Here you can view the currently running workflow, which is having status as “running”.
Step 4 – Once the workflow execution completes, it status would change to succeeded/failed along with start and end time details.
Step 5 – To view the task details
In the pop-up window select “get run properties”
A properties window would appear with the task details
Here we chose “Task Details” to view. It will display all the details like Instance Name, Task Type, Start Time, Integration Service Name, etc.
Task details –
Source and Target Statistics
Source and target statistics gives the details of source and target. For example, how many rows are fetched from the source and how many rows are populated in the target the current throughput, etc
In the following screen, 14 records are fetched from the source, and all 14 are populated in the target table.
Applied rows signify how many records Informatica had tried to update or insert the target
Affected rows signify how many numbers of applied rows were actually chúng tôi all 14 rows are successfully loaded in the target, so the count is same for both.
Rejected rows signify how many rows are dropped due to target constraint or other issues.
In this tutorial, you have learned how to open and monitor the workflows and tasks using workflow monitor.

Mappings In Informatica: Create, Components, Parameter, Variable
What is a Mapping?
Mapping is a collection of source and target objects linked together by a set of transformations. These transformations consist of a set of rules, which define the data flow and how the data is loaded into the targets.
A mapping consists of following set of objects
Source Definition – Source definition defines the structure and characteristic of the source, its underlying data types, type of the data source, etc.
Transformation – Transformation objects define how the source data is transformed, and various functions can be applied during the process.
Target Definition – Target definition defines the final target where the data will be loaded.
Links – Links connect the source definition to different transformations and target tables. It defines how the data flows from source to target and the transformations.
In this Tutorial- you will learn
Why do you need Mapping?Mapping is an object in Informatica with the help of which you can define how the source data is modified before it reaches the destination or target object. Like if you have employee name as “Bill Clinton” in your source system and in the target system the requirement is to have employee name in the format as “Clinton Bill”, such operations can be designed at the mapping level. In basic terms, what you do with the source data is defined at the mapping level.
Mapping is the basic Informatica object with the help of which we can define the data transformation details and source/target object characteristics. Mappings help us to define the data transformation at the individual column levels for each row. Even in a single mapping you can handle multiple sources and targets.
Components of MappingBasic components of a mapping are
Source tables
Mapping parameters and variables
Target objects
Mapping transformations
There are various objects that constitute a mapping. A mapping can consist of sources, targets, mapping parameter and variables, mapplets, various transformations, and user-defined functions.
Mapping Source: Mapping sources are the objects from where you fetch the source data. It can be a database table, flat file, XML source or COBOL file source
Mapping target: Mapping target is our destination objects where final processed data gets loaded. Mapping target can be a relational table of a database, a flat file or XML file. Sources and targets are mandatory in any mapping, their type can differ
Mapping Parameters and Variables: Mapping parameters and variables helps you to create temporary variable objects which will help you to define and store temporary values while mapping data processing. Mapping parameters and variables are optional users defined data types, which can be created for a mapping and can be referenced and updated for a specific requirement. We will learn more about mapping parameters and variables in this section
Mapplets: They are objects which consist of a set of transformation, source or targets. Mapplets are generally created to reuse the existing functionality of a set of transformations. It can be used in any no of mappings.
What is Stage Mapping?A stage mapping is a mapping in where we create the replica of the source table. For Example, in a production system if you have an “employee” table then you can create an identical table “employee_stage” in ETL schema.
In Stage Mappings,
Source and Target tables have identical structures
The data in the target table is a replica of source table data or
Data in stage (target) table is a subset of source data.
For example, if your source table contains employee details of deptno 10, 20, 30, and 40. The staging table can be a table having employee records of deptno 10 & 30 only.
The purpose of creating stage tables in Data warehouse is to make the process of data transformation efficient by fetching only those data which is relevant to us and also to minimize the dependency of ETL/Data Warehouse from the real-time operational system.
