I have set up application monitoring by following this page 

https://confluence.atlassian.com/adminjiraserver0901/application-metrics-reference-1155492019.html 

However, I am not sure what are the units, for example  com_atlassian_jira_metrics_Mean is it in milliseconds or seconds ?

Those metrics listed on the page you referenced apply to Jira Server and Data Center, not Jira Cloud. Jira Cloud doesn’t expose the same Dropwizard-based application metrics or JMX endpoints, since Atlassian manages the infrastructure and performance telemetry internally. In self‑managed deployments, metrics such as `com_atlassian_jira_metrics_Mean` come from the Dropwizard metrics library, where latency and duration values are reported in milliseconds by default, unless otherwise documented.
If you’re running Jira Cloud, there’s no supported way to access those raw metrics. Instead, you can monitor performance using Atlassian’s [cloud status pages](
