A closed time interval. It extends from the start time to the end time, and includes both: [startTime, endTime]. Valid time intervals depend on the MetricKind of the metric value. The end time must not be earlier than the start time. When writing data points, the start time must not be more than 25 hours in the past and the end time must not be more than five minutes in the future.
For GAUGE metrics, the startTime value is technically optional; if
no value is specified, the start time defaults to the value of the
end time, and the interval represents a single point in time. If both
start and end times are specified, they must be identical. Such an
interval is valid only for GAUGE metrics, which are point-in-time
measurements. The end time of a new interval must be at least a
millisecond after the end time of the previous interval.
For DELTA metrics, the start time and end time must specify a
non-zero interval, with subsequent points specifying contiguous and
non-overlapping intervals. For DELTA metrics, the start time of
the next interval must be at least a millisecond after the end time
of the previous interval.
For CUMULATIVE metrics, the start time and end time must specify a
non-zero interval, with subsequent points specifying the same
start time and increasing end times, until an event resets the
cumulative value to zero and sets a new start time for the following
points. The new start time must be at least a millisecond after the
end time of the previous interval.
The start time of a new interval must be at least a millisecond after the
end time of the previous interval because intervals are closed. If the
start time of a new interval is the same as the end time of the previous
interval, then data written at the new start time could overwrite data
written at the previous end time.
Optional. The beginning of the time interval. The default value
for the start time is the end time. The start time must not be
later than the end time.