How to Create a MappingIn this exercise, we will create a stage mapping, in which source will be “emp table” and the target will be “emptgt”.
Naming Convention – mapping names are prefixed with ‘m_’ followed by source and target table names separated by underscore sign.
Example – if you are loading emp_target table from the emp table, then mapping name can be ‘m_emp_emp_target’.
Step 1 – Launching Mapping Designer
Open Informatica Designer Tool
Step 2 – In Mapping Designer
Select Create Option
Step 3 – Enter Mapping name as ‘m_emp_emp_target’ and select OK Button.
Mapping will be created and listed under mappings folder.
A Mapping must have at least a source and a target, you will add sources and targets to the mapping.
Step 4 – In this step we will,
Select “emp” source table under sources folder.
Drag and drop “emp” table into mapping designer.
In mapping designer, imported source table will be shown.
Note – When you import any relational (database) table in a mapping, an additional object of source qualifier type will also be created. This source qualifier transformation is necessary and helps Informatica integration service to identify the source database table and its properties. Whenever you import a source table, source qualifier transformation will also be created. You should never delete a source qualifier object in a mapping.
Step 5 – In this step we will,
Select “emp_target” source table under Targets folder.
Drag and drop “emp_target” table into mapping designer
In mapping designer, “target table” will be imported and shown.
To manage the view space, you can iconize these objects in the mapping.
After selecting the option “Arrange all Iconic”, the workspace will look like this.
Step 7 – In Informatica, We design with the flow from left to right. So, source tables should be at the left side, and target tables should be at right. To arrange tables in our workspace, Select the “emp_target” table then drag and drop it to the right side of the emp table.
After this rearrangement, the workspace will look like this.
Note – Periodically use “ctrl+s” shortcut to save changes to the repository.
Step 8 – Now you have source and target tables in your mapping, but the mapping is not yet complete. The source and target tables should be linked to complete a mapping.
To Link source and targets
Step 10 – To link source with target table
Select Source table columns.
Drag and drop columns to the target table.
The Source and the Target tables will be linked, and connecting arrows will appear from source to the target table.
Step 11 – Use shortcut “ctrl+s” to save changes to your mapping. On the output window, you can see the message of mapping validation/parsing. It confirms that your mapping is valid. Also, there will be a temporary green tick mark next to the mapping name in mapping folder tree indicating mapping is done successfully.
In mappings there can be a requirement, where we need to pass variable to the mapping or there can be a scenario where we need to calculate temporary variables and further required to store them for the next session run of the mapping. For these purposes, we create mapping parameters and variables.
Mapping Parameters and VariablesLike every programming language, Informatica has its own way of defining parameters and variables. But unlike other programming languages, Informatica isn’t a code based language. To create parameters and variables in Informatica, you have to follow the predefined syntax and navigation.
Difference between parameters and variables –
Mapping Parameters Mapping Variables
Mapping parameters are those data types whose value once assigned remains constant throughout the mapping run. Like if you have created a mapping parameter deptno=20, then the value 20 will be constant for the whole mapping run. The parameter wherever it will be referenced will always return value 20 for that instance of mapping run. For a new mapping instance, the parameter value can be redefined. Mapping variables are objects which can be referenced throughout the mapping run (to access their values) and their values can be reassigned. For example, a mapping variable of total_salary can be used in a mapping, and its value can be updated based on salaries.
The mapping parameters and variables are specific to a mapping only. They cannot be referenced in another mapping.
How to Create Mapping ParameterWhen you create a mapping parameter, during execution of mapping Integration service looks for its assigned value. This values can be assigned to following places.
Inside parameter file
In pre-session variable assignment
Initial value in repository
Default value assigned during variable creation
Step 1 – To Create mapping parameter – In mapping designer,
Select mappings menu
Select parameters and variables menu
Step 2– In next screen,
From drop down, select type as parameter
Enter parameter name as $$Deptno
Enter an initial value of 10
Select OK button
Now, you have created a mapping parameter deptno, with initially assigned value of 10, and this parameter can be referenced inside the mapping.
