Is there any way to get information from the Details tab of a past step? That would be very helpful.

Something along the lines of steps.Get_Data.metrics.start_time, which Pi even told me I could use (along with end_time and duration_ms), but it isn’t actually there.

Another wishlist item!

Which really shouldn’t be that difficult to make available TBH…

Agreed.

Creating a GitHub issue might help… maybe.

I would upvote. :man-shrugging:

**Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.** I want to be …able to log the start & end times and duration of each step. A time and duration are available on the Details tab of most, maybe all, steps, but they are not available as part of steps.<step>.context or steps.<step>.exports, etc. **Describe the solution you'd like** There should be a steps.<step>.exports.metrics or steps.<step>.context.metrics, or even just steps.<step>.metrics (which Pi suggests as an available option today). It should contain, at minimum, start_time and duration_ms. It could also contain end_time, though that's computable from the other two, provided that start_time is to the millisecond. It should also contain any other metrics deemed relevant based on the type of step in play. **Do you have a workaround?** No **Comparable features in other tools?** Not sure this is relevant **Additional context** None.
