Request Parameters

Parameter Parm Type Data Type Required Description
APIVersionID Path string Required The unique ID for a specific API version.
ContractID Path string Optional The unique ID for a specific contract between an app version and an API version.
AppVersionID Path string Optional The unique ID for a specific app version.
ReportType Query string Optional The type of metric information. For valid values, see ReportType.
Environment Query string Optional The environment (implementation) (Sandbox or Production). If not specified, defaults to Production.
StartDate Query string Optional The beginning point for the date range of metric information requested. Format: YYYY-MM-DD:THH:MM:SS. Example: StartDate=2011-01-01T11:55:22. If StartDate is not specified, the operation uses EndDate minus Duration. If both StartDate and EndDate are unspecified, the operation returns information for the Duration value, and if Duration is also unspecified it returns default Duration value of 2 hours.
EndDate Query string Optional The ending point for the date range of metric information requested. Format: YYYY-MM-DD:THH:MM:SS. Example: EndDate=2011-01-02T11:55:22. If not specified, defaults to the current date/time of the API call.
TimeZone Query string Optional The time zone for the information. If a time zone isn't specified, the information is returned in GMT. For more information, refer to Working with Time Zones and Time Intervals.
TimeInterval Query string Optional The time interval for the metric information to be returned. For example, you might want data points every 10 seconds. If not specified, defaults to five-second intervals (5s). The StartDate, EndDate, and Duration fields work together to define the information to be returned; the TimeInterval determines the data points. For more information, refer to Working with Time Zones and Time Intervals.
Duration Query string Optional The duration for the metric information. For example, you might want metric information for a 24-hour period or only for an hour. The StartDate, EndDate, and Duration fields work together to define the information to be returned. If not specified, defaults to two hours (2h).
ShowSummary Query boolean Optional Indicates whether a summary of the metric information should be included in the information returned. For example, if the metric information includes daily metrics for 7 days, the summary would include one set of totals. If not specified, this defaults to false, meaning that no summary is included.
