Timeseries API v1
We have a new version of this API—Metrics API v2. Check it out!
The Timeseries v1 API enables you to manage metrics that Dynatrace collects from the different monitored entities over time.
Get all
Get an overview of all metrics available in your environment.
Get description
Get descriptions of one or several metrics.
Read data points - GET
Fetch data points from metrics you need.
For each metric you can get either one aggregated data point of a list of data points.
Read data points - POST
Fetch data points from metrics you need.
For each metric you can get either one aggregated data point of a list of data points.
In comparison to a GET request, a POST request provides less data about the metric itself.
