Number of current messages inside a queue

It is this metric: cloud.azure.serviceBus.queue.messages.countActive, which corresponds to the Microsoft documentation metric ActiveMessageCount, described here as “Number of messages in the queue or subscription that are in the active state and ready for delivery (including deferred messages).”
