+# bigquery-etl and Bigeye
+
+Monitors can be defined alongside derived datasets in bigquery-etl. Monitoring in Bigeye for a specific table can be enabled by adding `monitoring` metadata to the `metadata.yaml` file:
+
+```yaml
+friendly_name: Some Table
+monitoring:
+  enabled: true # Enables monitoring for the table in Bigeye and deploys freshness and volume metrics
+  collection: Test # An existing collection these monitors should be part of in Bigeye
+```
+
+Enabling monitoring for a table automatically deploys freshness and volume metrics for this table.
+
+## Bigconfig
+
+Additional and custom monitors can be defined in a [Bigconfig](https://docs.bigeye.com/docs/bigconfig#example-template) `bigconfig.yml` file that is stored in the same directory as the table query. Bigconfig allows users to deploy other pre-defined monitors, such as row counts or null checks on a table or column level.
+
+## Deployment
+
+To generate a `bigconfig.yml` file with the default metrics when monitoring is enabled run: `bqetl monitoring update [PATH]`.
+The created file can be manually edited. For tables that do not have a `bigconfig.yml` checked into the repository, the file will get generated automatically before deployment to Bigeye. Files only need to be checked in if there are some customizations.
+
+To manually deploy a Bigconfig file run: `bqetl monitoring deploy [PATH]`. The environment variable `BIGEYE_API_KEY` needs to be set to a valid API token that can be [created in Bigeye](https://docs.bigeye.com/docs/using-api-keys).
+
+The deployment of Bigconfig files also runs automatically as part of the [artifact deployment process](../../concepts/pipeline/artifact_deployment.md), after tables and views have been deployed.
