REST Resource: services

Resource: Service

A Service is a discrete, autonomous, and network-accessible unit, designed to solve an individual concern (Wikipedia). In Cloud Monitoring, a Service acts as the root resource under which operational aspects of the service are accessible.

Fields
name

string

Resource name for this Service. The format is:

projects/[PROJECT_ID_OR_NUMBER]/services/[SERVICE_ID]
displayName

string

Name used for UI elements listing this Service.
telemetry

object (Telemetry)

Configuration for how to query telemetry on a Service.
userLabels

map (key: string, value: string)

Labels which have been used to annotate the service. Label keys must start with a letter. Label keys and values may contain lowercase letters, numbers, underscores, and dashes. Label keys and values have a maximum length of 63 characters, and must be less than 128 bytes in size. Up to 64 label entries may be stored. For labels which do not have a semantic value, the empty string may be supplied for the label value.

An object containing a list of "key": value pairs. Example: { "name": "wrench", "mass": "1.3kg", "count": "3" }.
Union field identifier. REQUIRED. Service-identifying atoms specifying the underlying service. identifier can be only one of the following:
custom

object (Custom)

Custom service type.
appEngine

object (AppEngine)

Type used for App Engine services.
clusterIstio

object (ClusterIstio)

Type used for Istio services that live in a Kubernetes cluster.
meshIstio

object (MeshIstio)

Type used for Istio services scoped to an Istio mesh.
istioCanonicalService

object (IstioCanonicalService)

Type used for canonical services scoped to an Istio mesh. Metrics for Istio are documented here
