Querying Monitoring Data

Function

This API is used to query monitoring data of metrics within a specified time period. You can specify a dimension or period to query.

URI

POST /v1/{project_id}/ams/metricdata

**Table 1** Path Parameters
Parameter	Mandatory	Type	Description
project_id	Yes	String	Project ID obtained from IAM. Generally, a project ID contains 32 characters.

**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 the 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.
Content-Type	Yes	String	Content type, which is application/json. Enumeration values: application/json
X-Aom-Prometheus-Id	No	String	Prometheus instance ID. If this parameter is left blank, the default Prometheus instance is used.

**Table 4** Request body parameters
Parameter	Mandatory	Type	Description
metrics	Yes	Array of MetricQueryMeritcParam objects	Metric list. Values: A JSON array can contain up to 20 objects.
period	Yes	Integer	Granularity for monitoring data. Enumerated value. Values: 60: 1 minute. 300: 5 minutes. 900: 15 minutes. 3600: 1 hour. Enumeration values: 60 300 900 3600
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 of the query, in milliseconds. If this parameter is set to -1, the server calculates the start time as follows: endTimeInMillis – durationInMinutes x 60 x 1000. For example, -1.1650852300000.5 is equivalent to 1650852000000.1650852300000.5. endTimeInMillis: End time of the query, in milliseconds. If this parameter is set to -1, the server calculates the end time as follows: startTimeInMillis + durationInMinutes x 60 x 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: Time span, in minutes. The value must be greater than 0 and greater than or equal to the result of "(endTimeInMillis – startTimeInMillis)/(60 x 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 x 60 x 1000. For example, -1.-1.60 indicates the latest 60 minutes. Constraint: In a single request, the following condition must be met: durationInMinutes x 60/period ≤ 1440

**Table 5** MetricQueryMeritcParam
Parameter	Mandatory	Type	Description
dimensions	Yes	Array of Dimension objects	List of metric dimensions. Note: Neither the array nor the name or value of any dimension in the array can be left blank.
metricName	Yes	String	Metric name. Length: 1 to 255 characters. Values: cpuUage: CPU usage. cpuCoreUsed: used CPU cores. Custom metrics.
namespace	Yes	String	Metric namespace. Values: 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. CUSTOM.Prometheus: namespace of Prometheus metrics. Namespace of custom metrics.
