## create\_metric\_configs

```python theme={null}
def create_metric_configs(project_id: str,
                          run_id: str,
                          metrics: builtins.list[Union[GalileoMetrics, Metric, LocalMetricConfig, str]]) -> tuple[builtins.list[ScorerConfig], builtins.list[LocalMetricConfig]]
```

Process metrics and create scorer configurations for experiments or log streams.

This unified function categorizes metrics into server-side and client-side types,
validates they exist, and registers server-side metrics with Galileo.

**Arguments**

* `project_id` (`str`): The ID of the project
* `run_id` (`str`): The ID of the run (can be experiment ID or log stream ID)
* `metrics` (`builtins.list[Union[GalileoMetrics, Metric, LocalMetricConfig, str]]`): List of metrics to configure

**Raises**

* `ValueError`: If any specified metrics are unknown or don't exist in Galileo

**Returns**

* `tuple[builtins.list[ScorerConfig], builtins.list[LocalMetricConfig]]`: A tuple containing:
* List of ScorerConfig objects for server-side metrics configured in Galileo
* List of LocalMetricConfig objects for client-side metrics to process locally
