Analytics

Cloudflare measures the following metrics for every connection.

Metric Name Example Unit
count Count of total events 1000 Count
bytesIngress Sum of ingress bytes 1000 Sum
bytesEgress Sum of egress bytes 1000 Sum
durationAvg Average connection duration 1.0 Time in milliseconds
durationMedian Median connection duration 1.0 Time in milliseconds
duration90th 90th percentile connection duration 1.0 Time in milliseconds
duration99th 99th percentile connection duration 1.0 Time in milliseconds

​​ Additional dimensions

You can divide your analytics further by the following dimensions.

Dimension Name Example
event Connection Event connect, progress, disconnect, originError, clientFiltered
appID Application ID 40d67c87c6cd4b889a4fd57805225e85
coloName Colo Name SFO
ipVersion IP version used by the client 4, 6

​​ Operators for filtering

Use the operators below to filter data.

Operator Name URL Encoded
== Equals %3D%3D
!= Does not equal !%3D
> Greater Than %3E
< Less Than %3C
>= Greater than or equal to %3E%3D
<= Less than or equal to %3C%3D

Combine filters using OR and AND boolean logic:

  • AND takes precedence over OR in all expressions.

  • The OR operator is defined using a comma , or the OR keyword surrounded by whitespace.

  • The AND operator is defined using a semicolon ; or the AND keyword surrounded by whitespace.

​​ Analytics request structure


/api/v4/zones/{zone_id}/spectrum/analytics/events/summary?metrics=METRICS&dimensions=DIMENSIONS&filters=FILTERS&since=FROM_TS&sort=SORT&until=TO_TS&limit=LIMIT
/api/v4/zones/{zone_id}/spectrum/analytics/events/bytime?metrics=METRICS&dimensions=DIMENSIONS&filters=FILTERS&since=FROM_TS&sort=SORT&until=TO_TS&limit=LIMIT
  • METRICS is one or more metrics (such as count) to compute
  • DIMENSIONS can be used to break down the data by given attributes
  • FILTERS used to filter rows by one or more dimensions (see Filters section below)
  • SORT is the sort order for the result set; sort fields must be included in METRICS or DIMENSIONS
  • TO_TS is that end of time interval to query, defaults to current time
  • FROM_TS is that start of time interval to query, defaults to TO_TS - 6 hours
  • STEP is used to select time series resolution when using endpoint:
  • auto or omitted - selects time step most appropriate to time interval
    • year
    • quarter
    • month
    • week
    • day
    • hour
