The following shows how to generate the hits-by-time
report using either the Reporting API's Generate a report POST operation or the Get a cacheable report GET operation. Details about each report's supported products, metrics, filters, and available data intervals are also available dynamically by running the API's Get a report type operation, also shown below. See also other available reports.
Report definition
Provides traffic data (edge and origin hits) over time.
This report allows you to configure the aggregation interval for each data record. Available interval
values are: MONTH
, WEEK
, DAY
, HOUR
, FIVE_MINUTES
.
If you use China CDN and want to monitor the offload metrics, use the new delivery/traffic/current report in the API v2.
Business object: cpcode
