For action=summarize_metrics_data, returns aggregated data that match the criteria specified in the request. Compartment OCID required. For information on metric queries, see Building Metric Queries. For important limits information, see Limits on Monitoring. Transactions Per Second (TPS) per-tenancy limit for this operation: 10.

Requirements ¶

The below requirements are needed on the host that executes this module.

python >= 3.6
Python SDK for Oracle Cloud Infrastructure https://oracle-cloud-infrastructure-python-sdk.readthedocs.io

Parameters ¶

Parameter	Choices/Defaults	Comments
action string / required	Choices: summarize_metrics_data	The action to perform on the MetricData.
api_user string		The OCID of the user, on whose behalf, OCI APIs are invoked. If not set, then the value of the OCI_USER_ID environment variable, if any, is used. This option is required if the user is not specified through a configuration file (See `config_file_location`). To get the user's OCID, please refer https://docs.us-phoenix-1.oraclecloud.com/Content/API/Concepts/apisigningkey.htm.
api_user_fingerprint string		Fingerprint for the key pair being used. If not set, then the value of the OCI_USER_FINGERPRINT environment variable, if any, is used. This option is required if the key fingerprint is not specified through a configuration file (See `config_file_location`). To get the key pair's fingerprint value please refer https://docs.us-phoenix-1.oraclecloud.com/Content/API/Concepts/apisigningkey.htm.
api_user_key_file string		Full path and filename of the private key (in PEM format). If not set, then the value of the OCI_USER_KEY_FILE variable, if any, is used. This option is required if the private key is not specified through a configuration file (See `config_file_location`). If the key is encrypted with a pass-phrase, the `api_user_key_pass_phrase` option must also be provided.
api_user_key_pass_phrase string		Passphrase used by the key referenced in `api_user_key_file`, if it is encrypted. If not set, then the value of the OCI_USER_KEY_PASS_PHRASE variable, if any, is used. This option is required if the key passphrase is not specified through a configuration file (See `config_file_location`).
auth_purpose string	Choices: service_principal	The auth purpose which can be used in conjunction with 'auth_type=instance_principal'. The default auth_purpose for instance_principal is None.
auth_type string	Choices: api_key ← instance_principal instance_obo_user resource_principal	The type of authentication to use for making API requests. By default `auth_type="api_key"` based authentication is performed and the API key (see api_user_key_file) in your config file will be used. If this 'auth_type' module option is not specified, the value of the OCI_ANSIBLE_AUTH_TYPE, if any, is used. Use `auth_type="instance_principal"` to use instance principal based authentication when running ansible playbooks within an OCI compute instance.
cert_bundle string		The full path to a CA certificate bundle to be used for SSL verification. This will override the default CA certificate bundle. If not set, then the value of the OCI_ANSIBLE_CERT_BUNDLE variable, if any, is used.
compartment_id string / required		The OCID of the compartment containing the resources monitored by the metric that you are searching for. Use tenancyId to search in the root compartment. Example: `ocid1.compartment.oc1..exampleuniqueID`
compartment_id_in_subtree boolean	Choices: no yes	When true, returns resources from all compartments and subcompartments. The parameter can only be set to true when compartmentId is the tenancy OCID (the tenancy is the root compartment). A true value requires the user to have tenancy-level permissions. If this requirement is not met, then the call is rejected. When false, returns resources from only the compartment specified in compartmentId. Default is false.
config_file_location string		Path to configuration file. If not set then the value of the OCI_CONFIG_FILE environment variable, if any, is used. Otherwise, defaults to ~/.oci/config.
config_profile_name string		The profile to load from the config file referenced by `config_file_location`. If not set, then the value of the OCI_CONFIG_PROFILE environment variable, if any, is used. Otherwise, defaults to the "DEFAULT" profile in `config_file_location`.
end_time string		The end of the time range to use when searching for metric data points. Format is defined by RFC3339. The response excludes metric data points for the endTime. Default value: the timestamp representing when the call was sent. Example: `2019-02-01T02:02:29.600Z`
namespace string / required		The source service or application to use when searching for metric data points to aggregate. Example: `oci_computeagent`
query string / required		The Monitoring Query Language (MQL) expression to use when searching for metric data points to aggregate. The query must specify a metric, statistic, and interval. Supported values for interval depend on the specified time range. More interval values are supported for smaller time ranges. You can optionally specify dimensions and grouping functions. Supported grouping functions: `grouping()`, `groupBy()`. Construct your query to avoid exceeding limits on returned data. See MetricData Reference. For details about Monitoring Query Language (MQL), see L(Monitoring Query Language (MQL) Reference,https://docs.cloud.oracle.com/iaas/Content/Monitoring/Reference/mql.htm). For available dimensions, review the metric definition for the supported service. See Supported Services. Example: `CpuUtilization[1m].sum()`
region string		The Oracle Cloud Infrastructure region to use for all OCI API requests. If not set, then the value of the OCI_REGION variable, if any, is used. This option is required if the region is not specified through a configuration file (See `config_file_location`). Please refer to https://docs.us-phoenix-1.oraclecloud.com/Content/General/Concepts/regions.htm for more information on OCI regions.
resolution string		The time between calculated aggregation windows. Use with the query interval to vary the frequency at which aggregated data points are returned. For example, use a query interval of 5 minutes with a resolution of 1 minute to retrieve five-minute aggregations at a one-minute frequency. The resolution must be equal or less than the interval in the query. The default resolution is 1m (one minute). Supported values: `1m`-`60m`, `1h`-`24h`, `1d`. Example: `5m`
resource_group string		Resource group that you want to match. A null value returns only metric data that has no resource groups. The specified resource group must exist in the definition of the posted metric. Only one resource group can be applied per metric. A valid resourceGroup value starts with an alphabetical character and includes only alphanumeric characters, periods (.), underscores (_), hyphens (-), and dollar signs ($). Example: `frontend-fleet`
start_time string		The beginning of the time range to use when searching for metric data points. Format is defined by RFC3339. The response includes metric data points for the startTime. Default value: the timestamp 3 hours before the call was sent. Example: `2019-02-01T01:02:29.600Z`
tenancy string		OCID of your tenancy. If not set, then the value of the OCI_TENANCY variable, if any, is used. This option is required if the tenancy OCID is not specified through a configuration file (See `config_file_location`). To get the tenancy OCID, please refer https://docs.us-phoenix-1.oraclecloud.com/Content/API/Concepts/apisigningkey.htm

Return Values ¶

Common return values are documented here, the following are the fields unique to this module:

Key			Returned	Description
