Salah, I'm cross-posting my answer from SO here:
Looking at your code closely again, I realized you may forget to add the metric into your sensor, i.e. you need to call `sensorStartTs.add(metricName, MeasurableStat)` where `MeasurableStat` defines the type of the stat, like Sum, Avg, Count, etc. More specifically: sensorStartTs = streamsMetrics.addSensor("start_ts", Sensor.RecordingLevel.INFO <http://sensor.recordinglevel.info/>); sensorStartTs.add("my metric name", myStat); This is because you used the general `addSensor` API to add the sensor; if you used advanced `addThroughputSensor` etc it will call `sensor.add` for you. Then you should search for your metrics in the thread-level sensors, i.e. in `stream-metrics`. Guozhang On Wed, Feb 14, 2018 at 1:14 PM, Matthias J.
