A graph of the metric is displayed, by default using a time range of the last 7 days. Below the graph, see an overview of metrics segmented per team, author, and repository.
Click into any of the metric points at the bottom of the page to drill in, seeing the data behind the metric.
The metrics segmented by team are based on the individual users within that team. In order to have data appear, the teams must have members and the team's identity mappings must be configured.
Filter the graph
You can filter a graph by time range, teams, author, and repository.
Filter by time range
Click the time range in the upper right corner of the graph. Select a new time range and configure the dates. The graph will automatically reload as you select a time range.
To change the grouping of the time range in the graph, click Display in the upper right corner. You can choose whether to display the data grouped by day, week, or month.
Filter by team, author, or repository
Click Filter in the upper right corner of the graph. You can configure a single filter or a combination of filters for teams, authors, and repositories.
When you are done adding filters, click Apply at the bottom of the filter modal.
Sort the columns
You can sort the data below the graph. Click Sort, then select an option.
Share a report
After selecting a data point and applying filters, you can share the browser URL with other people who have access to your Cortex workspace. The URL query parameters include timestamps, so the shared Metrics Explorer page will reflect the same results across different timezones.
Note that any changes that rewrite Git history (such as a rebase then a force push) can impact metric timestamps or calculations.
