Export metrics from YugabyteDB Anywhere universes

You can export universe metrics to third-party tools for analysis and customization.

Prerequisites

• The Metrics export feature is {{<tags/feature/ea idea="441">}}. To enable the feature in YugabyteDB Anywhere, set the Enable Metrics Export Global Configuration option (config key yb.universe.metrics_export_enabled) to true. Refer to Manage runtime configuration settings. Note that only a Super Admin user can modify Global configuration settings. The flag can't be turned off if metrics export is enabled on a universe.

• Create an export configuration. A configuration defines the sign in credentials and settings for the tool that you want to export metrics to. Refer to Manage export configurations.
