GetInsightRuleReport

This operation returns the time series data collected by a Contributor Insights rule. The data includes the identity and number of contributors to the log group.

You can also optionally return one or more statistics about each data point in the time series. These statistics can include the following:

  • UniqueContributors -- the number of unique contributors for each data point.

  • MaxContributorValue -- the value of the top contributor for each data point. The identity of the contributor might change for each data point in the graph.

    If this rule aggregates by COUNT, the top contributor for each data point is the contributor with the most occurrences in that period. If the rule aggregates by SUM, the top contributor is the contributor with the highest sum in the log field specified by the rule's Value, during that period.

  • SampleCount -- the number of data points matched by the rule.

  • Sum -- the sum of the values from all contributors during the time period represented by that data point.

  • Minimum -- the minimum value from a single observation during the time period represented by that data point.

  • Maximum -- the maximum value from a single observation during the time period represented by that data point.

  • Average -- the average value from all contributors during the time period represented by that data point.

Request Parameters

For information about the parameters that are common to all actions, see Common Parameters.

EndTime

The end time of the data to use in the report. When used in a raw HTTP Query API, it is formatted as yyyy-MM-dd'T'HH:mm:ss. For example, 2019-07-01T23:59:59.

Type: Timestamp

Required: Yes

MaxContributorCount

The maximum number of contributors to include in the report. The range is 1 to 100. If you omit this, the default of 10 is used.

Type: Integer

Required: No

Metrics.member.N

Specifies which metrics to use for aggregation of contributor values for the report. You can specify one or more of the following metrics:

  • UniqueContributors -- the number of unique contributors for each data point.

  • MaxContributorValue -- the value of the top contributor for each data point. The identity of the contributor might change for each data point in the graph.

    If this rule aggregates by COUNT, the top contributor for each data point is the contributor with the most occurrences in that period. If the rule aggregates by SUM, the top contributor is the contributor with the highest sum in the log field specified by the rule's Value, during that period.

  • SampleCount -- the number of data points matched by the rule.

  • Sum -- the sum of the values from all contributors during the time period represented by that data point.

  • Minimum -- the minimum value from a single observation during the time period represented by that data point.

  • Maximum -- the maximum value from a single observation during the time period represented by that data point.

  • Average -- the average value from all contributors during the time period represented by that data point.

Type: Array of strings

Length Constraints: Minimum length of 1. Maximum length of 32.

Pattern: [\x20-\x7E]+

Required: No

OrderBy

Determines what statistic to use to rank the contributors. Valid values are Sum and Maximum.

Type: String

Length Constraints: Minimum length of 1. Maximum length of 32.

Pattern: [\x20-\x7E]+

Required: No

Period

The period, in seconds, to use for the statistics in the InsightRuleMetricDatapoint results.

Type: Integer

Valid Range: Minimum value of 1.

Required: Yes

RuleName

The name of the rule that you want to see data from.

Type: String

Length Constraints: Minimum length of 1. Maximum length of 128.

Pattern: [\x20-\x7E]+

Required: Yes

StartTime

The start time of the data to use in the report. When used in a raw HTTP Query API, it is formatted as yyyy-MM-dd'T'HH:mm:ss. For example, 2019-07-01T23:59:59.

Type: Timestamp

Required: Yes

Response Elements

The following elements are returned by the service.

AggregateValue

The sum of the values from all individual contributors that match the rule.

Type: Double

AggregationStatistic

Specifies whether this rule aggregates contributor data by COUNT or SUM.

Type: String

ApproximateUniqueCount

An approximate count of the unique contributors found by this rule in this time period.

Type: Long

Contributors.member.N

An array of the unique contributors found by this rule in this time period. If the rule contains multiple keys, each combination of values for the keys counts as a unique contributor.

Type: Array of InsightRuleContributor objects

KeyLabels.member.N

An array of the strings used as the keys for this rule. The keys are the dimensions used to classify contributors. If the rule contains more than one key, then each unique combination of values for the keys is counted as a unique contributor.

Type: Array of strings

MetricDatapoints.member.N

A time series of metric data points that matches the time period in the rule request.

Type: Array of InsightRuleMetricDatapoint objects
