Check metrics
Synthetic Monitoring check results are stored as Prometheus metrics in your Grafana Cloud Prometheus instance. The following is a list of metrics common to all check types:
| Metric | Description |
|---|---|
probe_all_duration_seconds | Returns how long the probe took to complete in seconds (histogram). |
probe_duration_seconds | Returns how long the probe took to complete in seconds. |
probe_all_success | Displays whether or not the probe was a success (summary). |
probe_success | Displays whether or not the probe was a success. |
sm_check_info | Provides information about a single check configuration. |
Additionally, each check type also generates its own set of metrics:
- DNS metrics
- HTTP metrics
- k6 browser metrics
- k6 scripted metrics
- MultiHTTP metrics
- Ping metrics
- TCP metrics
- Traceroute metrics
You can then query these metrics to analyze the results of your checks, build custom dashboards, or set up alerts.
