+### Per-Queue Chart configuration
+RabbitMQ users with the "monitoring" tag cannot see all queue data. You'll need a user with read permissions.
+To create a dedicated user for netdata:
+
+```bash
+rabbitmqctl add_user netdata ChangeThisSuperSecretPassword
+rabbitmqctl set_permissions netdata "^$" "^$" ".*"
+```
+
+See [set_permissions](https://www.rabbitmq.com/rabbitmqctl.8.html#set_permissions) for details.
+
+Once the user is set up, add `collect_queues_metrics: yes` to your `rabbitmq.conf`:
+
+```yaml
+local:
+ name : 'local'
+ host : '127.0.0.1'
+ port : 15672
+ user : 'netdata'
+ pass : 'ChangeThisSuperSecretPassword'
+ collect_queues_metrics : 'yes'
+```
