Metrics

Define project measurements that Workflows can emit and Monitoring can chart.

Metrics defines named measurements for operational execution.

The Metrics page showing current metric definitions with type, unit and creation metadata.

This Control page defines what a metric is. It does not show recorded metric values, charts or history. Runtime executions write values against these definitions; Monitoring is where those values are used for operational charts and aggregates.

Definition

A Metric has a name, description and value type. Current value types are:

• Number;

• String;

• Boolean;

• Enum, with configured allowed values.

A unit can be supplied as free text, for example EUR or days.

Enum definitions must contain at least two distinct values. Duplicate enum values are rejected, and updates are validated when values are removed.

Access

Project members can read Metric definitions. Creating and changing them requires Builder-level Project access. Operators do not see Control in the current navigation.

Metric names are unique among active Metrics in a Project. Deletion is soft, so historical data can remain associated with the old definition.

Referenced Metrics cannot be deleted

Lleverage blocks deletion while a Workflow still references the Metric. Dynamic/template-style references also fail closed rather than allowing the definition to disappear while a Workflow may still depend on it.

Use Metrics for measurements that should become part of operational Monitoring. Do not use them as a general-purpose data store.
