IoT Device Defender Metrics

Hi Patrick,

The generated metrics in 'additionalMetricstoRetain' in Device Defender are not accessible today via API.

You can create a security profile with only additional metrics to retain and observe metric trending over time per device in the AWS IoT console meanwhile.

If you need the metrics for other visualization/dashboarding purpose outside of the console, you will need to implement it with custom functions.

Hope this helps clarify. Let me know if you have any other questions.

Hi Patrick, AWS IoT Device Defender recently launched the ListMetricValues API. You can use this API to fetch the metrics that Device Defender collects and stores. Here is the documentation of the API: https://docs.aws.amazon.com/iot/latest/apireference/API_ListMetricValues.html
