get_dimension_key_details#

PI.Client.get_dimension_key_details(**kwargs)#

Get the attributes of the specified dimension group for a DB instance or data source. For example, if you specify a SQL ID, GetDimensionKeyDetails retrieves the full text of the dimension db.sql.statement associated with this ID. This operation is useful because GetResourceMetrics and DescribeDimensionKeys don’t support retrieval of large SQL statement text.

response = client.get_dimension_key_details(
    ServiceType='RDS'|'DOCDB',
    Identifier='string',
    Group='string',
    GroupIdentifier='string',
    RequestedDimensions=[
        'string',
    ]
)
Parameters:

  • ServiceType (string) –

    [REQUIRED]

    The Amazon Web Services service for which Performance Insights returns data. The only valid value is RDS.

  • Identifier (string) –

    [REQUIRED]

    The ID for a data source from which to gather dimension data. This ID must be immutable and unique within an Amazon Web Services Region. When a DB instance is the data source, specify its DbiResourceId value. For example, specify db-ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTU1VW2X.

  • Group (string) –

    [REQUIRED]

    The name of the dimension group. Performance Insights searches the specified group for the dimension group ID. The following group name values are valid:

    • db.query (Amazon DocumentDB only)

    • db.sql (Amazon RDS and Aurora only)

  • GroupIdentifier (string) –

    [REQUIRED]

    The ID of the dimension group from which to retrieve dimension details. For dimension group db.sql, the group ID is db.sql.id. The following group ID values are valid:

    • db.sql.id for dimension group db.sql (Aurora and RDS only)

    • db.query.id for dimension group db.query (DocumentDB only)

  • RequestedDimensions (list) –

    A list of dimensions to retrieve the detail data for within the given dimension group. If you don’t specify this parameter, Performance Insights returns all dimension data within the specified dimension group. Specify dimension names for the following dimension groups:

    • db.sql - Specify either the full dimension name db.sql.statement or the short dimension name statement (Aurora and RDS only).

    • db.query - Specify either the full dimension name db.query.statement or the short dimension name statement (DocumentDB only).

    • (string) –

Return type:

Response Structure

  • (dict) –

    • Dimensions (list) –

      The details for the requested dimensions.

      • (dict) –

        An object that describes the details for a specified dimension.

        • Value (string) –

          The value of the dimension detail data. Depending on the return status, this value is either the full or truncated SQL query for the following dimensions:

          • db.query.statement (Amazon DocumentDB)

          • db.sql.statement (Amazon RDS and Aurora)

        • Dimension (string) –

          The full name of the dimension. The full name includes the group name and key name. The following values are valid:

          • db.query.statement (Amazon DocumentDB)

          • db.sql.statement (Amazon RDS and Aurora)

        • Status (string) –

          The status of the dimension detail data. Possible values include the following:

          • AVAILABLE - The dimension detail data is ready to be retrieved.

          • PROCESSING - The dimension detail data isn’t ready to be retrieved because more processing time is required. If the requested detail data has the status PROCESSING, Performance Insights returns the truncated query.

          • UNAVAILABLE - The dimension detail data could not be collected successfully.
