Prerequisite

    You can use Prometheus Query Language (PromQL) to query metric data.

    • Metric and label filters: Configure Metric and Labels to filter metrics.

    • Operations: Click + Operations to add a function. This field can be used to calculate metrics based on functions, range functions, aggregations, and binary operations.

    • Query: Select a time range, and click Run query to query the traffic of external systems. Then, visualized graphs and lists appear below.

    Note

    PromQL allows complex pattern matching and queries. For syntax and query examples, see official Prometheus documentation.
