**To get metric data for an instance**

The following ``get-instance-metric-data`` example returns the average percent of ``CPUUtilization`` every ``7200`` seconds (2 hours) between ``1571342400`` and ``1571428800`` for instance ``MEAN-1``.

We recommend that you use a unix time converter to identify the start and end times. ::

    aws lightsail get-instance-metric-data \
        --instance-name MEAN-1 \
        --metric-name CPUUtilization \
        --period 7200 \
        --start-time 1571342400 \
        --end-time 1571428800 \
        --unit Percent \
        --statistics Average

Output::
