Dear Atlas community, [apologies for duplicates] we determine the roadmap for RIPE Atlas together: based on RIPE NCC internal plans and ideas, and on your wishes and suggestions & needs. After publishing the incremental updates to the roadmap in the RIPE Labas articles and presentations, we now have a permanent location for the RIPE Atlas roadmap: http://roadmap.ripe.net/ripe-atlas/ It is part of the listing of a few RIPE NCC services and their plans. We publish the features in 4 categories: * recently delivered * in progress * planned & * requests We will keep updating this page, every time when one of the features move from "in progress" to "delivered", and so on. Next steps are * to add more details about all of those listed features, * to take on your comments, feedback, suggestions, and prioritize those that are only "requested", so that we can understand what exactly the feature means, and to move it to the "planned" category. * do consider automating the expression & collection of feedback More information: RIPE Labs article: https://labs.ripe.net/Members/mirjam/introducing-ripe-ncc-roadmap Please do let us know what you think of this!

(fwd) REST API for creating measurements & One-Off / fast-track measurements
by Vesna Manojlovic 05 Apr '13

Dear RIPE Atlas Anchors hosts, dear sponsors, we have released two new features for beta-testers, but since you guys are also power-users, you might be interested too. If you want to be added to testers list, please subscribe here: https://www.ripe.net/mailman/listinfo/atlas-testers (and then we still have to manually add you to VIP list, so you will only be able to do use these features from Monday on..) Once you are "enabled", you will see a new icon (see attached picture). Please let us know if you like these new features! Regards, Vesna -------- Original Message -------- Subject: [atlas-testers] REST API for creating measurements Date: Wed, 20 Mar 2013 09:47:28 +0100 From: Vesna Manojlovic <BECHA(a)ripe.net> To: atlas-testers(a)ripe.net Dear RIPE Atlas beta testers, We are pleased to announce a feature that many users have been asking for: an API for creating measurements! From now on, you can create measurements without being logged in to the web interface. This includes the one-off measurements that we announced two weeks ago. Here is the (hidden) link to the documentation: https://atlas.ripe.net/alpha/measurement-api/ Limitations: * This service is still in beta status, so although we've tested it to the best of our ability, it's very likely to still contain some bugs that we're hoping you'll help us find before we release it to everyone. We are planning to spend about four weeks on testing and bug fixes. * You can not use the API to stop measurements yet. Please use the UI for that for now, and we'll add the ability to stop measurements to the API next week. * Currently, about 1,800 probes are capable of one-off measurements. Unfortunately, the first generation probes are unable to support one-off measurements due to memory limitations. Please note: When setting up new measurements, please use a limited amount of probes (up to about 10), in order to limit the exposure if you encounter something unexpected. Please let us know what elements of the API you find most useful, what features you'd like to see, and, of course, any bugs that you come across. Thank you and happy measuring!