How to Create Mapping VariableStep 1 – In mapping designer
Select mappings menu
Select parameters and variables menu
Step 2– On the next screen
From drop down, select type as variable
Enter variable name as $$TotalSalary
Select DataType as decimal
Enter an initial value of 0
Select OK button
This will create a mapping variable.
Note – mapping parameter and variable names always begin with $$.
SummaryMappings are important in Informatica to match source data with target as per project requirements. We have discussed stage mappings and concept of Mapping Variables and Parameters.
Approval Workflow Setup And Testing In Power Automate
In this tutorial, we’ll learn how to set up an in Power Automate. There are times when flows can’t be fully automated and might require some user intervention.
Approvals are very useful because we can automate some part of the flow, and split the part that needs user intervention into its own separate flow.
For example, there could be a flow for an expense request. It will be processed through regular channels. However, someone still needs to look at it just to make sure that the amount makes sense. If it’s over a thousand dollars, the request should undergo approval before the flow continues.
Then there’s a condition where if the item includes an issue or problem, it creates a Trello card. Otherwise, it retweets the tweet.
However, we might not want to retweet it until an actual human being approves it. Hence, we’ll put an approval right before it gets to the retweet step. The automated flow will actually pause when it gets to that point, and will continue once the user approves it.
Let’s now create an approval workflow. First, we need to add an action.
There are three different actions for this connector. You can either create an approval, wait for an approval, or combine those two things together (Start and wait for an approval). We’ll choose the second option because we want to both start and wait for an approval to go through.
There are four available approval options for this action. Let’s choose the First to respond option.
I’m going to copy and paste the email address that I used for this organization. Make sure you use valid emails.
We can also assign multiple people. We can have 20 reviewers and only one of them needs to actually approve them.
Let’s also add space.
After that, type in “Name: ”. Again, make sure to add a comma right after that.
We want the retweet to actually happen after the approval. So, we need to switch the order of the two actions. Move the Retweet action below the “Start and wait for an approval” action.
The condition is if the outcome is equal to “Approve”.
If the condition is true, then it should be retweeted. Therefore, let’s move the Retweet action inside the “If yes” path.
If it’s not approved, we want a record for that. So, let’s add an action within the “If no” path.
Then choose “Create a card”.
Choose Tasks for the Board Id field and Issues for the Parent List Id.
For the Card name field, type “Tweet has been rejected”.
As for the Description field, choose “Tweet text” within the Dynamic content tab.
Let’s open Twitter and tweet “Power Automate is AMAZEBALLS!”.
Again, this usually takes a few moments because it’s constantly querying Twitter. After the flow runs successfully, go to Approvals.
We’ll then see that there’s a new approval request.
Let’s now analyze how our flow worked. The process has gone through the condition.
The tweet doesn’t have the word “Issue”. That’s why a Trello card wasn’t created yet. Instead, it waited for an approval.
As we can see, it contains all the arguments that we required such as the tweet text and the name of the person who tweeted it.
Because of that, let’s approve the tweet.
Let’s now go back to our flow. As we can see, the condition was true. Therefore, the action (Retweet) within the “If yes” path was executed.
Once we check our Twitter, we’ll see that the tweet was already retweeted.
And that’s how you can manage approvals in Power Automate mobile app.
We’ve successfully created an approval workflow in Power Automate. Keep in mind that flows don’t need to be fully automated, and you don’t have to worry about being uncertain of what might happen in your flows. You can just include user intervention into your flows and make them more customized and logical.
If you’re a consultant and you’re going to deploy Power Automate into a company, a lot of these approval processes and tools are built-in for you. This makes the user experience in Power Automate so much better, especially when users can do everything from both their desktop and phone.
