 The ``ipc.message.gpu_size`` metric in the Glean SDK will now contain all the data coming exclusively from the GPU process.
 Similar definitions can be used for the other processes.
 
+Reporting a scalar
+==================
+Exfiltrating existing boolean, string or uint scalars, or adding new ones, is a relatively straightforward process made up of a few small steps.
+
+Tag scalars in ``Scalars.yaml``
+----------------------------------
+Accumulations to non-tagged scalars are ignored if streaming Telemetry is enabled.
+To tag a scalar you must add the `geckoview_streaming` product to the `products list <https://firefox-source-docs.mozilla.org/toolkit/components/telemetry/collection/scalars.html#required-fields>`__  in the `Scalars.yaml file <https://hg.mozilla.org/mozilla-central/file/tip/toolkit/components/telemetry/Scalars.yaml>`__ .
+
+Add Glean metrics to ``metrics.yaml``
+-------------------------------------
+The Glean SDK provides the `Quantity <https://mozilla.github.io/glean/book/user/metrics/quantity.html>`__, `Boolean <https://mozilla.github.io/glean/book/user/metrics/boolean.html>`__ and `String <https://mozilla.github.io/glean/book/user/metrics/string.html>`__ metric types to map Gecko scalars to.
+However, Gecko scalars lack the metadata to infer the Glean SDK destination type manually.
+For this reason, engineers must pick the most appropriate Gecko SDK type themselves.
+
+Read more about how to add Glean SDK metrics to the `metrics.yaml file <https://hg.mozilla.org/mozilla-central/file/tip/toolkit/components/telemetry/geckoview/streaming/metrics.yaml>`__ in the `Glean SDK documentation <https://mozilla.github.io/glean/book/user/adding-new-metrics.html>`__.
+
+.. important::
+
+    Every new or changed data collection in Firefox needs a `data collection review <https://wiki.mozilla.org/Firefox/Data_Collection>`__ from a Data Steward.
+
+Example: reporting the display width from Gecko
+-----------------------------------------------
+The first step is to add the relevant Gecko scalar with its streaming telemetry tag (i.e. ``geckoview_streaming``) in the ``Scalars.yaml`` file.
+
+.. code-block:: yaml
+
+  gfx.info:
+    display_width:
+      bug_numbers:
+        - 1514840
+      description: >
+        The width of the main display as detected by Gecko.
+      kind: uint
+      expires: never
+      notification_emails:
+        - gfx-telemetry-alerts@mozilla.com
+        - rhunt@mozilla.com
+      products:
+        - 'firefox'
+        - 'fennec'
+        - 'geckoview'
+        - 'geckoview_streaming'
+      record_in_processes:
+        - 'main'
+
+.. note::
+
+    Scalars with ``"release_channel_collection": "opt-in"``, or without a ``release_channel_collection`` specified in its definition are only collected on Gecko built for ``"nightly"`` and ``"beta"`` channels.
+
+Since this is a uint scalar, it can be added as follows to the ``metrics.yaml`` file:
+
+.. code-block:: yaml
+
+  gfx.display:
+    width:
+      type: quantity
+      description: The width of the display, in pixels.
+      unit: pixels
+      gecko_datapoint: gfx.info.display_width
+      description: |
+        Duration of a checkerboard event.

+      notification_emails:
+        - gfx-telemetry-alerts@mozilla.com
+        - rhunt@mozilla.com
+      expires: never
+
+Please note that the ``gecko_datapoint`` property will need to point to the name of the scalar exactly as written in the ``Scalars.yaml`` file.
+
 How to access the data?
 =======================
 Once a new build of Gecko will be provided through `Maven <https://maven.mozilla.org/?prefix=maven2/org/mozilla/geckoview>`__, the Android Components team will automatically pick it up.
