GetTrafficByProtocol

Update time: 2026-07-13 15:49:30

This API is used to query traffic data for multiple domains under a specified transmission protocol, covering data from all edge nodes. Users must specify parameters such as domain, start and end time, and transmission protocol, and can select data granularity and grouping dimensions. By default, the query returns HTTPS protocol traffic data, with output showing traffic values for each domain at different time points. This interface is suitable for scenarios requiring the query and analysis of multi-domain traffic across various transmission protocols.
