time_aggr: avg, sum, max, min, change, or pct_change
time_window: last_#m (with # between 1 and 10080 depending on the monitor type) or last_#h(with # between 1 and 168 depending on the monitor type) or last_1d, or last_1w
space_aggr: avg, sum, min, or max
tags: one or more tags (comma-separated), or *
key: a ‘key’ in key:value tag syntax; defines a separate alert for each tag in the group (multi-alert)
operator: <, <=, >, >=, ==, or !=
#: an integer or decimal number used to set the threshold
If you are using the _change_ or _pct_change_ time aggregator, instead use change_aggr(time_aggr(time_window), timeshift):space_aggr:metric{tags} [by {key}] operator # with:
time_window last_#m (between 1 and 2880 depending on the monitor type), last_#h (between 1 and 48 depending on the monitor type), or last_#d (1 or 2)
timeshift #m_ago (5, 10, 15, or 30), #h_ago (1, 2, or 4), or 1d_ago
Use this to create an outlier monitor using the following query:
avg(last_30m):outliers(avg:system.cpu.user{role:es-events-data} by {host}, 'dbscan', 7) > 0
check name of the check, for example datadog.agent.up
tags one or more quoted tags (comma-separated), or “*”. for example: .over("env:prod", "role:db"); over cannot be blank.
count must be at greater than or equal to your max threshold (defined in the options). It is limited to 100.
For example, if you’ve specified to notify on 1 critical, 3 ok, and 2 warn statuses, count should be at least 3.
group must be specified for check monitors. Per-check grouping is already explicitly known for some service checks.
For example, Postgres integration monitors are tagged by db, host, and port, and Network monitors by host, instance, and url. See Service Checks documentation for more information.
Example: 12345 && 67890, where 12345 and 67890 are the IDs of non-composite monitors

When getting all monitor details via the API, use the monitor_tags argument to filter results by these tags.

A message to include with a re-notification. Supports the @username notification we allow elsewhere.
Not applicable if renotify_interval is None.
evaluation_delay
int64
Time (in seconds) to delay evaluation, as a non-negative integer. For example, if the value is set to 300 (5min),
the timeframe is set to last_5m and the time is 7:00, the monitor evaluates data from 6:50 to 6:55.
This is useful for AWS CloudWatch and other backfilled metrics to ensure the monitor always has data during evaluation.

The minimum value is one hour, and the maximum value is 72 hours.

For instance, a monitor grouped by cluster, namespace, and pod can be configured to only notify on each
new cluster violating the alert conditions by setting notify_by to ["cluster"]. Tags mentioned
in notify_by must be a subset of the grouping tags in the query.
For example, a query grouped by cluster and namespace cannot notify on region.
Setting notify_by to [*] configures the monitor to notify as a simple-alert.

A Boolean indicating whether this monitor notifies when data stops reporting.
on_missing_data
enum
Controls how groups or monitors are treated if an evaluation does not return any data points.
The default option results in different behavior depending on the monitor query type.
For monitors using Count queries, an empty monitor evaluation is treated as 0 and is compared to the threshold conditions.
For monitors using any query type other than Count, for example Gauge, Measure, or Rate, the monitor shows the last known status.
This option is only available for APM Trace Analytics, Audit Trail, CI, Error Tracking, Event, Logs, and RUM monitors.
Allowed enum values: default,show_no_data,show_and_notify_no_data,resolve

[string]
Controls what granularity a monitor alerts on. Only available for monitors with groupings.
For instance, a monitor grouped by cluster, namespace, and pod can be configured to only notify on each
new cluster violating the alert conditions by setting notify_by to ["cluster"]. Tags mentioned
in notify_by must be a subset of the grouping tags in the query.
For example, a query grouped by cluster and namespace cannot notify on region.
Setting notify_by to [*] configures the monitor to notify as a simple-alert.
notify_no_data
boolean
A Boolean indicating whether this monitor notifies when data stops reporting.
on_missing_data
enum
Controls how groups or monitors are treated if an evaluation does not return any data points.
The default option results in different behavior depending on the monitor query type.
For monitors using Count queries, an empty monitor evaluation is treated as 0 and is compared to the threshold conditions.
For monitors using any query type other than Count, for example Gauge, Measure, or Rate, the monitor shows the last known status.
This option is only available for APM Trace Analytics, Audit Trail, CI, Error Tracking, Event, Logs, and RUM monitors.
Allowed enum values: default,show_no_data,show_and_notify_no_data,resolve

otherwise some evaluations are skipped. Default is false.

For example, a query grouped by cluster and namespace cannot notify on region.
Setting notify_by to [*] configures the monitor to notify as a simple-alert.

A Boolean indicating whether this monitor notifies when data stops reporting.
on_missing_data
enum
Controls how groups or monitors are treated if an evaluation does not return any data points.
The default option results in different behavior depending on the monitor query type.
For monitors using Count queries, an empty monitor evaluation is treated as 0 and is compared to the threshold conditions.
For monitors using any query type other than Count, for example Gauge, Measure, or Rate, the monitor shows the last known status.
This option is only available for APM Trace Analytics, Audit Trail, CI, Error Tracking, Event, Logs, and RUM monitors.
