Examples¶
By Time Query¶
A query by time returns a series of data points in time, based on optional filters, time range, and time granularity. This query kind is identified by the keyword: “ap:query:stats:byTime”
POST https://<address>/mgmt/ap/query/v1/tenants/default/products/device/metric-query
This example for JSON body in the post, filters by dimension hostname and get the avg-value-per-sec of wr-bytes
{
"kind": "ap:query:stats:byTime",
"module": "bigip-disk",
"timeRange": {
"from": "-1h",
"to": "now"
},
"timeGranularity": {
"duration": 30,
"unit": "SECONDS"
},
"aggregations": {
"wr-bytes$avg-value-per-sec": {
"metricSet": "wr-bytes",
"metric": "avg-value-per-sec"
}
},
"dimensionFilter": {
"type": "eq",
"dimension": "hostname",
"value": "value to filter by"
}
}
By Entities Query¶
A query by entities returns a sort set of entities, based on optional filters, time range, and choosen metric to sort by. This query kind is identified by the keyword: “ap:query:stats:byEntities”
POST https://<address>/mgmt/ap/query/v1/tenants/default/products/device/metric-query
This example for JSON body in the post, gets top entities of type hostname, sorted by avg-value-per-sec of wr-bytes
{
"kind": "ap:query:stats:byEntities",
"module": "bigip-disk",
"timeRange": {
"from": "-1H",
"to": "now"
},
"dimension": "hostname",
"sortMetric": "wr-bytes$avg-value-per-sec",
"sortOrder": "desc",
"aggregations": {
"wr-bytes$avg-value-per-sec": {
"metricSet": "wr-bytes",
"metric": "avg-value-per-sec"
}
},
"limit": 5
}
Entities Count Query¶
An entities count query returns the distinct count of entities, based on optional filters, time range, and choosen entity type. This query kind is identified by the keyword: “ap:query:stats:entitiesCount”
POST https://<address>/mgmt/ap/query/v1/tenants/default/products/device/metric-query
This example for JSON body in the post, gets the distinct count of entities of type hostname
{
"kind": "ap:query:stats:entitiesCount",
"module": "bigip-disk",
"dimension": "hostname",
"timeRange": {
"from": "-1h",
"to": "now"
}
}
