Overview
The Cloud Monitoring output will stream custom Google Cloud metrics to a Cloud project.
Review Sample Configuration
The following sample configuration displays an output without the name of the organization-level integration:
- name: my-cloudmonitoring

key: '{{ Env "CLOUDMONITORING_KEY" }}'
features: metric
Review Parameters
Review the following parameters that you can configure in the Edge Delta App.

For outputs, this name will be used to map this destination to a workflow.
Review the following parameter:
name: my-cloudmonitoring
integration_name
Optional
This parameter refers to the organization-level integration created in the Integrations page.
If you need to add multiple instances of the same integration into the config, then you can add a custom name to each instance via the name parameter. In this situation, the name should be used to refer to the specific instance of the destination in the workflows.
Review the following parameter:
integration_name: orgs-gcp-cm
type
Required
Enter cloudmonitoring.
Review the following parameter:
type: cloudmonitoring

Review the following example:
features: metric
buffer_ttl
Optional
Enter a length of time to retry failed streaming data.
After this length of time is reached, the failed streaming data will no longer be tried.
Review the following example:
buffer_ttl: 2h
buffer_path
Optional
Enter a folder path to temporarily store failed streaming data.
The failed streaming data will be retried until the data reaches its destinations or until the Buffer TTL value is reached.
If you enter a path that does not exist, then the agent will create directories, as needed.
Review the following example:
buffer_path: /var/log/edgedelta/pushbuffer/
buffer_max_bytesize
Optional
Enter the maximum size of failed streaming data that you want to retry.
If the failed streaming data is larger than this size, then the failed streaming data will not be retried.
Review the following example:
buffer_max_bytesize: 100MB
