AmazonCloudWatchEMFProvider creates metrics asynchronously via CloudWatch Embedded Metric Format (EMF).
CloudWatch EMF can create up to 100 metrics per EMF object and metrics, dimensions, and namespace created via AmazonCloudWatchEMFProvider will adhere to the schema, will be serialized and validated against EMF Schema.
Use
Metrics

Methods
def add_cold_start_metric(self, context: LambdaContext)
-
Add cold start metric and function_name dimension
Parameters
context
:Any
- Lambda context
def add_dimension(self, name: str, value: str) ‑> None
-
Adds given dimension to all metrics
Example
Add a metric dimensions
metric.add_dimension(name="operation", value="confirm_booking")
Parameters
name
:str
- Dimension name
value
:str
- Dimension value
def add_metadata(self, key: str, value: Any) ‑> None
-
Adds high cardinal metadata for metrics object
This will not be available during metrics visualization. Instead, this will be searchable through logs.
If you're looking to add metadata to filter metrics, then use add_dimensions method.
Example
Add metrics metadata
metric.add_metadata(key="booking_id", value="booking_id")
Parameters
key
:str
- Metadata key
value
:any
- Metadata value
def add_metric(self, name: str, unit: MetricUnit | str, value: float, resolution: MetricResolution | int = 60) ‑> None
-
Adds given metric
Example
Add given metric using MetricUnit enum
metric.add_metric(name="BookingConfirmation", unit=MetricUnit.Count, value=1)
Add given metric using plain string as value unit
metric.add_metric(name="BookingConfirmation", unit="Count", value=1)
Add given metric with MetricResolution non default value
metric.add_metric(name="BookingConfirmation", unit="Count", value=1, resolution=MetricResolution.High)
Parameters
name
:str
- Metric name
unit
:MetricUnit | str
aws_lambda_powertools.helper.models.MetricUnit
value
:float
- Metric value
resolution
:MetricResolution | int
aws_lambda_powertools.helper.models.MetricResolution
Raises
MetricUnitError
- When metric unit is not supported by CloudWatch
MetricResolutionError
- When metric resolution is not supported by CloudWatch
def flush_metrics(self, raise_on_empty_metrics: bool = False) ‑> None
-
Manually flushes the metrics. This is normally not necessary, unless you're running on other runtimes besides Lambda, where the @log_metrics decorator already handles things for you.
Parameters
raise_on_empty_metrics
:bool
, optional- raise exception if no metrics are emitted, by default False
def log_metrics(self, lambda_handler: AnyCallableT | None = None, capture_cold_start_metric: bool = False, raise_on_empty_metrics: bool = False, **kwargs)
-
Decorator to serialize and publish metrics at the end of a function execution.
Be aware that the log_metrics *does call the decorated function (e.g. lambda_handler).
Example
Lambda function using tracer and metrics decorators
from aws_lambda_powertools import Metrics, Tracer metrics = Metrics(service="payment") tracer = Tracer(service="payment") @tracer.capture_lambda_handler @metrics.log_metrics def handler(event, context): ...
Parameters
lambda_handler
:Callable[[Any, Any], Any]
, optional- lambda function handler, by default None
capture_cold_start_metric
:bool
, optional- captures cold start metric, by default False
raise_on_empty_metrics

def serialize_metric_set(self, metrics: dict | None = None, dimensions: dict | None = None, metadata: dict | None = None)
-
Serializes metric and dimensions set
Parameters
metrics
:dict
, optional- Dictionary of metrics to serialize, by default None
dimensions
:dict
, optional- Dictionary of dimensions to serialize, by default None
metadata
:dict
, optional- Dictionary of metadata to serialize, by default None
Example
Serialize metrics into EMF format
metrics = MetricManager() # ...add metrics, dimensions, namespace ret = metrics.serialize_metric_set()
Returns
CloudWatchEMFOutput
- Serialized metrics following EMF specification
Raises
SchemaValidationError
- Raised when serialization fail schema validation
def set_default_dimensions(self, **dimensions) ‑> None
-
Persist dimensions across Lambda invocations
Parameters
dimensions
:dict[str, Any]
, optional- metric dimensions as key=value
Example
Sets some default dimensions that will always be present across metrics and invocations
from aws_lambda_powertools import Metrics metrics = Metrics(namespace="ServerlessAirline", service="payment") metrics.set_default_dimensions(environment="demo", another="one") @metrics.log_metrics() def lambda_handler(): return True
def set_timestamp(self, timestamp: int | datetime.datetime)
-
Set the timestamp for the metric.
Parameters:
timestamp: int | datetime.datetime The timestamp to create the metric. If an integer is provided, it is assumed to be the epoch time in milliseconds. If a datetime object is provided, it will be converted to epoch time in milliseconds.
