Get metric

Get information for a single metric from the specific project.

Expanding the metric response

LaunchDarkly supports four fields for expanding the “Get metric” response. By default, these fields are not included in the response.

To expand the response, append the expand query parameter and add a comma-separated list with any of the following fields:

  • experiments includes all experiments from the specific project that use the metric
  • experimentCount includes the number of experiments from the specific project that use the metric
  • metricGroups includes all metric groups from the specific project that use the metric
  • metricGroupCount includes the number of metric groups from the specific project that use the metric

For example, expand=experiments includes the experiments field in the response.
