 ## Usage Ping **(CORE ONLY)**
 
-> - [Introduced](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab/-/merge_requests/557) in GitLab Enterprise Edition 8.10.
-> - More statistics [were added](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab/-/merge_requests/735) in GitLab Enterprise Edition 8.12.
-> - [Moved to GitLab Core](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab-foss/issues/23361) in 9.1.
-> - More statistics [were added](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab/-/merge_requests/6602) in GitLab Ultimate 11.2.
-
-GitLab sends a weekly payload containing usage data to GitLab Inc. The usage
-ping uses high-level data to help our product, support, and sales teams. It does
-not send any project names, usernames, or any other specific data. The
-information from the usage ping is not anonymous, it is linked to the hostname
-of the instance.
-
-You can view the exact JSON payload in the administration panel. To view the payload:
-
-1. Navigate to the **Admin Area > Settings > Metrics and profiling**.
-1. Expand the **Usage statistics** section.
-1. Click the **Preview payload** button.
-
-You can see how [the usage ping data maps to different stages of the product](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-data/analytics/blob/master/transform/snowflake-dbt/data/version_usage_stats_to_stage_mappings.csv).
-
-Usage ping is important to GitLab as we use it to calculate our [Action Monthly Active Users (AMAU)](https://about.gitlab.com/handbook/product/metrics/#action-monthly-active-users-amau) which helps us measure the success of our features.
-
-### Request flow example
-
-The following example shows a basic request/response flow between the self-managed GitLab instance, GitLab Version Application,
-GitLab License Application and Salesforce:
-
-```mermaid
-sequenceDiagram
-    participant GitLab instance
-    participant Version Application
-    participant License Application
-    participant Salesforce
-    GitLab instance->>Version Application: Usage Ping data
-    loop Process Usage Data
-        Version Application->>Version Application: Parse Usage Data
-        Version Application->>Version Application: Record Usage Data
-        Version Application->>Version Application: Update license ping time
-    end
-    Version Application-xLicense Application: Request Zuora subscription id
-    License Application-xVersion Application: Zuora subscription id
-    Version Application-xSalesforce: Request Zuora account id  by Zuora subscription id
-    Salesforce-xVersion Application: Zuora account id
-    Version Application-xSalesforce: Usage data for the Zuora account
-    Version Application->>GitLab instance: Conversational Development Index
-```
-
-### Deactivate the usage ping
-
-The usage ping is opt-out. If you want to deactivate this feature, go to
-the Settings page of your administration panel and uncheck the Usage ping
-checkbox.
-
-To disable the usage ping and prevent it from being configured in future through
-the administration panel, Omnibus installs can set the following in
-[`gitlab.rb`](https://docs.gitlab.com/omnibus/settings/configuration.html#configuration-options):
-
-```ruby
-gitlab_rails['usage_ping_enabled'] = false
-```
-
-And source installs can set the following in `gitlab.yml`:
-
-```yaml
-production: &base
-  # ...
-  gitlab:
-    # ...
-    usage_ping_enabled: false
-```
+See [Usage Ping guide](../../../development/telemetry/usage_ping.md).
