There are more AWS SDK examples available in the AWS Doc SDK Examples GitHub repo.
Code examples for CloudWatch using AWS SDKs
The following code examples show you how to use Amazon CloudWatch with an AWS software development kit (SDK).
Basics are code examples that show you how to perform the essential operations within a service.
Actions are code excerpts from larger programs and must be run in context. While actions
show you how to call individual service functions, you can see actions in context in their related scenarios.
Scenarios are code examples that show you how to accomplish specific tasks by
calling multiple functions within a service or combined with other AWS services.
Get started
The following code examples show how to get started using CloudWatch.
- .NET
-
- AWS SDK for .NET
-
using Amazon.CloudWatch;
using Amazon.CloudWatch.Model;
using Microsoft.Extensions.DependencyInjection;
using Microsoft.Extensions.Hosting;
namespace CloudWatchActions;
public static class HelloCloudWatch
{
static async Task Main(string[] args)
{
// Use the AWS .NET Core Setup package to set up dependency injection for the Amazon CloudWatch service.
// Use your AWS profile name, or leave it blank to use the default profile.
using var host = Host.CreateDefaultBuilder(args)
.ConfigureServices((_, services) =>
services.AddAWSService<IAmazonCloudWatch>()
).Build();
// Now the client is available for injection.
var cloudWatchClient = host.Services.GetRequiredService<IAmazonCloudWatch>();
// You can use await and any of the async methods to get a response.
var metricNamespace = "AWS/Billing";
var response = await cloudWatchClient.ListMetricsAsync(new ListMetricsRequest
{
Namespace = metricNamespace
});
Console.WriteLine($"Hello Amazon CloudWatch! Following are some metrics available in the {metricNamespace} namespace:");
Console.WriteLine();
foreach (var metric in response.Metrics.Take(5))
{
Console.WriteLine($"\tMetric: {metric.MetricName}");
Console.WriteLine($"\tNamespace: {metric.Namespace}");
Console.WriteLine($"\tDimensions: {string.Join(", ", metric.Dimensions.Select(m => $"{m.Name}:{m.Value}"))}");
Console.WriteLine();
}
}
