Get statistics

Audio, video and data packets sent over PeerConnection can be lost or delayed along the way, depending on network conditions. By using the statistics API, you can monitor the performance of your network and media pipeline and get clues as to the cause of the problem.

Get RTCPeerConnection statistics

Statistics can be obtained for each PeerConnection. Call the GetStats method of the RTCPeerConnection.

// Get Statistics
var statsOperation = peerConnection.GetStats();
yield return statsOperation;
var statsReport = statisOperation.Value;

You can get the statistics at the time of calling the GetStats method. The statistics contained in the result are stored in the RTCStatsReport. The content of the statistics depends on the media or data that is being communicated on the target PeerConnection. The RTCStatsReport.Stats gives access to a dictionary with RTCStats as a value, using the RTCStatsType and Id pairs as keys.

RTCStatsType and RTCStats

The types of statistics available are defined by the RTCStatsType.

public enum RTCStatsType
{
    [StringValue("codec")]
    Codec = 0,
    [StringValue("inbound-rtp")]
    InboundRtp = 1,
    [StringValue("outbound-rtp")]
    OutboundRtp = 2,
    [StringValue("remote-inbound-rtp")]
    RemoteInboundRtp = 3,
    [StringValue("remote-outbound-rtp")]
    RemoteOutboundRtp = 4,
    [StringValue("media-source")]
    MediaSource = 5,
    [StringValue("csrc")]
    Csrc = 6,
    [StringValue("peer-connection")]
    PeerConnection = 7,
    [StringValue("data-channel")]
    DataChannel = 8,
    [StringValue("stream")]
    Stream = 9,
    [StringValue("track")]
    Track = 10,
    [StringValue("transceiver")]
    Transceiver = 11,
    [StringValue("sender")]
    Sender = 12,
    [StringValue("receiver")]
    Receiver = 13,
    [StringValue("transport")]
    Transport = 14,
    [StringValue("sctp-transport")]
    SctpTransport = 15,
    [StringValue("candidate-pair")]
    CandidatePair = 16,
    [StringValue("local-candidate")]
    LocalCandidate = 17,
    [StringValue("remote-candidate")]
    RemoteCandidate = 18,
    [StringValue("certificate")]
    Certificate = 19,
    [StringValue("ice-server")]
    IceServer = 20,
}

This class extends the RTCStats for each type of statistics. For example, in the case of RTCStatsType.Codec, it defines the class RTCCodecStats. Each class exposes the statistics of each type as a member variable. Check each inherited class to see what statistics are available. To access the member variables, cast the RTCStats obtained via RTCStatsReport.Stats for each type.

Statistics tool

A tool is provided to display the current statistics for testing on the editor. See here for more information.
