Analytics and MistServer

MistServer, analytics & reporting​

MistServer has extremely detailed server, stream and viewer statistics. These are accessible through two main methods:

  1. The Prometheus compatible output
  2. The API directly

We recommend using the Prometheus compatible output for long storage, general server statistics, monitoring servers and general use. These stats do hold a lot of detail, but some statistics get filtered as it would be too many data points making the output inefficient. Statistics such as all the addresses of viewers connected to MistServer.

The API can report more detailed, but is less suited for long term statistics gathering. It's best used for getting more details for a very specific case.
