### Overview

El endpoint de métricas te permite publicar datos de cronologías que pueden representarse mediante gráficos en los dashboards de Datadog.
El tamaño de carga útil máximo es de 500 kilobytes (512 000 bytes). Si la carga útil se comprime, debe ocupar menos de 5 megabytes (5 242 880 bytes) una vez descomprimida.

Si vas a enviar métricas directamente a la API de Datadog sin usar DogStatsD, ten en cuenta estos datos:

- Marca de tiempo: 64 bits
- Valor: 64 bits
- Nombres de métrica: 20 bytes
- Cronología: 50 bytes
- Carga útil total: 100 bytes aproximadamente

El nombre del host se incluye entre los recursos del campo “Recursos”.

### Overview

El endpoint de métricas te permite publicar datos de series temporales que pueden representarse gráficamente en dashboards de Datadog.
El tamaño máximo de la carga útil es de 3,2 megabytes (3200000 bytes). Las cargas útiles comprimidas deben tener un tamaño descomprimido inferior a 62 megabytes (62914560 bytes).

Si envías métricas directamente a la API Datadog sin utilizar DogStatsD, espera:

- 64 bits para la marca de tiempo
- 64 bits para el valor
- 40 bytes para los nombres de métrica
- 50 bytes para las series temporales
- La carga útil completa es de aproximadamente 100 bytes. Sin embargo, con la API DogStatsD
  se aplica una compresión, lo que reduce el tamaño de la carga útil.

### Arguments

#### Header Parameters

| Field            | Type | Description                                                                                              |
| ---------------- | ---- | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| Content-Encoding | enum | HTTP header used to compress the media-type. Allowed enum values: `deflate`, `gzip`. Default: `deflate`. |
