### Configuration
Immich will not expose an endpoint for metrics by default. To enable this endpoint, you can add the `IMMICH_METRICS=true` environmental variable to your `.env` file. Note that only the server and microservices containers currently use this variable.

:::tip
`IMMICH_METRICS` enables all metrics, but there are also [environmental variables](/docs/install/environment-variables.md#prometheus) to toggle specific metric groups. If you'd like to only expose certain kinds of metrics, you can set only those environmental variables to `true`. Explicitly setting the environmental variable for a metric group overrides `IMMICH_METRICS` for that group. For example, setting `IMMICH_METRICS=true` and `IMMICH_API_METRICS=false` will enable all metrics except API metrics.
`IMMICH_TELEMETRY_INCLUDE=all` enables all metrics. For a more granular configuration you can enumerate the telemetry metrics that should be included as a comma separated list (e.g. `IMMICH_TELEMETRY_INCLUDE=repo,api`). Alternatively, you can also exclude specific metrics with `IMMICH_TELEMETRY_EXCLUDE`. For more information refer to the [environment section](/docs/install/environment-variables.md#prometheus).

The next step is to configure a new or existing Prometheus instance to scrape this endpoint. The following steps assume that you do not have an existing Prometheus instance, but the steps will be similar either way.
