How to view Azure Advisor capacity metrics?


I am writing a capacity planning document and some of the information I would like to gather is resource CPU utilization, memory, network, disk, etc..

I've come across Azure Advisor, and I love the PDF/CSV it provides. However, I am curious as to how this person here was able to get a more detailed view showing columns that include CPU utilization, memory, and network which I don't see when I navigate to Azure Advisor...

This is all I'm able to see:

This is what i would like to see:

    UPDATE :

    Is there another Azure service that can provide similar capacity metrics for all VMs in this case instead of advisor?

    Yes we can use Metrics service from Azure portal using our resource group and subscription to check the capacity metrics for all of our created VMs by adding SCOPE and add filter according to your requirement enter image description here

    Note: Memory usage is in preview, it's not suggested for production use as of now.
