submit_series
Submit time-series data to Datadog for dashboard graphing and monitoring, supporting compressed payloads up to 500KB with precise timestamp and value specifications.
Instructions
The metrics end-point allows you to post time-series data that can be graphed on Datadog’s dashboards. The maximum payload size is 500 kilobytes (512000 bytes). Compressed payloads must have a decompressed size of less than 5 megabytes (5242880 bytes).
If you’re submitting metrics directly to the Datadog API without using DogStatsD, expect:
- 64 bits for the timestamp 
- 64 bits for the value 
- 20 bytes for the metric names 
- 50 bytes for the timeseries 
- The full payload is approximately 100 bytes. 
Host name is one of the resources in the Resources field.
