Method Details

create(name, body, x__xgafv=None)
Creates a new alerting policy.

Args:
  name: string, The project in which to create the alerting policy. The format is projects/[PROJECT_ID].Note that this field names the parent container in which the alerting policy will be written, not the name of the created policy. The alerting policy that is returned will have a name that contains a normalized representation of this name as a prefix but adds a suffix of the form /alertPolicies/[POLICY_ID], identifying the policy in the container. (required)
  body: object, The request body. (required)
    The object takes the form of:

The groupByFields determine how the time series are partitioned into subsets prior to applying the aggregation function. Each subset contains time series that have the same value for each of the grouping fields. Each individual time series is a member of exactly one subset. The crossSeriesReducer is applied to each subset of time series. It is not possible to reduce across different resource types, so this field implicitly contains resource.type. Fields not specified in groupByFields are aggregated away. If groupByFields is not specified and all the time series have the same resource type, then the time series are aggregated into a single output time series. If crossSeriesReducer is not defined, this field is ignored.

list(name, orderBy=None, pageSize=None, pageToken=None, x__xgafv=None, filter=None)
Lists the existing alerting policies for the project.

Args:
  name: string, The project whose alert policies are to be listed. The format is
projects/[PROJECT_ID]
Note that this field names the parent container in which the alerting policies to be listed are stored. To retrieve a single alerting policy by name, use the GetAlertPolicy operation, instead. (required)
  orderBy: string, A comma-separated list of fields by which to sort the result. Supports the same set of field references as the filter field. Entries can be prefixed with a minus sign to sort by the field in descending order.For more details, see sorting and filtering.
  pageSize: integer, The maximum number of results to return in a single response.
  pageToken: string, If this field is not empty then it must contain the nextPageToken value returned by a previous call to this method. Using this field causes the method to return more results from the previous method call.
  x__xgafv: string, V1 error format.
    Allowed values
      1 - v1 error format
      2 - v2 error format
  filter: string, If provided, this field specifies the criteria that must be met by alert policies to be included in the response.For more details, see sorting and filtering.

Fields not listed retain their previous value.Examples of valid field masks include display_name, documentation, documentation.content, documentation.mime_type, user_labels, user_label.nameofkey, enabled, conditions, combiner, etc.If this field is empty, then the supplied alerting policy replaces the existing policy. It is the same as deleting the existing policy and adding the supplied policy, except for the following:
The new policy will have the same [ALERT_POLICY_ID] as the former policy. This gives you continuity with the former policy in your notifications and incidents.
Conditions in the new policy will keep their former [CONDITION_ID] if the supplied condition includes the name field with that [CONDITION_ID]. If the supplied condition omits the name field, then a new [CONDITION_ID] is created.

When choosing a duration, it is useful to keep in mind the frequency of the underlying time series data (which may also be affected by any alignments specified in the aggregations field); a good duration is long enough so that a single outlier does not generate spurious alerts, but short enough that unhealthy states are detected and alerted on quickly.

Stackdriver Monitoring creates the condition identifiers and includes them in the new policy.When calling the alertPolicies.update method to update a policy, including a condition name causes the existing condition to be updated. Conditions without names are added to the updated policy. Existing conditions are deleted if they are not updated.Best practice is to preserve [CONDITION_ID] if you make only small changes, such as those to condition thresholds, durations, or trigger values. Otherwise, treat the change as a new condition and let the existing condition be deleted.

The crossSeriesReducer is applied to each subset of time series. It is not possible to reduce across different resource types, so this field implicitly contains resource.type. Fields not specified in groupByFields are aggregated away. If groupByFields is not specified and all the time series have the same resource type, then the time series are aggregated into a single output time series. If crossSeriesReducer is not defined, this field is ignored.
