timeSeriesChangesToGrid

Introduced in: v25.6

Aggregate function that takes time series data as pairs of timestamps and values and calculates PromQL-like changes from this data on a regular time grid described by start timestamp, end timestamp and step. For each point on the grid the samples for calculating changes are considered within the specified time window.

Note

This function is experimental, enable it by setting allow_experimental_ts_to_grid_aggregate_function=true.

Syntax

timeSeriesChangesToGrid(start_timestamp, end_timestamp, grid_step, staleness)(timestamp, value)

Parameters

start_timestamp — Specifies start of the grid. - end_timestamp — Specifies end of the grid. - grid_step — Specifies step of the grid in seconds. - staleness — Specifies the maximum "staleness" in seconds of the considered samples.

Arguments

timestamp — Timestamp of the sample. Can be individual values or arrays. - value — Value of the time series corresponding to the timestamp. Can be individual values or arrays.

Returned value

changes values on the specified grid as an Array(Nullable(Float64)). The returned array contains one value for each time grid point. The value is NULL if there are no samples within the window to calculate the changes value for a particular grid point.

Examples

Calculate changes values on the grid [90, 105, 120, 135, 150, 165, 180, 195, 210, 225]
