DevOps Research and Assessment (DORA) key metrics API (ULTIMATE)

  • Introduced in GitLab 13.10.
  • The legacy key/value pair { "<date>" => "<value>" } was removed from the payload in GitLab 14.0. time_to_restore_service metric was introduced in GitLab 14.9.

All methods require at least the Reporter role.
