Ingest a Custom Metric and Verify It
with Dynatrace · Observability Management
Ingest MINT metric lines, confirm registration, and query the data back.
- Ingest custom metric data points using the MINT line protocol. Data is processed asynchronously and accepted with a 202 status.
- List metrics filtered by the metric selector to confirm the custom metric descriptor has been registered in the environment.
- Query the metric data points back over the time range to verify the ingested values are now retrievable.
What you'll need to have ready
- mintPayload: One or more MINT line-protocol records, one per line (e.g. "custom.response.time,host=web-01 gauge=250.5").
- metricSelector: The metric selector used to find and query the ingested metric.
- from: Start of the queried time range when reading the data back.
