I walk through a new feature in Tableau 2021.1 that lets you see all metrics related to a visualisation. I show how to open the metrics pane, create metrics from a forecast view, and explain how the connected metrics now appear automatically.

## Key takeaways

- The metrics pane now automatically shows all metrics already created from a given visualisation
- To create a metric, select a metric on the left, click create, and Tableau builds a value from the time series trend in the view
- Each metric creation triggers a 'toast' notification confirming success
- Any site role can now see connected metrics in this view, where previously only creators and explorers could access metrics
