OBSERVABILITY_STORAGE_GET_METRIC_BREAKDOWN_NOT_IMPLEMENTED

Error message

This storage provider does not support metric breakdown

What it means

MastraError OBSERVABILITY_STORAGE_GET_METRIC_BREAKDOWN_NOT_IMPLEMENTED is thrown by the default getMetricBreakdown() in the observability storage base class (packages/core/src/storage/domains/observability/base.ts:459). It means the configured storage provider cannot group a metric by label/dimension values. Like the other observability methods, the base implementation always throws so unsupported adapters surface a clear capability error.

Solutions

  1. Switch to or upgrade to a storage adapter implementing the metric breakdown capability (e.g. latest PostgreSQL/upstash adapters).
  2. If the breakdown comes from a dashboard/Studio view you don't control, either point the server at a metrics-capable store or remove the breakdown widget.
  3. For custom adapters, implement getMetricBreakdown (group by the requested label keys) or return an empty response explicitly.
  4. Feature-detect support before calling: compare the method against MastraStorage.prototype.getMetricBreakdown.

Example fix

// before
const rows = await storage.getMetricBreakdown({ metricName: 'llm_latency', groupBy: 'model' }); // throws
// after
const rows = supportsMetricBreakdown(storage)
  ? await storage.getMetricBreakdown({ metricName: 'llm_latency', groupBy: 'model' })
  : [];
Defensive patterns

Strategy: fallback

Validate before calling

import { MastraStorage } from '@mastra/core/storage';

function supportsMetricBreakdown(storage: unknown): boolean {
  return (
    storage instanceof MastraStorage &&
    (storage as MastraStorage).getMetricBreakdown !== MastraStorage.prototype.getMetricBreakdown
  );
}

if (!supportsMetricBreakdown(storage)) {
  console.warn('Metric breakdown unsupported by this storage adapter');
}

Type guard

function supportsMetricBreakdown(s: unknown): s is MastraStorage & { getMetricBreakdown: (a: GetMetricBreakdownArgs) => Promise<GetMetricBreakdownResponse> } {
  return s instanceof MastraStorage && s.getMetricBreakdown !== MastraStorage.prototype.getMetricBreakdown;
}

Try / catch

import { MastraError } from '@mastra/core/error';

try {
  const rows = await storage.getMetricBreakdown(args);
} catch (err) {
  if (err instanceof MastraError && err.id === 'OBSERVABILITY_STORAGE_GET_METRIC_BREAKDOWN_NOT_IMPLEMENTED') {
    const rows = []; // show empty breakdown instead of throwing
  } else {
    throw err;
  }
}

Prevention

When it happens

Trigger: Calling getMetricBreakdown(args) (group metric by labels, e.g. per-agent or per-model breakdown) on a storage adapter that has not overridden the method.

Common situations: Viewing per-label metric breakdowns in Studio while connected to a minimal adapter; a custom storage adapter omits getMetricBreakdown; core/storage package version mismatch after breakdown support was introduced.
