# View JMX data in jConsole and set up your jmx.yaml to collect them

This article provides two examples of converting metric data from your jConsole into a valid Datadog Agent configuration file (`jmx.yaml`).

The first example shows conversion for `domain -> type -> bean -> attribute`:

The second example shows conversion for `domain -> bean -> attribute`:

   alt="jConsolejmx" /%}

After the Datadog Agent is set up to submit JMX metrics, use the [Metrics Explorer](https://docs.datadoghq.com/metrics/explorer/) to verify the metrics are being submitted to Datadog. The example below demonstrates how you can filter the metrics by tags:
