# bd metrics

> Show or change anonymous usage-metrics settings

Generated from `bd help --doc metrics`.

Show whether anonymous usage metrics are on, see exactly what is sent, and
turn them on or off.

bd shares anonymous usage metrics to learn how people actually use it — just
which commands get run, plus the bd version and OS platform. That's how we decide
what to polish next. We never collect your issues, paths, remotes, identity, or
any user-supplied text.

bd metrics on         turn metrics on
bd metrics off        turn metrics off
bd metrics example    show real examples of the events bd sends
