/api/v1/label/port/values <http://localhost:9090/api/v1/label/port/values> returns data for old timeseries because:
(1) those timeseries do exist in the database - even though they might not have a value at the current instant - and you might want to draw graphs of them. (2) you might have some active and some inactive timeseries both with the same label="value" If you want to find all label values for active series only, then you can make an instant query <https://prometheus.io/docs/prometheus/latest/querying/api/#instant-queries> for a specific metric and look at the labels returned: /api/v1/query?query=foo Just remember that if a particular endpoint has a glitch and is missed in a scrape, you won't see its labels. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Prometheus Users" group.
