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

NrdbQuery

Data source:

Each time a query is executed on behalf of a user in your account an NrdbQuery event is published. Events contain the full query string, information about when and where it originated, and how it performed.

Attribute nameDefinitionData types
status
enum

Indicates the successful or unsuccessful execution of the query. Available values:

  • successful: Query executed successfully.
  • error: Query failed to execute due to an error.
  • cancelled: Query execution stopped before fully completed.
  • limited - congestion: Query dropped due to internal New Relic system congestion.
  • limited - inspected count: Query dropped due to your account being over its inspected count resource limits.
  • limited - memory estimation: Query dropped as its estimated memory consumption exceeded system constraints. Reducing the complexity of this query could increase the probability of successful execution.
  • limited: Query dropped, no reason available.
  • timedout: Query timed out before execution completed and did not return results. Try reducing the scope of the query by changing the time window or reducing the number of EventTypes in the FROM clause.
