[SOLVED] mavg wavefront query timeout when called through the REST api

mavg wavefront query timeout when called through the REST api

I am running following wavefront query to get SINGLE VALUE which is Average over the given time range for which the query is being called. This works fine in the wavefront dashboard but it times out when called through the Wavefront REST API. Can this query be optimized so that it does not timeout or is there an issue running it through REST api:

mavg(1vw, avg(ts(telegraf.response.times.99.percentile , accountid="123" and env="prod" and myvar!="true”)))

I tried with following but does not help

mavg(1vw, avg(align(900s, mean, ts(telegraf.response.times.99.percentile , accountid=“123” and env=“prod” and myvar!=“true”))))

Solution

I found some special character in place of double quotes that came in while copy-pasting the query. It worked fine when I typed the whole query manually.
