QueryTagBuilder (kairosclient 3.1.1 API)

java.lang.Object
- org.kairosdb.client.builder.AbstractQueryBuilder<QueryTagBuilder>
- - org.kairosdb.client.builder.QueryTagBuilder

```
public class QueryTagBuilder
extends AbstractQueryBuilder<QueryTagBuilder>
```
Builder used to create the JSON to query tags from KairosDB.

This is similar to a regular query but just returns the tags (no data points) for the range specified. The time range can be specified as absolute or relative. Absolute times are a given point in time. Relative times are relative to now. The end time is not required and defaults to now.

For example, if you specify a relative start time of 30 minutes, all matching data points for the last 30 minutes will be returned. If you specify a relative start time of 30 minutes and a relative end time of 10 minutes, then all matching data points that occurred between the last 30 minutes up to and including the last 10 minutes are returned.
