Log Metrics Api Ingest - Delta between TimeSeries

[mcates-marathon]

Hi,

We're ingesting data for external integrations using the Environment V2 logs ingest API.  There is an attribute value that's incremented every second that our Source System is running.  With a 1 minute post interval at 60 seconds, we would expect to see the value go from { custom.uptime = 500000 } to { custom.uptime = 500060 }.   Starting values can be different for each entity.

For Log Metrics, is there a way to configure a metric that would use the difference between the 'custom.uptime' value between Time Series? Our dashboard/alert would contain something split by entities, like (custom.uptime[t2] - custom.uptime[t1] / log.timestamp[t2] - log.timestamp[t1]) < 1.

Thank you

Since this would be making a formula to produce the value you are looking for you might need to leverage a custom metric that will calculate the data as you desire, then once its formulated you can then use that value in a tile and build an alert off of it as well via the metric events.
