Request throughput Data explorer

[SOBE]

Hello all,

i'm having an issue displaying the throughput of key requests in a Dashboard using data explorer

i'm using the builtin request count metric but when i set the rate i'm having the same value as you can see in the following screenshot : 

i tried every possible combination but still the result is not correct and i'm also having different values as i change the time frame.

Did anyone have this issue before ? what am i missing exactly here ?

Thanks

@SOBE Since your visualization is table and this implies folding, what you have as your fold aggregation? This is not on your screenshot. 

The aggregation in series are for a different aggregation (how values for each data point are calculated), where SUM is OK. But to count total number of requests (aggregate datapoints into a single value), you need your fold aggregation to be set to SUM. Most likely you have AVG or Auto set currently.

I've set the fold to sum but still the same result  :

Good, in your case you have exactly 2 hours selected. This implies resolution of 120 metric points. Try to select a different interval (e.g. 24 hours):

Alright i have different results when i select 24 hours but i still don't get it.

In this case, here are the results i got : 

Total requests : 172K

Throughtput : 17.2K / Minute

Question 1 : How does Dynatrace calculate it ? because if i do the simple math i don't have the same result : 

24 hours = 1440 minutes

172000/1440 = 120 requests / minute and thats very far from the result i got.

Question 2 : Why don't i have different result when i'm on a smaller timeframe like Last 2 hours ?

i must be missing something or this is really confusing
