 Stash has native support for monitoring via Prometheus.
 
 ## Monitoring Stash Operator
-Stash operator exposes Prometheus native monitoring data via `/metrics` endpoint on `:56790` port. You can setup a [CoreOS Prometheus ServiceMonitor](https://github.com/coreos/prometheus-operator) using `stash-operator` service.
+Stash operator exposes Prometheus native monitoring data via `/metrics` endpoint on `:8443` port. You can setup a [CoreOS Prometheus ServiceMonitor](https://github.com/coreos/prometheus-operator) using `stash-operator` service.
+
+
+Follow the steps below to view the metrics:
+
+1. Give `system:anonymous` user access to `/metrics` url. **This is not safe to do on a production cluster.**
+
+```yaml
+apiVersion: rbac.authorization.k8s.io/v1
+kind: ClusterRole
+metadata:
+  name: appscode:system:metrics-collector
+rules:
+- nonResourceURLs: ["/metrics"]
+  verbs: ["get"]
+---
+apiVersion: rbac.authorization.k8s.io/v1
+kind: ClusterRoleBinding
+metadata:
+  name: appscode:system:metrics-collector
+roleRef:
+  apiGroup: rbac.authorization.k8s.io
+  kind: ClusterRole
+  name: appscode:system:metrics-collector
+subjects:
+- apiGroup: rbac.authorization.k8s.io
+  kind: User
+  name: system:anonymous
+```
+
+```console
+$ kubectl auth reconcile -f docs/examples/monitoring/metrics-collector.yaml
+clusterrole.rbac.authorization.k8s.io "appscode:system:metrics-collector" reconciled
+clusterrolebinding.rbac.authorization.k8s.io "appscode:system:metrics-collector" reconciled
+```
+
+2. Now, forward the port `:8443` to your workstation.
+
+```
+$ kubectl get pods -n kube-system | grep stash
+stash-operator-f89dcccdb-plvmt        1/1       Running   0          27m
+
+$ kubectl port-forward -n kube-system stash-operator-f89dcccdb-plvmt 8443
+Forwarding from 127.0.0.1:8443 -> 8443
+Forwarding from [::1]:8443 -> 8443
+```
+
+3. Now, visit the url: https://127.0.0.1:8443/metrics
+
+![operator-metrics](/docs/images/monitoring/operator-metrics.png)
+
+4. Once you are done, remove access to `system:anonymous` user.
+
+```console
+$ kubectl delete -f docs/examples/monitoring/metrics-collector.yaml
+clusterrole.rbac.authorization.k8s.io "appscode:system:metrics-collector" deleted
+clusterrolebinding.rbac.authorization.k8s.io "appscode:system:metrics-collector" deleted
+```
 
 ## Monitoring Backup Operation
 Since backup operations are run as cron jobs, Stash can use [Prometheus Pushgateway](https://github.com/prometheus/pushgateway) cache metrics for backup operation. The installation scripts for Stash operator deploys a Prometheus Pushgateway as a sidecar container. You can configure a Prometheus server to scrape this Pushgateway via `stash-operator` service on port `:56789`. Backup operations send the following metrics to this Pushgateway:
