Real-time experiment steering at European XFEL within Karabo

European XFEL is an X-ray free-electron laser user facility that generates high-throughput data streams. To ensure optimal steering of experiments, the real-time provision of compact metrics and live visuals for immediate feedback is critical. In this contribution, we describe how the facility's supervisory control and data acquisition system Karabo is exploited to this end. Two use cases, time-resolved X-ray absorption spectroscopy at the Spectroscopy and Coherent Scattering (SCS) instrument and X-ray photon correlation spectroscopy at the Materials Imaging and Dynamics (MID) instrument, exemplify typical workflows.
