The Group API lets you inspect and manage your groups <#google.monitoring.v3.Group>__.

A group is a named filter that is used to identify a collection of monitored resources. Groups are typically used to mirror the physical and/or logical topology of the environment. Because group membership is computed dynamically, monitored resources that are started in the future are automatically placed in matching groups. By using a group to name monitored resources in, for example, an alert policy, the target of that alert policy is updated automatically as monitored resources are added and removed from the infrastructure.

Methods

GroupServiceClient

GroupServiceClient(
    transport=None,
    channel=None,
    credentials=None,
    client_config=None,
    client_info=None,
    client_options=None,
)

Constructor.

Parameters
Name	Description
channel	grpc.Channel DEPRECATED. A Channel instance through which to make calls. This argument is mutually exclusive with credentials; providing both will raise an exception.
credentials	google.auth.credentials.Credentials The authorization credentials to attach to requests. These credentials identify this application to the service. If none are specified, the client will attempt to ascertain the credentials from the environment. This argument is mutually exclusive with providing a transport instance to transport; doing so will raise an exception.
client_config	dict DEPRECATED. A dictionary of call options for each method. If not specified, the default configuration is used.
client_info	google.api_core.gapic_v1.client_info.ClientInfo The client info used to send a user-agent string along with API requests. If None, then default info will be used. Generally, you only need to set this if you're developing your own client library.
client_options	Union[dict, google.api_core.client_options.ClientOptions] Client options used to set user options on the client. API Endpoint should be set through client_options.

create_group

create_group(name, group, validate_only=None, retry=<_MethodDefault._DEFAULT_VALUE: <object object>>, timeout=<_MethodDefault._DEFAULT_VALUE: <object object>>, metadata=None)

Creates a new group.

.. rubric:: Example

from google.cloud import monitoring_v3

client = monitoring_v3.GroupServiceClient()

name = client.project_path('[PROJECT]')

TODO: Initialize group:

group = {}

response = client.create_group(name, group)

Parameters
Name	Description
name	str The project in which to create the group. The format is "projects/{project_id_or_number}".
group	Union[dict, Group] A group definition. It is an error to define the name field because the system assigns the name. If a dict is provided, it must be of the same form as the protobuf message Group
validate_only	bool If true, validate this request but do not create the group.
retry	Optional[google.api_core.retry.Retry] A retry object used to retry requests. If None is specified, requests will be retried using a default configuration.
timeout	Optional[float] The amount of time, in seconds, to wait for the request to complete. Note that if retry is specified, the timeout applies to each individual attempt.
metadata	Optional[Sequence[Tuple[str, str]]] Additional metadata that is provided to the method.

Exceptions
Type	Description
google.api_core.exceptions.GoogleAPICallError	If the request failed for any reason.
google.api_core.exceptions.RetryError	If the request failed due to a retryable error and retry attempts failed.
ValueError	If the parameters are invalid.

delete_group

delete_group(name, recursive=None, retry=<_MethodDefault._DEFAULT_VALUE: <object object>>, timeout=<_MethodDefault._DEFAULT_VALUE: <object object>>, metadata=None)

Deletes an existing group.

.. rubric:: Example

from google.cloud import monitoring_v3

client = monitoring_v3.GroupServiceClient()

name = client.group_path('[PROJECT]', '[GROUP]')

client.delete_group(name)

Parameters
Name	Description
name	str The group to delete. The format is "projects/{project_id_or_number}/groups/{group_id}".
recursive	bool If this field is true, then the request means to delete a group with all its descendants. Otherwise, the request means to delete a group only when it has no descendants. The default value is false.
retry	Optional[google.api_core.retry.Retry] A retry object used to retry requests. If None is specified, requests will be retried using a default configuration.
timeout	Optional[float] The amount of time, in seconds, to wait for the request to complete. Note that if retry is specified, the timeout applies to each individual attempt.
metadata	Optional[Sequence[Tuple[str, str]]] Additional metadata that is provided to the method.

Exceptions
Type	Description
google.api_core.exceptions.GoogleAPICallError	If the request failed for any reason.
google.api_core.exceptions.RetryError	If the request failed due to a retryable error and retry attempts failed.
