A collection of data points that describes the time-varying values of
a metric. A time series is identified by a combination of a fully-
specified monitored resource and a fully-specified metric. This type
is used for both listing and creating time series.
.. attribute:: metric
The associated metric. A fully-specified metric used to
identify the time series.
Output only. The associated monitored resource metadata. When
reading a a timeseries, this field will include metadata
labels that are explicitly named in the reduction. When
creating a timeseries, this field is ignored.
The value type of the time series. When listing time series,
this value type might be different from the value type of the
associated metric if this time series is an alignment or
reduction of other time series. When creating a time series,
this field is optional. If present, it must be the same as the
type of the data in the points field.
