# Analyze monitor and check results

When you access a **monitor** (from Metric Monitoring) or a **check** (from the Contract), Soda Cloud provides a **time series view** that shows how the monitored metric or check result evolves. This helps you explore the history of data quality issues, spot trends, and understand changes in your data.

## Diagnostics

For certain types of checks, **additional diagnostic information** is also available for check results to help you investigate issues in more detail.

For example:

* **Schema Checks**: View a side-by-side comparison of the **actual vs. expected schema** to identify differences.
* **Missing, Duplicate, or Invalid checks**: See the percentage of failed rows vs. passing rows, including a breakdown of **valid**, **missing**, **invalid**, and **duplicate** rows, as well as the **number of tested rows**, to understand the scale and impact of the issue.
* **Reconciliation checks**: View reconciliation insights from both the **source** and the **target** datasets to compare results, identify gaps, and better understand mismatches.

This view helps you drill down into specific data issues, explore context, and take informed action.

# Agent Instructions
This documentation is published with GitBook. GitBook is the documentation platform designed so that both humans and AI agents can read, navigate, and reason over technical content effectively. Learn more at gitbook.com.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the following URL with the `ask` and `goal` query parameters:

```
GET https://docs.soda.io/soda-documentation/manage-issues/analyze-monitor-and-check-results.md?ask=<question>&goal=<user_goal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is what the user is ultimately trying to achieve, the reason they need the answer. Sharing it helps GitBook give you a better, more relevant answer. A goal is most helpful when it describes the outcome the user wants rather than restating the question. For example, with `ask=how do I create an API token`, a goal like `automate deployments from our CI pipeline` lets GitBook tailor the answer to that use case.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
