| Metrics is currently in Open Beta for non-Enterprise plans running the JavaScript or Python SDKs. If you'd like access, please comment with your org slug on [this GitHub discussion](https://github.com/getsentry/sentry/discussions/102275) or contact us at feedback-metrics@sentry.io. | ||
| </Alert> | ||
|
|
||
| To set up Sentry Metrics, use the links below for supported SDKs. After it's been set up, you'll be able to send counters, gauges, and distributions from your code and view them in Sentry with direct links to related traces. | ||

||
|
|
||
| ## Quick Start Examples | ||
|
|
||
| ### JavaScript Example | ||
|
|
||
| First, enable metrics in your Sentry initialization: | ||
|
|
||
| ```javascript | ||
| import * as Sentry from "@sentry/node"; // or your specific framework | ||
|
|
||
| Sentry.init({ | ||
| dsn: '<your-dsn>', | ||
| _experiments: { | ||
| enableMetrics: true | ||
| }, | ||
| }); | ||
| ``` | ||
|
|
||
| Then use the metrics API to send counters, gauges, and distributions: | ||
|
|
||
| ```javascript | ||
| // Counter — increment a metric (defaults to +1) | ||
| Sentry.metrics.count('checkout.failed', 1, { | ||
| attributes: { | ||
| route: '/checkout', | ||
| tenant: 'acme', | ||
| provider: 'stripe', | ||
| }, | ||
| }); | ||
|
|
||
| // Gauge — set a current value | ||
| Sentry.metrics.gauge('queue.depth', 42, { | ||
| unit: 'items', | ||
| attributes: { | ||
| queue: 'emails', | ||
| region: 'us-east-1', | ||
| }, | ||
| }); | ||
|
|
||
| // Distribution — record numeric values to compute p95, avg, sum, etc. | ||
| Sentry.metrics.distribution('cart.amount_usd', 187.5, { | ||
| unit: 'usd', | ||
| attributes: { | ||
| currency: 'USD', | ||
| tenant: 'acme', | ||
| }, | ||
| }); | ||
| ``` | ||
|
|
||
| Each metric event includes: | ||
| - **name**: The metric identifier | ||
| - **kind**: counter, gauge, or distribution | ||
| - **value**: The numeric value | ||
| - **attributes**: Custom key-value pairs for grouping and filtering | ||
| - **trace_id, span_id**: Automatically attached to link with traces | ||
| - **unit** (optional): Unit of measurement | ||
| - **byte_size** (optional): Size information | ||
|
|
||

|
|
||
| ### Python Example | ||
|
|
||
| First, enable metrics in your Sentry initialization: | ||
|
|
||
| ```python | ||
| import sentry_sdk | ||
| from sentry_sdk import metrics | ||
|
|
||
| sentry_sdk.init( | ||
| dsn="___PUBLIC_DSN___", | ||
| _experiments={ | ||
| "enable_metrics": True, | ||
| }, | ||
| ) | ||
| ``` | ||
|
|
||
| Then use the metrics API to send counters, gauges, and distributions: | ||
|
|
||
| ```python | ||
| # Counter — increment a metric (defaults to +1) | ||
| metrics.count( | ||
| "checkout.failed", | ||
| 1, | ||
| attributes={"route": "/checkout", "tenant": "acme"} | ||
| ) | ||
|
|
||
| # Gauge — set a current value | ||
| metrics.gauge( | ||
| "queue.depth", | ||
| 42, | ||
| attributes={"queue": "emails"} | ||
| ) | ||
|
|
||
| # Distribution — record numeric values to compute p95, avg, sum, etc. | ||
| metrics.distribution( | ||
| "cart.amount_usd", | ||
| 187.5, | ||
| attributes={"currency": "USD", "tenant": "acme"} | ||
| ) | ||
| ``` | ||
|
|
||
| Each metric event includes: | ||
| - **name**: The metric identifier | ||
| - **kind**: counter, gauge, or distribution | ||
| - **value**: The numeric value | ||
| - **attributes**: Custom key-value pairs for grouping and filtering | ||
| - **trace_id, span_id**: Automatically attached to link with traces | ||
| - **unit** (optional): Unit of measurement | ||
|
|
||
| More details: [Python SDK Metrics Discussion](https://github.com/getsentry/sentry-python/discussions/5042) | ||
|
|
||
| ## Best Practices | ||
|
|
||
| ### Naming Conventions | ||
|
|
||
| Use descriptive, dot-separated names that indicate the metric's purpose: | ||
|
|
||
| - **Good**: `checkout.failed`, `email.sent`, `queue.depth` | ||
| - **Avoid**: `metric1`, `counter`, `x` | ||
|
|
||
| ### Attributes | ||
|
|
||
| Add attributes for any dimension you want to group or filter by: | ||
|
|
||
| ```javascript | ||
| Sentry.metrics.count('api.request', 1, { | ||
| attributes: { | ||
| endpoint: '/users', | ||
| method: 'GET', | ||
| status: '200', | ||
| region: 'us-west', | ||
| }, | ||
| }); | ||
| ``` | ||
|
|
||
| This allows you to query metrics like: | ||
| - `sum(api.request)` grouped by `endpoint` | ||
| - `sum(api.request)` where `status:500` | ||
| - `sum(api.request)` grouped by `region` where `method:POST` | ||
|
|
||
| ### Units | ||
|
|
||
| Always specify units for clarity: | ||
|
|
||
| - Time: `ms`, `seconds` | ||
| - Size: `bytes`, `kb`, `mb` | ||
| - Currency: `usd`, `eur` | ||
| - Count: `items`, `requests`, `users` | ||
|
|
||
| ### When to Instrument | ||
|
|
||
| Add metrics at key decision points in your code: | ||
|
|
||
| - **Before/after critical operations**: Track success and failure rates | ||
| - **At service boundaries**: Monitor external API calls, database queries | ||
| - **Business logic**: Capture important business events | ||
| - **Resource usage**: Track queue depths, connection pools, cache sizes | ||
|
|
||
| ## Upcoming SDKs | ||
|
|
||
| We're actively working on adding Metrics functionality to additional SDKs. If you don't see your platform listed above, please reach out to us on [GitHub](https://github.com/getsentry/sentry/discussions/102275) or contact us at [feedback-metrics@sentry.io](mailto:feedback-metrics@sentry.io). | ||

Bug
The documentation links to
/platforms/javascript/metrics/and/platforms/javascript/guides/:guide/metrics/paths, but these URLs are already redirected in redirects.js (lines 1080-1086) to/platforms/javascript/tracing/span-metrics/which is a different feature. This means all the platform-specific metrics links (lines 22, 27, 32, 37, 42, 47, 52, 57, 62, 67, 72, 77, 82, 87, 92, 97, 102, 107, 112, 117, 122, 127, 132, 137, 142, 147, 152, 157, 162, 167, 172) will redirect users to span-metrics documentation instead of the intended Metrics feature documentation, breaking the documentation flow.
