The metrics displayed for a bucket in the [Cloudflare dashboard ↗](https://dash.cloudflare.com/) are queried from Cloudflare's [GraphQL Analytics API](https://docs-durable-objects-instance-replaced-errors.previews.developers.cloudflare.com/analytics/graphql-api/). You can access the metrics [programmatically](#query-via-the-graphql-api) via GraphQL or HTTP client. ## Metrics R2 currently has two datasets: | Dataset | GraphQL Dataset Name | Description | | ---------- | -------------------------- | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- | | Operations | r2OperationsAdaptiveGroups | This dataset consists of the operations taken on a bucket within an account. | | Storage | r2StorageAdaptiveGroups | This dataset consists of the storage of a bucket within an account. | ### Operations Dataset | Field | Description | | ------------------ | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | | actionType | The name of the operation performed. | | actionStatus | The status of the operation. Can be success, userError, or internalError. | | bucketName | The bucket this operation was performed on if applicable. For buckets with a jurisdiction specified, you must include the jurisdiction followed by an underscore before the bucket name. For example: eu\_your-bucket-name | | objectName | The object this operation was performed on if applicable. | | responseStatusCode | The http status code returned by this operation. | | datetime | The time of the request. | ### Storage Dataset | Field | Description | | ------------ | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | | bucketName | The bucket this storage value is for. For buckets with a jurisdiction specified, you must include the [jurisdiction ↗](https://developers.cloudflare.com/r2/reference/data-location/#jurisdictional-restrictions) followed by an underscore before the bucket name. For example: eu\_your-bucket-name | | payloadSize | The size of the objects in the bucket. | | metadataSize | The size of the metadata of the objects in the bucket. | | objectCount | The number of objects in the bucket. | | uploadCount | The number of pending multipart uploads in the bucket. | | datetime | The time that this storage value represents. | Metrics can be queried (and are retained) for the past 31 days. These datasets require an `accountTag` filter with your Cloudflare account ID. Querying buckets with jurisdiction restriction In your account, you may have two buckets of the same name, one with a specified jurisdiction, and one without. Therefore, if you want to query metrics about a bucket which has a specified jurisdiction, you must include the [jurisdiction ↗](https://developers.cloudflare.com/r2/reference/data-location/#jurisdictional-restrictions) followed by an underscore before the bucket name. For example: `eu_bucket-name`. This ensures you query the correct bucket. ## View via the dashboard Per-bucket analytics for R2 are available in the Cloudflare dashboard. To view current and historical metrics for a bucket: 1. In the Cloudflare dashboard, go to the **R2 object storage** page. [Go to **Overview** ↗](https://dash.cloudflare.com/?to=/:account/r2/overview) 2. Select your bucket. 3. Select the **Metrics** tab. You can optionally select a time window to query. This defaults to the last 24 hours. ## Query via the GraphQL API You can programmatically query analytics for your R2 buckets via the [GraphQL Analytics API](https://docs-durable-objects-instance-replaced-errors.previews.developers.cloudflare.com/analytics/graphql-api/). This API queries the same dataset as the Cloudflare dashboard, and supports GraphQL [introspection](https://docs-durable-objects-instance-replaced-errors.previews.developers.cloudflare.com/analytics/graphql-api/features/discovery/introspection/). ## Examples ### Operations To query the volume of each operation type on a bucket for a given time period you can run a query as such ```graphql query R2VolumeExample( $accountTag: string! $startDate: Time $endDate: Time $bucketName: string ) { viewer { accounts(filter: { accountTag: $accountTag }) { r2OperationsAdaptiveGroups( limit: 10000 filter: { datetime_geq: $startDate datetime_leq: $endDate bucketName: $bucketName } ) { sum { requests } dimensions { actionType } } } } } ``` The `bucketName` field can be removed to get an account level overview of operations. The volume of operations can be broken down even further by adding more dimensions to the query. ### Storage To query the storage of a bucket over a given time period you can run a query as such. ```graphql query R2StorageExample( $accountTag: string! $startDate: Time $endDate: Time $bucketName: string ) { viewer { accounts(filter: { accountTag: $accountTag }) { r2StorageAdaptiveGroups( limit: 10000 filter: { datetime_geq: $startDate datetime_leq: $endDate bucketName: $bucketName } orderBy: [datetime_DESC] ) { max { objectCount uploadCount payloadSize metadataSize } dimensions { datetime } } } } } ``` Was this helpful?
