Contents
1 Overview
Paths are used extensively in Veloopti to enable for the grouping of similar things. The primary use of paths for you are: metric; event and API paths.
2 Path format
Paths are
- Characters from 'a-z';
- Numbers from '0-9'; and
- Periods '.'
Note:Characters that are entered into a path as uppercase are automatically converted to lowercase
3 Metric paths
Each metric that is collected and graphed in Veloopti is unique because of its metric path.
3.1 How metric paths are created
4 Event paths
Each event type that is displayed in Veloopti is unique because of its metric path.
4.1 How event paths are created
5 API paths
The API is able to inject both metrics and events into Veloopti.
5.1 How API paths are created
When the metrics and events are sent through the API the path is manually written to it using the API. Anything sent without a valid path will be rejected by Veloopti and dismissed. All paths that are created using the api are prefixed with 'api'.