All the best,
Henry
How To Create And Configurewith Workflow
Introduction to Gulp.js
Gulp is used to run different tasks with the help of chúng tôi as a platform. Gulp depends on the JavaScript code, provides the platform to run the front-end tasks, and helps us run large-scale web applications. Commonly gulp is used to build the automated system to perform different tasks such as CSS and HTML. It also provides the provision for concatenating additional library files and compiling SASS files. In this operation, we need to act on the command line using Shell or Bash scripts.

Web development, programming languages, Software testing & others
What is Gulp.js?Gulp is an order line task sprinter for chúng tôi Gulp lets us computerize cycles and run redundant errands efficiently. Gulp is not the same as other assignment sprinters because it utilizes Node streams, channeling yield starting with one undertaking as information and then onto the next. It has to peruse a record once, process it through numerous errands, and compose the result document. These outcomes result in quicker constructs since there is a compelling reason to make and peruse middle-person documents on the hard drive.
Utilizes SASS and LESS as CSS preprocessors.
Consequently, it invigorates the page in the wake of altering the source records.
Straightforward and fabricate the chúng tôi because it utilizes unadulterated JavaScript code to construct the assignment.
Using Gulp.jsUsing gulp helps us automate the two different tasks; here, we try to remove the white space from the HTML file and modify the JavaScript files. Here we need to use gulp to copy the resultant files into the built folder.
Let’s consider our application placed under the folder C:GulpDemo. There is no need to use the global installation of gulp; instead of global, we can install a local version.
For execution, we need to reach the application and open the command line prompt; after that, configure our application using npm package manager because we install gulp using npm, so use the npm init command and hit enter to create a JSON file. Here we get some question lists relevant to the application, and finally, we created a package, a JSON file, under the root folder. This newly created file stores all the dependencies.
The created JSON file we can see below is as follows.
Code:
{ "stud_name":"Jenny", "Class":"First", "RollNo":"10", "scripts":{ "exam":"echo"Error Message: no exam specified " && exit 2" }, }Explanation:
The chúng tôi for npm is like a package.config utilized by Nuget to store the application conditions.
By having a neighborhood establishment of Gulp, when the application is most recent from adaptation control, it will design the application with every one of its conditions locally instead of utilizing a worldwide establishment.
We need to add an HTML task; gulp provides the plugin to remove the white space from the HTML file, so use the following command.
Code:
npm install gulp-htmlclean --save-devExplanation:
Inside the root folder, we will get an unlearned HTML file; now, we need to create a gulp runner to clean the HTML file and transfer it into the destination folder under the root folder.
After executing the above command, we get the following screen.
Output:
We usually know that gulp writes all tasks in a JavaScript file called chúng tôi so first, create that file and write the following code.
Code:
var gulpfile = require('gulp'), htmlcleanfile = require('gulp-htmlclean'); var f = { src: 'src/', build: 'build/' }; gulp.task('html', function() { var o = folders.build + 'html/'; return gulp.src(folder.src + 'html/**/*') .pipe(htmlclean()) .pipe(gulp.dest(o)); });
In the above code, we use different methods, such as gulp.task, chúng tôi gulp.dest, and gulp.watch.
Gulp.task: It is used to create a newjobk per our requirement.
Gulp.src: It is used to read files from a specified source folder.
Gulp.dest: it is used to write the file after the operation.
Another strategy called readable.pipe() really chains the above swallow techniques to play out an assignment. Swallow works with Streams, for example, the gulp.src() technique peruses records as stream from the source and passes it to a swallow module through the pipe() strategy for doing an assignment. This way, the line() technique peruses the stream from the gulp.src(), executes the module assignment and passes it to the objective stream through gulp.dest() to compose it to the objective.
Creating Server Gulp.jsNow let’s see if we can create server chúng tôi as follows.
Server creation helps us reload live tasks on the browser; after that, we can integrate all required tasks. So first, we need to install the Browsersync module on the machine using the following command.
