metric_data(id, names, values=None, from_dt=None, to_dt=None, summarize=False)¶

This API endpoint returns a list of values for each of the requested metrics. The list of available metrics can be returned using the Metric Name API endpoint.

Metric data can be filtered by a number of parameters, including multiple names and values, and by time range. Metric names and values will be matched intelligently in the background.

You can also retrieve a summarized data point across the entire time range selected by using the summarize parameter.

Note All times sent and received are formatted in UTC. The default time range is the last 30 minutes.

Parameters:	id (int) – Component ID names (list of str) – Retrieve specific metrics by name values (list of str) – Retrieve specific metric values from_dt (datetime) – Retrieve metrics after this time to_dt (datetime) – Retrieve metrics before this time summarize (bool) – Summarize the data
Return type:	dict
Returns:	The JSON response of the API

    "metric_data": {
        "from": "time",
        "to": "time",
