Working with Honeycomb SLOs, burn alerts, and SLO history
# SLO Commands Dependency chain: derived column (SLI) → SLO → burn alert. All commands require `--dataset`. `target_per_million`: 99.9% = 999000, 99% = 990000, 95% = 950000. ## SLO CRUD - `slo create --name --sli-alias --target --time-period [--description]` or `-f` (mutually exclusive) - `slo update <id> --name/--description/--target/--time-period` (flag-based, read-modify-write) or `-f` (mutually exclusive) - `slo get <id>` / `slo get <id> --detailed` (Enterprise-only) - `slo list` / `slo delete <id> --yes` Create body: `{"name":"...","sli":{"alias":"<derived-column-alias>"},"time_period_days":30,"target_per_million":999000}` ## Burn Alerts Create/update require `recipients` (non-empty array of `{"id":"..."}`) and `slo` as `{"id":"..."}` (nested, not flat `slo_id`). Exhaustion time: `{"alert_type":"exhaustion_time","exhaustion_minutes":240,"slo":{"id":"..."},"recipients":[{"id":"..."}]}` Budget rate: `{"alert_type":"budget_rate","budget_rate_window_minutes":60,"budget_rate_decrease_threshold_per_million":50000,"slo":{"id":"..."},"recipients":[{"id":"..."}]}` `burn-alert create` also takes flags: `--slo-id --alert-type --recipient` plus `--exhaustion-minutes` or `--budget-rate-window-minutes --budget-rate-threshold`. `burn-alert update` takes the same value flags. ## SLO History `slo history --slo-id <id> --start-time <unix> --end-time <unix>` — `--slo-id` is repeatable. Response is a map keyed by SLO ID.
