Input metrics

The inputMetric object include metrics that are calculated from data included in the input dataset. This can be useful for troubleshooting unexpected results by making sure that the inputs, for instance, number of jobs, matches the number of jobs that were supposed to be included in the input dataset.

{
  "inputMetrics": {
    "jobs": 1,
    "stops": 2,
    "drivers": 2,
    "driverShifts": 2
  }
}
