The metrics endpoint is accessible as follows:

https://transfer.double.cloud/metrics/<your_transfer_id>

Export your Transfer metrics

  2. Select the transfer from which you want to export metrics.

  3. Open the Monitoring tab.

  5. Follow the instructions in the dialog window:

    metrics-export-modal

  1. Get a list of hosts using the DoubleCloud API's TransferService List method.
