| -------- | ------- | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| from     | integer | Unix timestamp (number of seconds since epoch) of the start of the query window. If not provided, the start of the query window is 15 minutes before the `to` timestamp. If neither `from` nor `to` are provided, the query window is `[now - 15m, now]`. |
| to       | integer | Unix timestamp (number of seconds since epoch) of the end of the query window. If not provided, the end of the query window is the current time. If neither `from` nor `to` are provided, the query window is `[now - 15m, now]`.                         |
| group_by | string  | Comma-separated list of fields to group connections by. The maximum number of group_by(s) is 10.                                                                                                                                                          |

| query    | string  | Free-form search query using AND/OR/NOT operators, wildcards, and parentheses. When provided, takes precedence over the `tags` parameter.                                                                                                                 |

| attributes           | rtt_micro_seconds           | int64    | Measured as TCP smoothed round trip time in microseconds (the time between a TCP frame being sent and acknowledged).                                                                                    |
| attributes           | tcp_closed_connections      | int64    | The number of TCP connections in a closed state. Measured in connections per second from the client.                                                                                                    |
| attributes           | tcp_delivered_ce            | int64    | The number of TCP segments acknowledged with the ECN Congestion Experienced (CE) mark, indicating that an upstream router marked packets as experiencing congestion.                                    |
| attributes           | tcp_established_connections | int64    | The number of TCP connections in an established state. Measured in connections per second from the client.                                                                                              |
| attributes           | tcp_probe0_count            | int64    | The number of TCP zero-window probes sent. These probes are sent when the receiver advertises a zero receive window, indicating it cannot accept more data.                                             |
| attributes           | tcp_rcv_ooo_pack            | int64    | The number of TCP packets received out of order. This indicates network-level packet reordering, which can degrade TCP performance by triggering spurious retransmissions and reducing throughput.      |
| attributes           | tcp_recovery_count          | int64    | The number of TCP fast recovery events. Fast recovery retransmits lost segments detected through duplicate ACKs or selective acknowledgment (SACK) without waiting for a retransmission timeout.        |
| attributes           | tcp_refusals                | int64    | The number of TCP connections that were refused by the server. Typically this indicates an attempt to connect to an IP/port that is not receiving connections, or a firewall/security misconfiguration. |
| attributes           | tcp_reord_seen              | int64    | The number of times reordering of sent packets was detected. Reordering detection adjusts the duplicate ACK threshold, preventing spurious retransmissions caused by out-of-order delivery.             |
| attributes           | tcp_resets                  | int64    | The number of TCP connections that were reset by the server.                                                                                                                                            |
| attributes           | tcp_retransmits             | int64    | TCP Retransmits represent detected failures that are retransmitted to ensure delivery. Measured in count of retransmits from the client.                                                                |
| attributes           | tcp_rto_count               | int64    | The number of TCP retransmission timeouts (RTOs). An RTO occurs when an ACK is not received within the estimated round-trip time, forcing the sender to retransmit and halve its congestion window.     |
| attributes           | tcp_timeouts                | int64    | The number of TCP connections that timed out from the perspective of the operating system. This can indicate general connectivity and latency issues.                                                   |
| data                 | id                          | string   | A unique identifier for the aggregated connection based on the group by values.                                                                                                                         |
| data                 | type                        | enum     | Aggregated connection resource type. Allowed enum values: `aggregated_connection`                                                                                                                       |
