Retrieve time-series data

This document explains how to read metric data, also called time-series data, by using the timeSeries.list method in the Monitoring API. This document explains how to use client libraries to call the timeSeries.list method.

Overview

Each call to the timeSeries.list method can return any number of time series from a single metric type. For example, if you are using Compute Engine, then the compute.googleapis.com/instance/cpu/usage_time metric type has a separate time series for each of your VM instances. For an introduction to metrics and time series, see Metrics, time series, and resources.

You specify the time-series data that you want by providing the following information to the timeSeries.list method:

  • A filter expression that specifies the metric type. Optionally, the filter selects a subset of the metric's time series by specifying the resources producing the time series or specifying values for certain labels in the time series.
  • A time interval that limits how much data is returned.
  • Optionally, a specification of how to combine multiple time series to produce an aggregate summary of the data. For more information and examples, see Aggregating data.

Time-series filters

You specify which time series to retrieve by passing a time-series filter to the timeSeries.list method. The following lists the common filter components:

  • The filter must specify a single metric type. For example:

    metric.type = "compute.googleapis.com/instance/cpu/usage_time"

    To retrieve user-defined metrics, change the metric.type prefix in the filter to custom.googleapis.com or another prefix if used; external.googleapis.com is frequently used.

  • The filter can specify values for the metric's dimension labels. The metric type determines which labels are present. For example:

    (metric.label.instance_name = "your-instance-id" OR
metric.label.instance_name = "your-other-instance-id")

    In the previous expression, label is correct even though the actual metric object uses labels as its key.

  • The filter can select only those time series that contain a specific monitored resource type:

    resource.type = "gce_instance"

The filter components can be combined into a single time series filter, such as the following:

metric.type = "compute.googleapis.com/instance/cpu/usage_time" AND
(metric.label.instance_name = "your-instance-id" OR
metric.label.instance_name = "your-other-instance-id")

If you don't specify values for all metric labels, then the list method returns a time series for each combination of values in the unspecified labels. The method returns only time series that have data.

Time intervals

When you use the API to read data, you specify the time interval for which you want to retrieve data by setting start and end times. The API retrieves data from the interval (start, end], that is, from after the start time through the end time.

The start time must be no later than the end time. If you specify a start time that is later than the end time, then the API returns an error.

If you want to retrieve only data with a specific timestamp, then set the start time equal to the end time, or equivalently, don't set the start time.

Time format

Start and end times must be specified as strings in RFC 3339 format. For example:

2024-03-01T12:34:56+04:00
2024-03-01T12:34:56.992Z

The date -Iseconds command on Linux is useful for generating timestamps.

Basic list operations

The timeSeries.list method can be used to return simple, raw data, or it can be used to return highly processed data. This section illustrates how to list the available time series and how to get the values in a specific time series.

Example: Listing available time series

This example shows how to list only the names and descriptions of the time series that match a filter, rather than returning all the available data:

Example: Getting time series data

This example returns the CPU utilization measurements that were recorded over a 20-minute interval for a specific Compute Engine instance. The amount of data returned depends on the sampling rate of the metric. Because the CPU utilization is sampled every minute, the results of this query is about 20 data points. When multiple data points are returned for a time series, the API returns the data points in each time series in reverse time order; there is no override for this point ordering.

Aggregating data

The timeSeries.list method can perform statistical aggregations and reductions on the returned time series data. The following sections demonstrate two examples. To to learn more, see Filtering and aggregation: manipulating time series.

Example: Aligning time series

This example reduces the 20 individual utilization measurements in each time series to 2 measurements: the mean utilization for the two 10-minute periods within the 20-minute interval. The data from each time series is first aligned into 10-minute periods, and then the values in each 10-minute period are averaged.

The alignment operation has two advantages: it smooths out the data, and it aligns the data from all time-series data on exact 10-minute boundaries. The aligned data can then be processed further.
