Managing Metrics

Click the dropdown next to a metric to edit it, rename it, share it, duplicate it, delete it, transfer it to another owner, and more.

Managing Individual Metrics

The following actions are available if you’ve selected one metric:

Qtip: You cannot edit metrics created by other users, even if you have access to them. However, you can duplicate an existing metric and then modify it.

Edit: Edit your metric. This lets you change details such as the metric’s name, how it’s configured, properties, numeric formatting, and conditional formatting. See Creating Metrics for details on settings that apply to all metrics. See also specific metric pages:
Rename: Change your metric’s name.
Qtip: If a metric is public, its name must be unique per project, regardless of who created it. If a metric is private, its name must be unique among other metrics created for the same project by its owner.
Share: See Sharing Metrics.
Duplicate: Create a copy of a metric.
Show/Hide: See Hiding Metrics.
Dependencies: See Metric Dependencies.
Delete: You can only delete metrics you created. If you delete a metric, it will be automatically removed from all widgets and you won’t be able to use the metric anymore. For information on restoring metrics, see Using the Recycle Bin.
Qtip: If another user shared a metric with you and you no longer need it, they can stop sharing it.
Transfer: See Transferring Metrics.

Managing Multiple Metrics at the Same Time

The following actions are available if you’ve selected multiple metrics:

Share: See Sharing Metrics.
Edit Labels: See Labeling Metrics
Show/Hide: See Hiding Metrics.
Delete Selected: You can only delete metrics you created. If you delete a metric, it will be automatically removed from all widgets and you won’t be able to use the metric anymore. For information on restoring metrics, see Using the Recycle Bin.
