If your pipeline is running in detached mode, metrics are not supported to be queried. Refer this.

public class FlinkDetachedRunnerResult implements PipelineResult {

  FlinkDetachedRunnerResult() {}

  @Override
  public State getState() {
    return State.UNKNOWN;
  }

  @Override
  public MetricResults metrics() {
    throw new UnsupportedOperationException("The FlinkRunner does not currently support metrics.");
  }

  @Override
  public State cancel() throws IOException {
    throw new UnsupportedOperationException("Cancelling is not yet supported.");
  }

  @Override
  public State waitUntilFinish() {
    return State.UNKNOWN;
  }

  @Override
  public State waitUntilFinish(Duration duration) {
    return State.UNKNOWN;
  }

  @Override
  public String toString() {
    return "FlinkDetachedRunnerResult{}";
  }
}

However, I was able to view the metrics using slf4j reporter
