Multi-metric reports

Having multiple metrics in the same report helps you put data into context without having to switch between multiple reports.

Limitations​

  • Custom metrics are not supported. You cannot add a custom metric to a report that already has one or more metrics, and you cannot add another metric if the report has a custom one.

  • You can add up to four metrics per report, including any combination of basic and extended metrics.

  • The following options are not available for multi-metric reports:

    • View as: Heatmap, Row heatmap, Col heatmap, Treemap, and Sankey chart.

    • Show trendline

    • Secondary time range

Example reports​

Below are examples that demonstrate the typical use of multi-metric reports.

Two basic metrics​

This example uses two basic metrics, Usage and Cost, to help you understand how consumption translates into financial impact.

You can also switch to the Column and Line view for a more intuitive visualization of relationships and trends between metrics.
