Nobl9 has difficulties when integrating Instana's Application APIs.

1) On the Analytics page, the API query button does not generate a complete JSON blob that can be used to query Instana to get the same result as shown on the UI.

- No group by option in the generated JSON.
- No Hidden Calls filtering in the JSON. For example, check or uncheck Show Synthetic calls and Show Internal calls do not change the generated JSON.

2) On the Analytics page, available metrics are Calls, Erroneous Calls, Erroneous Calls Rate and Latency. Is there a way to get the exhaustive list of available metrics? Or are there only 4 metrics as shown on the UI?

Side note: Nobl9 prefers how API JSON blobs are generated on the Analyze Infrastructure page
