## Deprecation of legacy Prometheus metric names
In current versions of Synapse, some Prometheus metrics are emitted under two different names,
with one of the names being older but non-compliant with OpenMetrics and Prometheus conventions
and one of the names being newer but compliant.
Synapse v1.71.0 will turn the old metric names off *by default*.
For administrators that still rely on them and have not had chance to update their
uses of the metrics, it's possible to specify `enable_legacy_metrics: true` in
the configuration to re-enable them temporarily.
Synapse v1.73.0 will **remove legacy metric names altogether** and it will no longer
be possible to re-enable them.
The Grafana dashboard, Prometheus recording rules and Prometheus Consoles included
in the `contrib` directory in the Synapse repository have been updated to no longer
rely on the legacy names. These can be used on a current version of Synapse
because current versions of Synapse emit both old and new names.
You may need to update your alerting rules or any other rules that depend on
the names of Prometheus metrics.
If you want to test your changes before legacy names are disabled by default,
you may specify `enable_legacy_metrics: false` in your homeserver configuration.
A list of affected metrics is available on the [Metrics How-to page](https://matrix-org.github.io/synapse/v1.69/metrics-howto.html?highlight=metrics%20deprecated#renaming-of-metrics--deprecation-of-old-names-in-12).
# Upgrading to v1.68.0

### `enable_legacy_metrics`
Set to `true` to publish both legacy and non-legacy Prometheus metric names,
or to `false` to only publish non-legacy Prometheus metric names.
Defaults to `true`. Has no effect if `enable_metrics` is `false`.
**In Synapse v1.71.0, this will default to `false` before being removed in Synapse v1.73.0.**
Legacy metric names include:
- metrics containing colons in the name, such as `synapse_util_caches_response_cache:hits`, because colons are supposed to be reserved for user-defined recording rules;
- counters that don't end with the `_total` suffix, such as `synapse_federation_client_sent_edus`, therefore not adhering to the OpenMetrics standard.
These legacy metric names are unconventional and not compliant with OpenMetrics standards.
They are included for backwards compatibility.
Example configuration:
```yaml
enable_legacy_metrics: false

See https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/issues/11106 for context.
