> For the full documentation index, see: https://docs.mulesoft.com/llms.txt

Anypoint Custom Metrics Connector enables you to send operational and business metric values that
you define from an application to Anypoint Monitoring, where the metrics can be visualized in real
time using custom dashboards.

Once the metrics are in a custom dashboard, you can filter and group the metrics along the included
dimensions. You can include multiple custom and built-in metrics in a single dashboard
visualization.

This connector is available only if your organization has the Anypoint Integration Advanced package
or a Titanium subscription to Anypoint Platform. For more information, see the
[Pricing and Packaging](https://docs.mulesoft.com/general/pricing) documentation.

For an example of how to use the Anypoint Custom Metrics connector in an end-to-end flow, see
[Custom Metrics](https://docs.mulesoft.com/monitoring/anypoint-custom-metrics-connector).
