Querying Monitoring Data

Function

This API is used to query monitoring data of metrics within a specified period. You can specify a dimension or period to query. (This API will not evolve. You are advised to use Querying Expression Calculation Results in a Specified Period Using the POST Method.)

Calling Method

For details, see Calling APIs.

URI

POST /v1/{project_id}/ams/metricdata

**Table 1** Path Parameters
Parameter	Mandatory	Type	Description
project_id	Yes	String	Project ID, which can be obtained from the console or by calling an API. For details, see Obtaining a Project ID.

**Table 2** Query Parameters
Parameter	Mandatory	Type	Description
fillValue	No	String	Value filled for breakpoints in monitoring data. Default value: –1. –1: Breakpoints are filled with –1. 0: Breakpoints are filled with 0. null: Breakpoints are filled with null. average: Breakpoints are filled with the average value of adjacent valid data. If there is no valid data, breakpoints are filled with null. Enumeration values: -1 0 null average

Request Parameters

**Table 3** Request header parameters
Parameter	Mandatory	Type	Description
X-Auth-Token	Yes	String	User token obtained from IAM. For details, see Obtaining a Token.
Content-Type	Yes	String	Message body type or format. Content type, which is application/json. Enumeration values: application/json

**Table 4** Request body parameters
Parameter	Mandatory	Type	Description
metrics	Yes	Array of MetricQueryMetricParam objects	Metric list. A JSON array can contain up to 20 objects.
period	Yes	Integer	Monitoring data granularity. Options: 60: The granularity is 1 minute. 300: The granularity is 5 minutes. 900: The granularity is 15 minutes. 3600: The granularity is 1 hour.
statistics	Yes	Array of strings	Statistic. Values: maximum, minimum, sum, average, and sampleCount.
timerange	Yes	String	Time range specified to query data of the last N minutes when the client time is inconsistent with the server time. It can also be used to accurately query the data of a specified period. Example: -1.-1.60: indicates that the data of the latest 60 minutes is queried. This query is based on the server time regardless of the current client time. 1650852000000.1650852300000.5: indicates the five minutes from 10:00:00 to 10:05:00 on April 25, 2022 GMT+08:00. Format: startTimeInMillis.endTimeInMillis.durationInMinutes Parameter description: startTimeInMillis: start time (UTC) of the query, in milliseconds. If this parameter is set to -1, the server calculates the start time as follows: endTimeInMillis – durationInMinutes × 60 × 1000. For example, -1.1650852300000.5 is equivalent to 1650852000000.1650852300000.5. endTimeInMillis: end time (UTC) of the query, in milliseconds. If this parameter is set to -1, the server calculates the end time as follows: startTimeInMillis + durationInMinutes × 60 × 1000. If the calculated end time is later than the current system time, the current system time is used. For example, 1650852000000.-1.5 is equivalent to 1650852000000.1650852300000.5. durationInMinutes: query time span, in minutes. The value must be greater than 0 and greater than or equal to the result of (endTimeInMillis – startTimeInMillis)/(60 ×1000) – 1. If both the start time and end time are set to -1, the system sets the end time to the current UTC time (in milliseconds) and calculates the start time as follows: endTimeInMillis – durationInMinutes × 60 × 1000. For example, -1.-1.60 indicates the latest 60 minutes. Constraint: In a single request, the following condition must be met: durationInMinutes × 60/period ≤ 1,440

**Table 5** MetricQueryMetricParam
Parameter	Mandatory	Type	Description
dimensions	Yes	Array of Dimension objects	List of time series dimensions. To query the time series dimension list, call the API Querying Time Series Objects. Neither the array nor the name/value of any dimension in the array can be left blank.
metricName	Yes	String	Metric name. Length: 1 to 255 characters. Options: basic metrics (such as cpuUsage and cpuCoreUsed) provided by AOM, and custom metrics. To query metrics, call the API Querying Tag Values.
namespace	Yes	String	Metric namespace. Options: PAAS.CONTAINER: namespace of component, instance, process, and container metrics. PAAS.NODE: namespace of host, network, disk, and file system metrics. PAAS.SLA: namespace of SLA metrics. PAAS.AGGR: namespace of cluster metrics. CUSTOMMETRICS: default namespace of custom metrics. Custom namespaces are also supported. To query namespaces, call the API Querying Tag Values.

**Table 6** Dimension
Parameter	Mandatory	Type	Description
name	Yes	String	Dimension name.
value	Yes	String	Dimension value.
