submit_series
Submit time-series data to Datadog for dashboard graphing and monitoring, supporting compressed payloads up to 500KB with precise timestamp and value specifications.
Instructions
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.
