Please make video on " How to automate cloudwatch dashboard creation?

[@rmg6283]

Is it possible to pull this dashboard data into an enterprise application UI page ..say using iFrame?

[@narutokunn]

At 7:02, what's the difference between the 2 period selectors.. first one above the graph and the other one(s) for individual metric?

[@mbesida]

are those metrics standard aws metrics to a specific resource? I mean, if I want my app/lambda to have some custom business metrics, will they be shown in the selection of metrics?

[@BeABetterDev]

Hi Maksym,
They would be showed under a custom namespace that you define.
Hope this helps.

[@hritikbhamare2789]
