How to send a result from a query as a metric to vROps?

I'm running vRealize Operations 8.2 and vRealize Log Insight 8.2

I'm trying to send the result (number of hits) from queries in Log Insight as metrics in vROps.
The documentation states this is possible:
"You can configure vRealize Log Insight to send alert notifications and metrics to vRealize Operations Manager."

How do I do this?
I can't locate where in the Log Insight GUI I can send the result from queries as a metric. The only option is as an Alert.

Regards
Bernt

I've not looked into this much yet, but in VLI, under Administration > Integration > vRealize Operations , there is a check box for "Enable metric calculation"

The help text for this is "When enabled, Log Insight can optionally calculate and send metrics to vRealize Operations Manager. Metrics can be automatically mapped to a vRealize Operations Manager object based on a Log Insight field (e.g. hostname)."
