Metrics Catalog

The Metrics Catalog is the canonical list of every metric in a project. Experiment owners pick from this list when they choose primary and secondary metrics.

Where to find this in the console

Data Management → Metrics Catalog. The page has a search box (Search by metric name/owner), a Documentation link, and a Create button.

Metrics Catalog list showing the Name, Metric Group, Data Source, Metric Type, and Status columns

Columns shown

ColumnWhat it shows
NameThe metric identifier used in experiments (letters, numbers, and underscores only).
Metric GroupThe group the metric belongs to, e.g. Game Core Metrics.
Data SourceThe registered table the metric is computed from, e.g. abc_user_fact_date_partition.
Metric TypeThe field aggregation, e.g. Average, Sum, Ratio, User Count.
StatusActive until you archive it.

The list also carries Last modified by / at and Owner / Created at columns. The Metric Group and Metric Type headers each have a funnel icon you can filter by.

Actions on a metric

  • Archive — retire a metric. It disappears from the metric picker in new experiments while historical experiments keep their definition.
  • Copy — seed a new metric from an existing definition.

Create a metric

Click Create to open the Create a New Metric form. It has two sections — 1. Basic Information and 2. Metric Configuration. See Metric Sources for the source table and aggregation, and Metric Types for the available aggregations.
