    Hello @Smitamohapatra88 ,

    Thank you for reaching out to Microsoft Q&A platform. Happy to answer your question.
    Azure Monitor is the best way to interact with metrics, including charting them in the Azure portal, accessing them through the REST API, or querying them by using PowerShell or the Azure CLI.

    This article is a complete list of all platform (that is, automatically collected) metrics currently available with the consolidated metric pipeline in Azure Monitor.
    metrics-supported
    Please look in to the VMSS section for details.

    Another way is to use portal and is described here microsoft-azure-get-cpu-utilization-data-of-a-azure-vm-in-azure-portal
    If you are only looking for CLI way, then Get-AzMetric is command -MetricName "Percentage CPU"
    Actually, the information under Metrics in the portal is for the web role, get-azmetric

    PS D:\testdata> (Get-AzMetricDefinition -ResourceId $id).name

    Value LocalizedValue

    Percentage CPU Percentage CPU
