OCI Monitoring: implementing Custom Metrics Not Showing in Console for Python SDK
I'm relatively new to this, so bear with me. I've looked through the documentation and I'm still confused about I'm working on a personal project and After trying multiple solutions online, I still can't figure this out... I'm attempting to push custom metrics to Oracle Cloud Infrastructure (OCI) Monitoring service using the Python SDK. I have followed the documentation but I am not seeing the metrics reflected in the OCI console. I am using version 2.39.0 of the `oci` Python SDK. Here's the code snippet I'm using to create and push the custom metric: ```python import oci import time config = oci.config.from_file() # Load config from ~/.oci/config monitoring_client = oci.monitoring.MonitoringClient(config) namespace = 'my_namespace' metric_name = 'my_custom_metric' # Create a custom metric custom_metric = { 'namespace': namespace, 'metricName': metric_name, 'dimensions': {'resourceId': 'my_resource_id'}, 'value': 100, 'timestamp': int(time.time()), 'unit': 'Count' } # Push the custom metric try: response = monitoring_client.put_metrics([custom_metric]) print('Metric pushed:', response) except oci.exceptions.ServiceError as e: print('behavior pushing metric:', e) ``` I have verified that the `namespace` and `resourceId` values are correct. I also checked the permissions and ensured that my API key has the necessary access to write metrics. However, after running this code, I don't see the metrics showing up in the Monitoring section of the OCI console. Additionally, I am not receiving any errors in the output, which makes this even more puzzling. Is there a specific delay in metric propagation, or could there be an scenario with how I'm packaging the metric data? If anyone has encountered this scenario or has suggestions on best practices for pushing custom metrics to OCI, I would greatly appreciate your insights. This is part of a larger API I'm building. What am I doing wrong? I'm working on a application that needs to handle this. Am I missing something obvious? For reference, this is a production web app. What's the correct way to implement this? I'm working in a CentOS environment. Has anyone dealt with something similar?
