Adding Metrics to Zendesk Explore Reports

Learn how to add metrics to your Zendesk Explore reports. Metrics are essential for quantifying data like ticket numbers and wait times.

What are metrics and how do I add them to a report?

Metrics are quantifiable values like the number of tickets or wait times, essential for building reports.

To add a metric, go to the Metrics panel in your report, click Add, and select the desired metric from the list. You can expand or collapse folders to find specific metrics. Once selected, click Apply to see the results in your report. Explore automatically chooses the best aggregator for your metric, but you can change it if needed. For more details, see the section on adding metrics in the help docs.
