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.
