provider Metrics POST
/api/v2/series @utdk/datadog
/api/v2/series Submit metrics
The metrics end-point allows you to post time-series data that can be graphed on Datadog’s dashboards.
The maximum payload size is 500 kilobytes (512000 bytes). Compressed payloads must have a decompressed size of less than 5 megabytes (5242880 bytes).
If you’re submitting metrics directly to the Datadog API without using DogStatsD, expect:
- 64 bits for the timestamp
- 64 bits for the value
- 20 bytes for the metric names
- 50 bytes for the timeseries
- The full payload is approximately 100 bytes.
Host name is one of the resources in the Resources field.
- Content-Encoding header
- HTTP header used to compress the media-type.
- enum: deflate, zstd1, gzip
