+<ol>
+<li>
+<p>Install Prometheus:</p>
+<p>Follow instructions at
+<a href="http://prometheus.io/docs/introduction/install/">http://prometheus.io/docs/introduction/install/</a></p>
+</li>
+<li>
+<p>Enable Synapse metrics:</p>
+<p>In <code>homeserver.yaml</code>, make sure <code>enable_metrics</code> is
+set to <code>True</code>.</p>
+</li>
+<li>
+<p>Enable the <code>/_synapse/metrics</code> Synapse endpoint that Prometheus uses to
+collect data:</p>
+<p>There are two methods of enabling the metrics endpoint in Synapse.</p>
+<p>The first serves the metrics as a part of the usual web server and
+can be enabled by adding the <code>metrics</code> resource to the existing
+listener as such as in this example:</p>
+<pre><code class="language-yaml">listeners:
+  - port: 8008
+    tls: false
+    type: http
+    x_forwarded: true
+    bind_addresses: ['::1', '127.0.0.1']
+
+    resources:
+      # added &quot;metrics&quot; in this line
+      - names: [client, federation, metrics]
+        compress: false
+</code></pre>
+<p>This provides a simple way of adding metrics to your Synapse
+installation, and serves under <code>/_synapse/metrics</code>. If you do not
+wish your metrics be publicly exposed, you will need to either
+filter it out at your load balancer, or use the second method.</p>
+<p>The second method runs the metrics server on a different port, in a
+different thread to Synapse. This can make it more resilient to
+heavy load meaning metrics cannot be retrieved, and can be exposed
+to just internal networks easier. The served metrics are available
+over HTTP only, and will be available at <code>/_synapse/metrics</code>.</p>
+<p>Add a new listener to homeserver.yaml as in this example:</p>
+<pre><code class="language-yaml">listeners:
+  - port: 8008
+    tls: false
+    type: http
+    x_forwarded: true
+    bind_addresses: ['::1', '127.0.0.1']
+
+    resources:
+      - names: [client, federation]
+        compress: false
+
+  # beginning of the new metrics listener
+  - port: 9000
+    type: metrics
+    bind_addresses: ['::1', '127.0.0.1']
+</code></pre>
+</li>
+<li>
+<p>Restart Synapse.</p>
+</li>
+<li>
+<p>Add a Prometheus target for Synapse.</p>
+<p>It needs to set the <code>metrics_path</code> to a non-default value (under
+<code>scrape_configs</code>):</p>
+<pre><code class="language-yaml">  - job_name: &quot;synapse&quot;
+    scrape_interval: 15s
+    metrics_path: &quot;/_synapse/metrics&quot;
+    static_configs:
+      - targets: [&quot;my.server.here:port&quot;]
+</code></pre>
+<p>where <code>my.server.here</code> is the IP address of Synapse, and <code>port</code> is
+the listener port configured with the <code>metrics</code> resource.</p>
+<p>If your prometheus is older than 1.5.2, you will need to replace
+<code>static_configs</code> in the above with <code>target_groups</code>.</p>
+</li>
+<li>
+<p>Restart Prometheus.</p>
+</li>
+<li>
+<p>Consider using the <a href="https://github.com/element-hq/synapse/tree/master/contrib/grafana/">grafana dashboard</a>
+and required <a href="https://github.com/element-hq/synapse/tree/master/contrib/prometheus/">recording rules</a></p>
+</li>
+</ol>
+<h2 id="monitoring-workers"><a class="header" href="#monitoring-workers">Monitoring workers</a></h2>
+<p>To monitor a Synapse installation using <a href="workers.html">workers</a>,
+every worker needs to be monitored independently, in addition to
+the main homeserver process. This is because workers don't send
+their metrics to the main homeserver process, but expose them
+directly (if they are configured to do so).</p>
+<p>To allow collecting metrics from a worker, you need to add a
+<code>metrics</code> listener to its configuration, by adding the following
+under <code>worker_listeners</code>:</p>
+<pre><code class="language-yaml">  - type: metrics
+    bind_address: ''
+    port: 9101
+</code></pre>
+<p>The <code>bind_address</code> and <code>port</code> parameters should be set so that
+the resulting listener can be reached by prometheus, and they
+don't clash with an existing worker.
+With this example, the worker's metrics would then be available
+on <code>http://127.0.0.1:9101</code>.</p>
+<p>Example Prometheus target for Synapse with workers:</p>
+<pre><code class="language-yaml">  - job_name: &quot;synapse&quot;
+    scrape_interval: 15s
+    metrics_path: &quot;/_synapse/metrics&quot;
+    static_configs:
+      - targets: [&quot;my.server.here:port&quot;]
+        labels:
+          instance: &quot;my.server&quot;
+          job: &quot;master&quot;
+          index: 1
+      - targets: [&quot;my.workerserver.here:port&quot;]
+        labels:
+          instance: &quot;my.server&quot;
+          job: &quot;generic_worker&quot;
+          index: 1
+      - targets: [&quot;my.workerserver.here:port&quot;]
+        labels:
+          instance: &quot;my.server&quot;
+          job: &quot;generic_worker&quot;
+          index: 2
+      - targets: [&quot;my.workerserver.here:port&quot;]
+        labels:
+          instance: &quot;my.server&quot;
+          job: &quot;media_repository&quot;
+          index: 1
+</code></pre>
+<p>Labels (<code>instance</code>, <code>job</code>, <code>index</code>) can be defined as anything.
+The labels are used to group graphs in grafana.</p>
