Product analytics API

DETAILS: Tier: Ultimate Offering: GitLab.com

Introduced in GitLab 15.4 with a flag named cube_api_proxy. Disabled by default.

cube_api_proxy removed and replaced with product_analytics_internal_preview in GitLab 15.10.

product_analytics_internal_preview replaced with product_analytics_dashboards in GitLab 15.11.

product_analytics_dashboards enabled by default in GitLab 16.11.

FLAG: On self-managed GitLab and GitLab Dedicated, by default this feature is not available. To make it available per project or for your entire instance, an administrator can enable the feature flag named cube_api_proxy. On GitLab.com, this feature is available. This feature is not ready for production use.

NOTE: Make sure to define the cube_api_base_url and cube_api_key application settings first using the API.
