Field

Type

Description

data

object

The span-based metric properties.

attributes

object

The object describing a Datadog span-based metric.

compute

object

The compute rule to compute the span-based metric.

aggregation_type

enum

The type of aggregation to use. Allowed enum values: count,distribution

include_percentiles

boolean

Toggle to include or exclude percentile aggregations for distribution metrics. Only present when the aggregation_type is distribution.

path

string

The path to the value the span-based metric will aggregate on (only used if the aggregation type is a "distribution").

filter

object

The span-based metric filter. Spans matching this filter will be aggregated in this metric.

query

string

The search query - following the span search syntax.

group_by

[object]

The rules for the group by.

path

string

The path to the value the span-based metric will be aggregated over.

tag_name

string

Eventual name of the tag that gets created. By default, the path attribute is used as the tag name.

id

string

The name of the span-based metric.

type

enum

The type of resource. The value should always be spans_metrics. Allowed enum values: spans_metrics

default: spans_metrics
