Metrics

Navigate to Telemetry > Metrics for a dedicated metrics explorer - a list of every metric ARMS has received, with a detail view per metric (/telemetry/metrics/<name>).

The metrics list shows, per metric: Metric name, Type, Service, Unit, Latest value, number of Points, and Last Seen. Each metric can be filtered by:

  • Attributes - the metric's own data-point attributes.
  • Resource attributes - service, environment, and other resource-level attributes.
  • Scope attributes - instrumentation scope metadata.
  • Field - top-level metric fields (name, unit, type).

Metrics cover gauge, sum, histogram, summary, and exponential-histogram types, matching the OpenTelemetry metrics data model.

Metric detail view

Opening a metric shows summary tiles (Latest, Total, Average, Loaded Points, Last Seen), a Metric Trend area chart of its data points over time, and a tabbed attributes panel: Metric Attributes, Resource Attributes, Scope Attributes, plus raw Points and Series tabs for the underlying data.

You can still build custom Dashboard Widgets on top of the same metrics data for cross-signal visualizations, trend charts, and alert-style stat tiles - the Metrics explorer and Dashboards read from the same underlying data and are complementary, not either/or.
