# CommonMetricData

`interface CommonMetricData` [(source)](https://github.com/mozilla-mobile/android-components/blob/master/components/service/glean/src/main/java/mozilla/components/service/glean/metrics/CommonMetricData.kt#L32)

This defines the common set of data shared across all the different
metric types.

### Properties

| Name | Summary |
|---|---|
| [category](category.md) | `abstract val category: `[`String`](https://kotlinlang.org/api/latest/jvm/stdlib/kotlin/-string/index.html) |
| [defaultStorageDestinations](default-storage-destinations.md) | `abstract val defaultStorageDestinations: `[`List`](https://kotlinlang.org/api/latest/jvm/stdlib/kotlin.collections/-list/index.html)`<`[`String`](https://kotlinlang.org/api/latest/jvm/stdlib/kotlin/-string/index.html)`>`<br>Defines the names of the storages the metric defaults to when "default" is used as the destination storage. Note that every metric type will need to override this. |
| [disabled](disabled.md) | `abstract val disabled: `[`Boolean`](https://kotlinlang.org/api/latest/jvm/stdlib/kotlin/-boolean/index.html) |
| [identifier](identifier.md) | `open val identifier: `[`String`](https://kotlinlang.org/api/latest/jvm/stdlib/kotlin/-string/index.html) |
| [lifetime](lifetime.md) | `abstract val lifetime: `[`Lifetime`](../-lifetime/index.md) |
| [name](name.md) | `abstract val name: `[`String`](https://kotlinlang.org/api/latest/jvm/stdlib/kotlin/-string/index.html) |
| [sendInPings](send-in-pings.md) | `abstract val sendInPings: `[`List`](https://kotlinlang.org/api/latest/jvm/stdlib/kotlin.collections/-list/index.html)`<`[`String`](https://kotlinlang.org/api/latest/jvm/stdlib/kotlin/-string/index.html)`>` |

### Functions

| Name | Summary |
|---|---|
| [getStorageNames](get-storage-names.md) | `open fun getStorageNames(): `[`List`](https://kotlinlang.org/api/latest/jvm/stdlib/kotlin.collections/-list/index.html)`<`[`String`](https://kotlinlang.org/api/latest/jvm/stdlib/kotlin/-string/index.html)`>`<br>Get the list of storage names the metric will record to. This automatically expands [DEFAULT_STORAGE_NAME](#) to the list of default storages for the metric. |
| [shouldRecord](should-record.md) | `open fun shouldRecord(logger: `[`Logger`](../../mozilla.components.support.base.log.logger/-logger/index.md)`): `[`Boolean`](https://kotlinlang.org/api/latest/jvm/stdlib/kotlin/-boolean/index.html) |
