Hi

I have setup a keycloak instance with:

KC\_METRICS\_ENABLED=True  
KC\_HEALTH\_ENABLED=True

and [GitHub - aerogear/keycloak-metrics-spi: Adds a Metrics Endpoint to Keycloak](https://github.com/aerogear/keycloak-metrics-spi) is included in the [quay.io](http://quay.io)

The problem is that how do I access that ?

> Events in other Realms can be enabled by manually adding the ‘metrics-listener’ in Events → Config.

But there is not metrics-listener?!

[https://issues.redhat.com/browse/AEROGEAR-3074](https://issues.redhat.com/browse/AEROGEAR-3074)

[https://www.keycloak.org/docs/latest/server\_admin/index.html#configuring-auditing-to-track-events](https://www.keycloak.org/docs/latest/server_admin/index.html#configuring-auditing-to-track-events)

Events in server\_admin never mention anything about metrics-listener.

Didi you manage to find the efficient way for using metrics with Prometheus?
