### Step 3: Search or Create Your Metric

In the **Metric Catalog** dropdown, start typing the name of the metric you want to add.

- If the metric already exists in the catalog, **select the existing option** instead of creating a new one.
- If it does not exist, click the **blue “Create Custom Metric – \[Metric Name\]”** option that appears.
