New Relic data dictionary

This data dictionary defines some of our default-reported data stored in NRDB and queryable via NRQL. This includes events like Transaction, MobileRequest, and BrowserInteraction, and our Metric, Log, and Span data types. These definitions are also available from our query builder UI by mousing over applicable data type and attribute names.

This dictionary doesn't contain:

  • Data from our infrastructure integrations (for that, see docs for a specific integration)
  • Custom data
  • Detailed integration-specific attributes for Metric data

NrDailyUsage

Once per day, New Relic products generate a NrDailyUsage event. Use the productLine attribute to identify and filter for the specific product's usage.

Attribute nameDefinitionData types
cloudInstanceId
ID

ID uniquely identifying the cloud host instance (example: an AWS EC2 instance) for which this usage is reported.

(For example, for an AWS EC2 instance, the value would look like i-1234abcd5678ef900.) This is used to uniquely identify the host if the apmComputeUnitRule is cloud_provider_data. This will not be present if no cloud provider was detected by the agent. Agents with these versions will detect cloud provider data for AWS: Go: 1.11 or higher Java: 3.18.0 or higher .NET: 5.1.72.0 or higher Node.js: 1.21.0 or higher PHP: 5.5.0 or higher Python: 2.54.0.41 or higher Ruby: 3.12.1.298 or higher cloudInstanceId is one of three possible providers for the hostId value.
