# Data Collector Functions  (Transact-SQL)
[!INCLUDE [SQL Server](../../includes/applies-to-version/sqlserver.md)]

  The data collector uses several functions to obtain information about data collection and data collector statistics, or to obtain data.  
  
 The following table lists the functions that the data collector uses.
