Request parameters

Table 2 describes the request parameters.

**Table 2** Request parameters
Parameter	Mandatory	Type	Value Range	Description
metrics	Yes	JSON array	A maximum of 20 metrics are supported. See Table 3.	List of metrics.
period	Yes	Integer	Enumerated value. Options: 60: The data monitoring granularity is 1 minute. 300: The data monitoring granularity is 5 minutes. 900: The data monitoring granularity is 15 minutes. 3600: The data monitoring granularity is 1 hour.	Data monitoring granularity.
timerange	Yes	String	Format: start time (UTC, in ms).end time (UTC, in ms).number of minutes in the time period. When the start time and end time are –1, it indicates the latest N minutes.
