Hi,

Does anyone know a way to get the metrics shown in Database / Query Details page to a custom Dashboard? We would like to build a morning status dashboard that shows the execution times of certain queries that happen overnight.

Hi Antti,

These details are in events service elastic search and not in the mysql db. These dashbaords that you see is custom formatted information and not a simple metric and hence cannot be used in custom dashboards.

Hi Antti,

Only metrics available in database metric browser can be plotted in a custom dashboard. To see more information about a specific metric, double click any point on the graph and the Metric Browser opens displaying that metric.

Thanks for the quick answer. I know that anything in metric browser can be shown in dashboards but I was just thinking if there was a way to use some REST API or similar to fetch the query details to dashboard. Or if it was possible to create a metric of those query details. The query details data is somewhere in the controller database anyway. But this is what I was afraid that they can't be used in a dashboard.

Hi,

Thanks. This I didn't know. Now it makes sense that this information is not available.
