Composite Metrics

Composite metrics let you define a new higher-level metric by specifying an arbitrary set of mathematical transformations to perform on a selection of native metrics you’re sending us. You “compose” a new higher-level metric using the native metrics you send us as inputs. Alternatively you can think of it as a way to specify complex queries against your native metrics.

To create a composite metrics simply open the Composite Metric Editor.
