This approach exposes metrics on port 9464 at the `/metrics` endpoint, allowing Prometheus to scrape the data. The metrics are exposed in Prometheus format but originate from OpenTelemetry instrumentation.
## Option 1: Pull-based Monitoring (Prometheus) ### Configuration
This approach exposes metrics on port 9464 at the `/metrics` endpoint, allowing Prometheus to scrape the data. The metrics are exposed in Prometheus format but originate from OpenTelemetry instrumentation. <Steps>
<Step title="Enable Prometheus export in Infisical">
```bash
OTEL_TELEMETRY_COLLECTION_ENABLED=true
OTEL_EXPORT_TYPE=prometheus
```
</Step>
### Configuration <Step title="Expose the metrics port">
Expose the metrics port in your Infisical backend:
1. **Enable Prometheus export in Infisical**: - **Docker**: Expose port 9464
- **Kubernetes**: Create a service exposing port 9464
- **Other**: Ensure port 9464 is accessible to your monitoring stack
</Step>
```bash <Step title="Create Prometheus configuration">
OTEL_TELEMETRY_COLLECTION_ENABLED=true Create `prometheus.yml`:
OTEL_EXPORT_TYPE=prometheus
```
2. **Expose the metrics port** in your Infisical backend:
- **Docker**: Expose port 9464
- **Kubernetes**: Create a service exposing port 9464
- **Other**: Ensure port 9464 is accessible to your monitoring stack
3. **Create Prometheus configuration** (`prometheus.yml`):
```yaml
global:
scrape_interval: 30s
evaluation_interval: 30s
scrape_configs:
- job_name: "infisical"
scrape_interval: 30s
static_configs:
- targets: ["infisical-backend:9464"] # Adjust hostname/port based on your deployment
metrics_path: "/metrics"
```
**Note**: Replace `infisical-backend:9464` with the actual hostname and port where your Infisical backend is running. This could be:
- **Docker Compose**: `infisical-backend:9464` (service name)
- **Kubernetes**: `infisical-backend.default.svc.cluster.local:9464` (service name)
- **Bare Metal**: `192.168.1.100:9464` (actual IP address)
- **Cloud**: `your-infisical.example.com:9464` (domain name)
### Deployment Options
#### Docker Compose

metrics_path: "/metrics"
```
<Note>
Replace `infisical-backend:9464` with the actual hostname and port where your Infisical backend is running. This could be:
- **Docker Compose**: `infisical-backend:9464` (service name)
- **Kubernetes**: `infisical-backend.default.svc.cluster.local:9464` (service name)

## Troubleshooting ## Troubleshooting
### Common Issues <Accordion title="Metrics not appearing">
If your metrics are not showing up in Prometheus or your monitoring system, check the following:
1. **Metrics not appearing**: - Verify `OTEL_TELEMETRY_COLLECTION_ENABLED=true` is set in your Infisical environment variables
- Ensure the correct `OTEL_EXPORT_TYPE` is set (`prometheus` or `otlp`)
- Check network connectivity between Infisical and your monitoring services (Prometheus or OTLP collector)
- For pull-based monitoring: Verify port 9464 is exposed and accessible
- For push-based monitoring: Verify the OTLP endpoint URL is correct and reachable
- Check Infisical backend logs for any errors related to metrics export
</Accordion>
- Check if `OTEL_TELEMETRY_COLLECTION_ENABLED=true` <Accordion title="Authentication errors">
- Verify the correct `OTEL_EXPORT_TYPE` is set If you're experiencing authentication errors with the OpenTelemetry Collector:
- Check network connectivity between services
2. **Authentication errors**: - Verify basic auth credentials in your OTLP configuration match between Infisical and the collector
- Check that `OTEL_COLLECTOR_BASIC_AUTH_USERNAME` and `OTEL_COLLECTOR_BASIC_AUTH_PASSWORD` match the credentials in your `otel-collector-config.yaml`
- Verify basic auth credentials in OTLP configuration - Ensure the htpasswd format in the collector configuration is correct
- Check if credentials match between Infisical and collector - Test the collector endpoint manually using curl with the same credentials to verify they work
