# Inspect metrics

Grafana Cloud k6 provides an out of the box visualization of [system metrics](/docs/k6/latest/using-k6/metrics/) from your test run. Depending on your use case, you might have specific system metrics, or even [custom metrics](/docs/k6/latest/using-k6/metrics/create-custom-metrics/), that you would like to explore. The analysis tab is a good place to visualize any metrics from your test run that might be more relevant to your use case, and then bring them into [Grafana Explore](/docs/grafana/latest/explore/) so you can dive deeper into results and uncover any performance issues in your application.

To inspect the metrics from your test run, go to a test result and select the **Analysis** tab.

The analysis tab is available when inspecting a single test run, and also when comparing test runs.

## Add/remove metrics

By default, the analysis tab displays panels for six metrics. In the **Metrics** field, you can search for any system or custom metrics, and add them to the analysis tab, as well as remove any metrics by selecting the “X” icon next to them.

## Add panels to Grafana Explore

You can select the three-dot icon next to each panel to see two options:

- **Explore**: Displays the selected metric in [Grafana Explore](/docs/grafana/latest/explore/), where you can customize any parameters for your query and add it to a dashboard.
- **Copy to clipboard**: Copies the JSON information for the panel, which you can then add to a Grafana dashboard by opening a dashboard and selecting **Add**, and **Paste panel**.
