In Gen2, it was pretty easy to get an idea of the cost of custom metrics, but I have been unable to find any way of doing it for the new Gen3 Grail-enabled metrics. I know it is usually a function of cardinality and the number of metric points, but I want to be able to target specific expensive custom metrics to reduce their ingestion if possible and reduce cost. Only problem is I don't know which of our ingested metrics to look at first.</P><P>If I run a DQL query for "metrics", none of the returned columns seem to have anything that would be useful for estimating cost.</P> Tue, 19 May 2026 15:46:51 GMT https://community.dynatrace.com/t5/DQL/Querying-to-find-the-most-costly-ingested-metrics/m-p/299699#M3350 siavash1996 2026-05-19T15:46:51Z https://community.dynatrace.com/t5/DQL/Querying-to-find-the-most-costly-ingested-metrics/m-p/299724#M3352 <P>Hi,</P><P>We have a section in the Account level where you can find notebooks about this.</P><P>Best regards</P> Wed, 20 May 2026 07:12:25 GMT https://community.dynatrace.com/t5/DQL/Querying-to-find-the-most-costly-ingested-metrics/m-p/299724#M3352 AntonPineiro 2026-05-20T07:12:25Z
