+This plugin allows for other plugins to add data to Kibana stack monitoring documents.
+
+## OpenTelemetry Metrics
+
+TODO: explain how to instrument the code with `@opentelemetry/api-metrics` so that the steps below will work with metrics
+
+### Enable Prometheus endpoint with Elastic Agent Prometheus input
+
+1. Start [local setup with fleet](../fleet/README.md#running-fleet-server-locally-in-a-container) or a cloud cluster
+2. Start Kibana
+3. Set up a new agent policy and enroll a new agent in your local machine
+4. Install the Prometheus Metrics package
+  a. Set **Hosts** with `localhost:5601`
+  b. Set **Metrics Path** with `/(BASEPATH)/api/monitoring_collection/v1/prometheus`
+  c. Remove the values from **Bearer Token File** and **SSL Certificate Authorities**
+  d. Set **Username** and **Password** with `elastic` and `changeme`
+5. Add the following configuration to `kibana.dev.yml`
+
+    ```yml
+    # Enable the prometheus exporter
+    monitoring_collection.opentelemetry.metrics:
+      prometheus.enabled: true
+
+    ```
+
+6. Set up a rule (I use "Create default rules" in the top "Alerts and rules" menu of Stack Monitoring UI)
+
+### Enable OpenTelemetry Metrics API exported as OpenTelemetry Protocol
+
+1. Start [local setup with fleet](../fleet/README.md#running-fleet-server-locally-in-a-container) or a cloud cluster
+2. Start Kibana
+3. Set up a new agent policy and enroll a new agent in your local machine
+4. Install Elastic APM package listening on `localhost:8200` without authentication
+5. Add the following configuration to `kibana.dev.yml`
+
+    ```yml
+    # Enable the OTLP exporter
+    monitoring_collection.opentelemetry.metrics:
+      otlp.url: "http://127.0.0.1:8200"
+    ```
+
+6. Set up a rule (I use "Create default rules" in the top "Alerts and rules" menu of Stack Monitoring UI)
