[REQUIRED]
The AWS service for which Performance Insights will return metrics. The only valid value for ServiceType is: RDS
[REQUIRED]
An immutable, AWS Region-unique identifier for a data source. Performance Insights gathers metrics from this data source.
To use an Amazon RDS instance as a data source, you specify its DbiResourceId value - for example: db-FAIHNTYBKTGAUSUZQYPDS2GW4A
[REQUIRED]
The date and time specifying the beginning of the requested time series data. You can't specify a StartTime that's earlier than 7 days ago. The value specified is inclusive - data points equal to or greater than StartTime will be returned.
The value for StartTime must be earlier than the value for EndTime .
[REQUIRED]
The date and time specifying the end of the requested time series data. The value specified is exclusive - data points less than (but not equal to) EndTime will be returned.
The value for EndTime must be later than the value for StartTime .
[REQUIRED]
The name of a Performance Insights metric to be measured.
Valid values for Metric are:
The granularity, in seconds, of the data points returned from Performance Insights. A period can be as short as one second, or as long as one day (86400 seconds). Valid values are:
If you don't specify PeriodInSeconds , then Performance Insights will choose a value for you, with a goal of returning roughly 100-200 data points in the response.
[REQUIRED]
A specification for how to aggregate the data points from a query result. You must specify a valid dimension group. Performance Insights will return all of the dimensions within that group, unless you provide the names of specific dimensions within that group. You can also request that Performance Insights return a limited number of values for a dimension.
The name of the dimension group. Valid values are:
A list of specific dimensions from a dimension group. If this parameter is not present, then it signifies that all of the dimensions in the group were requested, or are present in the response.
Valid values for elements in the Dimensions array are:
The maximum number of items to fetch for this dimension group.
For each dimension specified in GroupBy , specify a secondary dimension to further subdivide the partition keys in the response.
The name of the dimension group. Valid values are:
A list of specific dimensions from a dimension group. If this parameter is not present, then it signifies that all of the dimensions in the group were requested, or are present in the response.
Valid values for elements in the Dimensions array are:
The maximum number of items to fetch for this dimension group.
One or more filters to apply in the request. Restrictions:

(dict) --
AlignedStartTime (datetime) --
The start time for the returned dimension keys, after alignment to a granular boundary (as specified by PeriodInSeconds ). AlignedStartTime will be less than or equal to the value of the user-specified StartTime .
AlignedEndTime (datetime) --
The end time for the returned dimension keys, after alignment to a granular boundary (as specified by PeriodInSeconds ). AlignedEndTime will be greater than or equal to the value of the user-specified Endtime .
PartitionKeys (list) --
If PartitionBy was present in the request, PartitionKeys contains the breakdown of dimension keys by the specified partitions.
(dict) --
If PartitionBy was specified in a DescribeDimensionKeys request, the dimensions are returned in an array. Each element in the array specifies one dimension.
Dimensions (dict) --
A dimension map that contains the dimension(s) for this partition.
Keys (list) --
The dimension keys that were requested.
(dict) --
An array of descriptions and aggregated values for each dimension within a dimension group.
Dimensions (dict) --
A map of name-value pairs for the dimensions in the group.
Total (float) --
The aggregated metric value for the dimension(s), over the requested time range.
Partitions (list) --
If PartitionBy was specified, PartitionKeys contains the dimensions that were.
NextToken (string) --
An optional pagination token provided by a previous request. If this parameter is specified, the response includes only records beyond the token, up to the value specified by MaxRecords .

[REQUIRED]
An array of one or more queries to perform. Each query must specify a Performance Insights metric, and can optionally specify aggregation and filtering criteria.
A single query to be processed. You must provide the metric to query. If no other parameters are specified, Performance Insights returns all of the data points for that metric. You can optionally request that the data points be aggregated by dimension group ( GroupBy ), and return only those data points that match your criteria (Filter ).
