create method

Future<MetricDescriptor> create(
  1. MetricDescriptor request,
  2. String name, {
  3. String? $fields,
})

Creates a new metric descriptor.

The creation is executed asynchronously. User-created metric descriptors define custom metrics (https://cloud.google.com/monitoring/custom-metrics). The metric descriptor is updated if it already exists, except that metric labels are never removed.

request - The metadata request object.

Request parameters:

name - Required. The project (https://cloud.google.com/monitoring/api/v3#project_name) on which to execute the request. The format is: 4 projects/PROJECT_ID_OR_NUMBER Value must have pattern ^projects/\[^/\]+$.

$fields - Selector specifying which fields to include in a partial response.

Completes with a MetricDescriptor.

Completes with a commons.ApiRequestError if the API endpoint returned an error.

If the used http.Client completes with an error when making a REST call, this method will complete with the same error.

Implementation

async.Future<MetricDescriptor> create(
  MetricDescriptor request,
  core.String name, {
  core.String? $fields,
}) async {
  final body_ = convert.json.encode(request);
  final queryParams_ = <core.String, core.List<core.String>>{
    if ($fields != null) 'fields': [$fields],
  };

  final url_ = 'v3/' + core.Uri.encodeFull('$name') + '/metricDescriptors';

  final response_ = await _requester.request(
    url_,
    'POST',
    body: body_,
    queryParams: queryParams_,
  );
  return MetricDescriptor.fromJson(
      response_ as core.Map<core.String, core.dynamic>);
}