Code:
$npm install –save-dev browser-sync After that, we need to write a function as below. gulp.task('webserver', function(){ connect.server({ livereload:true}); });In the second step, we can set up an automatic compilation of fewer files to the CSS style sheet and move them into the browser. We may need to change the hostname and port in the next step. Gulp provides the connect plugin, and it has many configuration options. As per our requirement, we can modify the hostname and server port.
Code:
connect.server({ port:80, host: ‘gulp.dev’ }) ; Configure and Workflow Gulp.jsAfter installing gulp and chúng tôi we need to create a starter using the express-generator.
Code:
$ npx express-generator -v ejs –sample-project $ cd sample-project $ npm installNow create a GitHub repository for our project, as shown in the below screenshot.
Copy the repository URL and make the initial push using the following command.
Code:
$git init $git remote add origin specified url $git add –A $git commit –m “commit” $git push origin master gulp js Project StructureNow let’s see the project structure as follows.
The following screenshot shows the project structure of chúng tôi follows.
Using the above structure, we can create an automated workflow such as compiling CSS files from the source, creating HTML pages, checking application code, etc.
ConclusionWith the help of the above article, we saw about chúng tôi From this article, we saw basic things about Gulp js and the integration of chúng tôi and how we use it in Gulp.js.

Difference Between Time Management And Task Management
If there is something that everyone in the world was given in equal measure then it must be time. Yes, even oxygen is not equally distributed. People who reside at top of mountains have less oxygen. It might appear like some people have more time in the world than others. Well, this is probably because they have mastered the skill of time management better than others. Before going any farther into this article it is worth pointing out that there is a world of difference between time management and task management. They might sound the same but they are quite different.
The thing that people have is not a difference in amount of time it is the number of tasks that they have to conduct. For instance many working parents have to grapple with dropping their children off at school and picking them up. There is the part where they have to prepare them for school while at the same time trying to organize their day’s tasks over the phone. It is a really busy life for a majority of people. This is where the problem lies.
What Should You Be Managing?Sure you were taught when you were in grade school that it is important to manage your time. There is time for everything and a season for every task under the sun. That is true but then once you are in the corporate world, things do not work in such a black and white manner anymore. You do not plan when your clients are going to load you up with an innumerable lot of tasks to complete within a short period of time. When you are working for your client you should also remember that you have a life outside the office and it must be catered to as well.
Therefore, you should start managing your tasks and stop trying to manage time. No man or woman for that matter has control over time. It will continue moving even when you are seemingly doing something important.
The Time ConceptTime is one concept that is just too hard to define in its entirety. Human beings might not be entirely sure what time is but they are experts when it comes to measuring it. The fact that you can measure time makes all the difference. It is so easy to check your BlackBerry calendar and add tasks to it. Try checking a to-do list and assign dates and times to the tasks on that list. You will realize just how difficult it is. This is probably because when you try to do that, you run out of time for all your tasks.
It is a common assumption that the more tasks people complete in the limited time they have the more productive they are. This is just assumption and not a true one for that matter. When people focus a lot on scheduling their time too much they end up being overwhelmed. However, if you schedule your tasks then you should not have a problem getting them done without being stressed. Burn out is real and you do not want to experience it. Luckily technology has made it possible for people to organize their tasks better.
Keep the Tasks RollingA task is a piece of work that has been assigned to an individual to complete within a given period of time. The thing that many people try to do is to keep the tasks moving at a pace equal to time. Well it might work once or twice, but not always. Time moves regardless of whether you are there or not but then tasks need your attention to keep them rolling. Managing a task is thus easier to handle than trying to manage time.
When you decide to manage time then you will end up handling one thing at a time rather than grabbing something that is too big that even rocket scientists are unable to explain. This does not mean that you should not try to understand how tasks fit into your time. You should do that however stop placing too much importance on that. Allocate a task – what you believe you can handle within a given period of time and get it done. How will you do this?
