 You can get information about your server's metrics on its **Server details** page. This provides you with a single place to monitor your file-transfers workloads. You can track how many files you have exchanged with your partners and closely track their usage using a centralized dashboard. For details, see [View SFTP, FTPS, and FTP server details](configuring-servers-view-info.md). The following table describes the metrics available for Transfer Family.
