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

NrAiSignal

Data source:

NrAiSignal shows details from every NRQL alert condition and every signal on your account, for every aggregation window that passes. This data is posted immediately after each aggregation window is aggregated and evaluated, so it will show you exactly what our alerts are seeing.
