📈 Metrics

​
Overview

The New Relic destination exports OpenTelemetry metrics to the New Relic Metric API. Summary metrics marked as time-slice metrics are exported via the New Relic agent listener endpoint.

​
Configuration

​
Metric Mapping

  • Gauge metrics map to gauge.
  • Sum metrics map to count with interval.ms derived from start and end timestamps.
  • Summary metrics map to summary with count/sum/min/max.
  • Histogram metrics map to summary with count/sum/min/max.
Exponential histograms are not supported.

​
Time-slice Metrics

Summary metrics are sent to the agent listener when they are marked as time-slice metrics or include New Relic agent attributes.
