# Timestream for LiveAnalytics metrics and dimensions
<a name="metrics-dimensions"></a>

When you interact with Timestream for LiveAnalytics, it sends the following metrics and dimensions to Amazon CloudWatch. All metrics are aggregated and reported every minute. You can use the following procedures to view the metrics for Timestream for LiveAnalytics.

**To view metrics using the CloudWatch console**

Metrics are grouped first by the service namespace, and then by the various dimension combinations within each namespace.

1. Open the CloudWatch console at [https://console.aws.amazon.com/cloudwatch/](https://console.aws.amazon.com/cloudwatch/).

1. If necessary, change the Region. On the navigation bar, choose the Region where your AWS resources reside. For more information, see [AWS Service Endpoints](http://docs.aws.amazon.com/general/latest/gr/rande.html).

1. In the navigation pane, choose **Metrics**.

1. Under the **All metrics** tab, choose `AWS/Timestream for LiveAnalytics.`

**To view metrics using the AWS CLI**
+ At a command prompt, use the following command.

  ```
  1. aws cloudwatch list-metrics --namespace "AWS/Timestream"
  ```

## Dimensions for Timestream for LiveAnalytics metrics
<a name="mcs-metric-dimensions"></a>

The metrics for Timestream for LiveAnalytics are qualified by the values for the account, table name, or operation. You can use the CloudWatch console to retrieve Timestream for LiveAnalytics data along any of the dimensions in the following table:


|  Dimension  |  Description  | 
| --- | --- | 
|  DatabaseName  |  This dimension limits the data to a specific Timestream for LiveAnalytics database. This value can be any database in the current Region and the current AWS account   | 
|  Operation  |  This dimension limits the data to one of the Timestream for LiveAnalytics operations, such as `Storage`, `WriteRecords`, `BatchLoad`, or `ScheduledQuery`. See the Timestream for LiveAnalytics Query API Reference for a list of available values.  | 
|  TableName  |  This dimension limits the data to a specific table in a Timestream for LiveAnalyticss database.   | 

**Important**  
`CumulativeBytesMetered`, `UserErrors` and `SystemErrors` metrics only have the `Operation` dimension. `SuccessfulRequestLatency` metrics always have `Operation` dimension, but may also have the `DatabaseName` and `TableName` dimensions too, depending on the value of `Operation`. This is because Timestream for LiveAnalytics table-level operations have `DatabaseName` and `TableName` as dimensions, but account level operations do not.
