title: Get scraper metrics (Prometheus integration)
source: https://docs.newrelic.com/docs/infrastructure/prometheus-integrations/troubleshooting/get-scraper-metrics-prometheus-integration

## Problem

You want to get scraper metrics for your Prometheus OpenMetrics integration with New Relic for Docker or Kubernetes.

![Docker icon](https://docs.newrelic.com/images/os_icon_docker.webp "Docker icon") **Docker:** If you configure the `http://localhost:8080/metrics` endpoint, the integration will also scrape its own metrics.

![img-integration-k8s@2x.png](https://docs.newrelic.com/images/os_icon_k8.webp "img-integration-k8s@2x.png") **Kubernetes:** By default, the scraper will also scrape its own metrics.

## Solution

To learn more about what is happening inside the scraper, use the following metrics for your Docker or Kubernetes integration with New Relic:

| Metric                                               | Description                                                                                                                        |

| `nr_stats_metrics_total_timeseries`                  | The total number of scraped time series.                                                                                           |
| `nr_stats_metrics_total_timeseries_by_target`        | Total number of time series by target.                                                                                             |
