/v1/{name}/location/{location}/prometheus/api/v1/label/{label}/values
How automating Google Cloud Monitoring works
- Describe the outcome. Say what you want to happen, in your own words. No node graphs, no field mapping.
- Approve the contract. HumDay writes down exactly what it will do, what it will touch, and what it will never do. You approve it before anything is built.
- See it proven. The program runs and shows you the result before it is allowed near your live Google Cloud Monitoring account.
- Grant access, then go live. You approve the specific Google Cloud Monitoring operations it may use — and only those.

Questions about Google Cloud Monitoring automation
- Can HumDay connect to Google Cloud Monitoring?
- Yes. HumDay reads Google Cloud Monitoring's own published API description and derives the operations from it, so there is no hand-built connector to wait for. 15 operations are documented.
- Do I need to write code to automate Google Cloud Monitoring?
- No. You describe the outcome you want in plain words. HumDay agrees a contract with you, writes the program, and shows you a test run before anything touches your Google Cloud Monitoring account.
- What can HumDay do in Google Cloud Monitoring?
- 9 of the 15 documented operations change something in Google Cloud Monitoring, and 6 read from it. HumDay only ever uses the specific operations your approved contract needs.
- Is my Google Cloud Monitoring account safe?
- Your credentials are stored encrypted and are never shown in chat, code, or logs. Every run is limited to the operations you explicitly approved, and anything that writes to Google Cloud Monitoring is held behind that approval.
Where this came from
The operations above are read from a published API description for Google Cloud Monitoring at monitoring.googleapis.com/$discovery/rest?version=v1. Descriptions are the provider’s own words, not ours. Last published 2023-04-21.
