This document describes how to use the simplified Compute Engine API quota metrics in your Cloud Monitoring dashboards, alerting policies, and queries.

Simplified API quota metrics

To improve the discoverability and manageability of Compute Engine API quota, Google Cloud has reduced the number of quota metrics by consolidating metrics into fewer quota groups. These simplified quota metrics also offer higher limits for each quota group.

The following table lists all simplified API quota metrics that consolidate the existing API quota metrics:

Existing API quota metrics Simplified API quota metric compute.googleapis.com/list_requests Read requests per minute
compute.googleapis.com/global_reads compute.googleapis.com/read_requests compute.googleapis.com/heavy_weight_read_requests compute.googleapis.com/default
Existing quota metric for methods that list Compute Engine resources. compute.googleapis.com/get_macsec_config_requests compute.googleapis.com/license_verification_requests compute.googleapis.com/default

To monitor Compute Engine API usage against the simplified API metrics, add filters for these metrics in your Cloud Monitoring dashboards, alerts, and queries.

Use the simplified metrics in Cloud Monitoring dashboards

To use a simplified quota metric in the dashboards, do the following:

  1. In the Google Cloud console, go to Monitoring:

    Go to Monitoring

  2. In the navigation pane, select Dashboards.

  3. Select the dashboard that you want to edit to use a simplified metric.

  4. Click Edit dashboard and add a widget.

  5. Add a filter that corresponds to the metric that you want to monitor:

    1. In the Filter field, select quota_metric.
    2. In the Comparator field, select =.
    3. In the Value field, specify the metric name for the API quota. For example, the filter quota_metric = compute.googleapis.com/global_reads uses a regular expression to match all time-series data that uses the quota metric compute.googleapis.com/global_reads.

  6. To apply your changes to the dashboard, in the toolbar, click Apply.

Use the simplified API quota metrics in Cloud Monitoring alerting policies

To create an alerting policy to monitor the usage of a simplified API quota metric, do the following:

  1. In the Google Cloud console, go to Monitoring:

    Go to Monitoring

  2. In the navigation pane, select Alerting. The Alerting page displays panes that list summary information, incidents, and alerting policies.

  3. Click Create policy to add an alerting policy.

  4. Select a filter that corresponds to the metric that you want to monitor:

    1. In the Filter field, select quota_metric.
    2. In the Comparator field, select =.
    3. In the Value field, specify the metric name for the simplified quota. For example, the filter quota_metric = compute.googleapis.com/global_reads uses a regular expression to match all time-series data that uses the quota metric compute.googleapis.com/global_reads.
    4. Click Done to save changes in the filter.

  5. Click Save policy.

You can also use the Google Cloud Terraform Provider to create alerting policies in your Google Cloud project. For more information, see Create alerting policies with Terraform.

Use simplified quota metrics in Cloud Monitoring queries

To use the simplified quota metric in a PromQL-based alerting policy or a chart in a dashboard, use the Query Editor and edit the query filter. See Use the code editor for PromQL. Open the Query Editor and add the filter as shown in the following example:

   sum(rate(serviceruntime_googleapis_com:quota_rate_net_usage{monitored_resource="consumer_quota", \
   quota_metric=~"compute.googleapis.com/global_reads"}[${__interval}]))
