+# getStats in WebRTC
+
+The WebRTC getStats API is specified in
+ https://w3c.github.io/webrtc-stats/
+and allows querying information about the current state of a RTCPeerConnection
+API and some of its member objects.
+
+## Adding new statistics to Chrome
+
+When adding a new standardized `RTCStatsMember` it is necessary to add
+it to the Chrome allowlist
+ chrome/test/data/webrtc/peerconnection_getstats.js
+before landing the WebRTC change. This mechanism prevents the accidential
+addition and exposure of non-standard attributes and is not required for
+`RTCNonStandardStatsMember` which is not exposed to the web API. \ No newline at end of file
