Metrics
========
When Monitoring checks run, they generate metrics. These metrics are
stored as full resolution data points in the Cloud Monitoring system.
Full resolution data points are periodically rolled up (condensed) into
coarser data points.
Depending on your needs, you can use the metrics API to fetch individual
data points (fine-grained) or rolled up data points (coarse-grained)
over a period of time.
Data Granularity
----------------
Cloud Monitoring supports several granularities of data: full resolution
data and rollups computed at 5, 20, 60, 240 and 1440 minute intervals.
When you fetch metrics data points, you specify several parameters to
control the granularity of data returned:
- A time range for the points
- Either the number of points you want returned OR the resolution of
the data you want returned
When you query by points, the API selects the resolution that will
return you the number of points you requested. The API makes the
assumption of a 30 second frequency, performs the calculation, and
selects the appropriate resolution.
**Note:** Because the API performs calculations to determine the points
returned for a particular resolution, the number of points returned may
differ from the specific number of points you request.
Consider that you want to query data for a 48-hour time range between
the timestamps ``from=1354647221000`` and ``to=1358794421000`` (
**specified in Unix time, based on the number of milliseconds that have
elapsed since January 1, 1970** ). The following table shows the number
of points that the API returns for a given resolution.

| FULL | 2 days |
+--------------+--------------+
| MIN5 | 7 days |
+--------------+--------------+

Setup
------
In order to interact with this feature, you must first retrieve an entity by
its ID:
.. code-block:: php
$entity = $service->getEntity('{entityId}');
and then a particular check, about which you can configure alarms:
.. code-block:: php
$check = $entity->getCheck('{checkId}');
For more information about these resource types, please consult the documentation
about `entities <entities>`_ and `checks <checks>`_.
List all metrics
----------------
.. code-block:: php
$metrics = $check->getMetrics();
foreach ($metrics as $metric) {
echo $metric->getName();
}
Fetch data points
-----------------
.. code-block:: php
$data = $check->fetchDataPoints('mzdfw.available', array(
'resolution' => 'FULL',
'from' => 1369756378450,
'to' => 1369760279018
));
