AppSignal’s Render metrics and dashboards are available for Render workspaces and can be configured in just a few steps using Render’s Metrics Stream feature.
Render’s Metrics Stream feature requires the Render workspace to be on the Pro plan or higher.
Please note that Render’s Metrics Stream is configured per workspace, while AppSignal’s app-level push API key is per app. Choose the AppSignal app that should receive metrics for the whole Render workspace before you continue. If your Render workspace runs multiple applications, metrics from all Render services will be sent to the AppSignal app that owns the configured key, and currently cannot be split per service.
If you also want to access and manage your Render logs in AppSignal, you should additionally configure the Render Log Stream for AppSignal Logging. You only have to set up this metrics stream once per workspace and it will provide data for features such as host metrics and Intelligence dashboards. To configure Render to send OpenTelemetry metrics to AppSignal, follow the steps below:
  1. From your workspace’s home in the Render Dashboard, select Integrations > Observability in the left sidebar, then select + Add destination under Metrics Stream.

  2. Choose Custom as the Observability provider.
  3. In the Endpoint field, enter the URL of your Hosted Collector, which you can find in your organization’s Hosted Collectors settings.
  4. In the Token field, enter your AppSignal app-level push API key, which can be found in App settings.
  5. Select Add destination.

After this, Render will create a metrics stream and send service metrics to AppSignal. CPU, memory, disk capacity, disk I/O and network I/O metrics will appear as host metrics in your AppSignal app, alongside any other host metrics. HTTP, Render Postgres and Render Key Value metrics power the Intelligence dashboards that appear in your AppSignal app. If you do not see metrics yet, wait a few minutes and refresh the page.

To report deploys from a Render service, install the AppSignal integration for your language. AppSignal will pick up Render’s RENDER_GIT_COMMIT environment variable automatically; see Render support in our deploy markers documentation for details.
