# Supported measures

> Every measure you can chart in an Insights panel, including incident volume, MTTR/MTTA duration metrics, alerts, pager load, follow-ups and time spent

Insights [custom dashboards](/insights/custom-dashboards) are built from **panels**. When you
add a panel, you choose from a set of pre-built panels grouped by area. This page lists every
panel available.

Most panels let you filter the data, split it by an attribute or
[custom field](/incidents/custom-fields), and
[compare with the previous period](/insights/overview). Numeric measures such as duration
metrics, time to acknowledge and time spent can be aggregated as a **count**, **mean** or
**median**.

## At a glance

Incident volume and where incidents are coming from.

| Panel                       | What it shows                                                    |
| --------------------------- | ---------------------------------------------------------------- |
| Incident creation           | The number of incidents created over time                        |
| Incident creation by source | Where your incidents are coming from (e.g. alert sources, users) |
| Incident creation by user   | The number of incidents created by a specific user over time     |
| Group by a custom field     | The number of incidents grouped by a custom field                |

## MTTX (duration metrics)

[Duration metrics](/admin/incident-timestamps) measure the time between two incident
timestamps. You use them to track **MTTR**, **MTTA**, **MTTD** and other response-time metrics,
reported as a mean or median. Because you define the timestamps, you're not limited
to a fixed set: the panels below report on the duration metrics your organization has configured.

| Panel                            | What it shows                                                     |
| -------------------------------- | ----------------------------------------------------------------- |
| Duration metrics                 | Compare all your duration metrics                                 |
| Duration metric breakdown        | Statistics for a single duration metric over time                 |
| Duration metrics by custom field | Statistics for a single duration metric grouped by a custom field |

## Alerts

How your alerts are firing and being handled.

| Panel            | What it shows                                       |
| ---------------- | --------------------------------------------------- |
| Alerts created   | Which alerts and sources are firing most frequently |
| Alert acceptance | Which alerts are being declined, and how frequently |

## Pager load

How often and when people are being paged. Native pager load requires the
[On-call](/on-call/overview) product; the PagerDuty and Opsgenie panels require a connected
[external on-call provider](/integrations/pagerduty).

| Panel                                 | What it shows                                                                                |
| ------------------------------------- | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| Pages                                 | How often and when people are being paged (incident.io On-call)                              |
| Pages (PagerDuty / Opsgenie)          | How often people are being paged, optionally filtered by escalation policy, team, or service |
| Pages per user (PagerDuty / Opsgenie) | How often a particular person is being paged, broken down by time of day                     |

## On-call readiness

| Panel              | What it shows                                                                               |
| ------------------ | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| Notification setup | Your On-call responders' notification setups, so you can check they're reachable when paged |

## Follow-ups

Follow-up creation and completion.

| Panel                      | What it shows                                                                |
| -------------------------- | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| Follow-ups created         | Follow-up creation over time, split by status, assignment, or a custom field |
| Follow-ups by user         | Follow-up status broken down by assignee                                     |

| Post-incident flow  | Which incidents enter your post-incident flow and what happens to them |
| Post-incident tasks | The outcomes of post-incident tasks, grouped by a custom field         |

## Teams

| Panel                   | What it shows                                                             |

| Time spent on incidents | How much time is spent on incidents, broken down by user or team          |

## Time spent on incidents

How [workload](/insights/workload-metrics) is distributed. Time an incident spends
[paused](/incidents/pausing) is excluded, so these figures reflect active effort.