Identify What Is Important and What Is NotThere are tasks that are most important to your business’s performance. These are the ones that should take priority when you are allocating time to them. You know your abilities and how fast you can get the work done excellently.
Learn to Say “No”Picture this scenario: you are working on a project then your supervisor tells you that there is something that they would like you to do for them urgently. Of course you will be tempted to say yes and take up a task that did not get an allocation. If it is important then you can take up the task but then if it is not just say no to it.
Identify Time-WastersIn as much as you are not paying too much attention to time management, you should learn what wastes your time. It could people like a certain colleague who always has the latest gossip and the social media pop-ups that just will not stop.
Slot in Some Personal TimeTo manage tasks properly you will need to be relaxed and focused. This means that you should take some time and breathe. Slot in time to read those social media posts, chat with your colleague and if you can afford to take a 20 minutes power nap during lunch break then you should do it.
How To Monitor Mobile & Wi
How To Monitor Mobile & Wi-fi Data Usage in Android Smartphone View & Control Your Data Usage With Check Data Usage
Why Do We Run Out of Data So Early?
Just as the above example of managing the time properly to finish up the work, using data also has the same concept. The issue isn’t with the data but in the way you manage it (be it mobile data or Wi-Fi data). Exactly like your working schedule, if you keep proper track of the data usage, you won’t have to worry about a thing here.
We all know how difficult it is when the internet speed goes down drastically & you just wish for the day to get over. Because accessing the Google Search homepage to look for high-quality pictures, everything starts working slower than before. Eventually, the whole world around you starts working slowly, because nowadays, the internet is our whole world. Data management is the one & only solution one can opt for to make things work smoothly.
What Do You Mean By Data Management?
Mobile or Wi-Fi data usage management would require tools that can help you manage the tracking 24*7. Because obviously, it’s not something that one can do manually so you’d require additional help to do so.
To find the solution for every problem a user encounters, Developers and service providers work very hard. This time also, in order to track the data usage, many service providers came up with apps that can help you monitor the usage. Some have been amazingly helpful and others haven’t, however, the concept worked splendidly. Same way, we took our own sweet time to research the best data usage apps and went through every possible glance. Finally, we narrowed down our research to one data usage app that’s powerfully amazing & accurate when it comes to tracking data usage. The ultimate tool that can help you get the data usage statistics accurately whenever asked is, Check Data Usage by Systweak.
Install Check Data Usage App Here
Yeah!! You read it right. Check Data Usage by Systweak that doesn’t let you perform any manual work apart from setting it up for the first time. Everything else will be done by the Check Data Usage app which is just the best tool for what we are seeking right now.
Monitor WiFi & Mobile Data Usage With Check Data UsageWhen it comes to downloading & accessing any third party tool on your device, you need to be extra careful. Especially, the tools or apps that need access or permission to read through sections such as Messages, WhatsApp, Media, & whatnot. So while narrowing down Check Data Usage from Systweak for you, the top priority was the Security aspect. If the data usage app you just downloaded is capable of securing your device contents, you can go ahead with giving permission to read through the device.
Check Data Usage has specifically been designed to monitor the data usage on your Android smartphone. The ultimate data WiFi & mobile data monitoring app lets you easily keep track of data usage & set limits as well. Yeah!! With Check Data Usage, you can set the limit on data usage so whenever you come near the edge or about to exceed it, you will get an app alert. Amazing, isn’t it!! There are many features like this that make Check Data Usage one of the most powerful apps to view & monitor your data usage.
What Can We Do With The Check Data Usage App?We all know how expensive those data recharge plans are, irrespective of any part of the world you are living in. So if there is a way where you can save money on mobile data plans, I strongly believe you should go for it. For example, if you are using the Check Data Usage app, it will constantly keep reminding you about the mobile or WiFi data tracking.
