DescribeAlarmMetrics

POST

Query the list of alarm metrics.

Wire call

Converge Cloud is RPC over HTTP. There is one path — / — and the action travels in the X-TC-Action header. The /monitor/DescribeAlarmMetrics path used in the OpenAPI document is a documentation convenience so each action is addressable; it is not a route on the server.

curl

curl -sS https://monitor.api3.convergecloud.com/ \
  -H 'Authorization: TC3-HMAC-SHA256 Credential=<SecretId>/<YYYY-MM-DD>/monitor/tc3_request, SignedHeaders=content-type;host;x-tc-action, Signature=<sig>' \
  -H 'Content-Type: application/json; charset=utf-8' \
  -H 'Host: monitor.api3.convergecloud.com' \

  -H 'X-TC-Version: 2018-07-24' \
  -H 'X-TC-Timestamp: <unix-seconds>' \

Request parameters

Field	Type	Required	Description
Module	string	Yes	Value fixed at "monitor"
MonitorType	string	Yes	Monitor type filter. Valid values: MT_QCE (Converge Cloud service monitoring)
Namespace	string	Yes	Alarm policy type such as cvm_device, which is obtained through the `DescribeAllNamespaces` API

Response

Fields are returned inside the Response envelope. Converge Cloud answers HTTP 200 for errors as well as successes, so read Response.Error rather than the status code — and test for the presence of that object, because Code is occasionally the empty string.

Field	Type	Description
Metrics	Metric[]	Alarm metric list
RequestId	string	The unique request ID, generated by the server, will be returned for every request (if the request fails to reach the server for other reasons, the request will not obtain a RequestId). RequestId is required for locating a problem.

Success

{
  "Response": {
    "Metrics": …,
    "RequestId": "…"
  }
}

Error

{
  "Response": {
    "Error": { "Code": "…", "Message": "…" },
    "RequestId": "…"
  }
}
