+### Monitoring
+
+The HTTP API exposed with js-ipfs can also be used for exposing metrics about
+the running js-ipfs node and other nodejs metrics.
+
+To enable it, you need to set the environment variable `IPFS_MONITORING` (any value)
+
+Once environment variable is set and the js-ipfs daemon is running, you can get
+the metrics (in prometheus format) by making a GET request to the following endpoint:
+
+```
+http://localhost:5002/debug/metrics/prometheus
+```