This way, you will know how much data plan you are left with & accordingly you can start spending it, hopefully wisely. Additionally, since the Check Data Usage app lets you set plans for yourself as well, it’s a unique way to keep track of the plan set for you, by yourself.
Following the above method of setting up a plan for yourself would help you anticipate the data usage for future references as well. So let’s get to know how to set up the Check Data Usage app and get the most out of it to monitor mobile & WiFi data usage.

E. After allowing the Check Data Usage app all the permissions, the next display you will experience will be the home screen of the app.
F. The above screenshot in the home screen has been divided into four different categories or headers (Mobile/Wifi/Plan/Speed).
Please note: Since our whole concern is to monitor the mobile & WiFi data usage on your Android smartphone, it will be done from the above home screen only. As you can see in the screenshot, the home screen is also playing the role of Mobile header as well.
From the consumed data for the day to the accurate segregation of the apps that are eating up the mobile data, everything can be seen there. Now here comes the plan where you can put a cap on the mobile data usage and monitor the same. Yeah!! If you think your mobile data usage is exceeding way too much, you need to set up a plan to limit the data accordingly.
Start the process by tapping onto the Set Data Plan and the Check Data Usage app will lead you to the Plan tab automatically.
Once you have jumped onto the Plan tab, here you need to tap on Set Data Plan functionality (extreme bottom of the screen).
Post tapping on Set Data Plan, fill in the details that have been asked by the Check Data Usage tool.
As you can see in the above screenshot, the plan has been set up for Mobile data usage only. Also, from the Plan validity (days) you need to fill in the Data Limit as well for those specific days. Last but not least, put in the date as well from when you wish to start this plan for your mobile data usage tracking.
After filling in all the asked details, tap onto the Set Data Plan and your plan would be set up accordingly. Please know that the date you have selected for the plan to start, it will start the mobile data usage tracking automatically.
This is how you will be able to set up a predefined mobile data plan for you (days or months). Doing so will help you monitor the mobile data usage as to which app is consuming the most amount of data & should you start accessing it less. Plus, in the case or whenever your plan exceeds the defined mobile data limit, the Check Data Usage app will start giving you alerts about the same. This way, you will know that your setup plan for those many days has expired so you need to set up the data plan again now.
The above way will help you monitor, track, & set up plans for mobile data usage. Using this method will help you not to spend more money on mobile data plans, considering you don’t exceed the mobile data. And not to forget, go with the data management concept to keep things under your control.
Monitor Wifi Data Usage With The Check Data Usage AppWiFi data usage is something that you opted for after going through so many data plans. It was a thorough decision that had been designed for you on a monthly or quarterly basis. So setting up a new plan under wifi data usage doesn’t make sense. Having said that, monitoring the data usage is something that one should always track, irrespective of the data sources. For example, when it comes to wifi data usage, the Check Data Usage app helps you track everything from the minimal to the maximum consumed data app/software.
All you need to do is, go to the Check Data Usage app home screen & tap onto the WiFi tab (second header from the left).
As the above screenshot shows you the data that’s been consumed through WiFi for the particular day. Just below the large-font-size numbers (consumed data), you can see the apps segregation as well. The distribution below shows you how much data has been consumed by which app. This will help you make better decisions if you think that most of your wifi data is being consumed on unnecessary apps.
Also, specifically designed to monitor your wifi data usage on Android smartphones, the Check Data Usage app is extremely useful. After going through every app, you can see which app (through wifi) is consuming the maximum data and this is how you monitor the wifi data usage.
Wrapping UpMonitoring data usage means tracking & making decisions (if needed) to keep the data usage according to your preferences. Obviously, it shouldn’t happen that all the data gets eaten by those data-hungry apps so you need to keep track of them 24*7 as well as set up data plans. Data usage tracking can help you big time while trying to identify where all the data has been consumed. So without further delay, start using the Check Data Usage and start monitoring your wifi and mobile data usage.
