http://localhost:9090/metrics is the wrong place to look. This is the endpoint for metrics *generated by prometheus itself* (e.g. stats about the operation of its timeseries database).
To access the data stored within prometheus, you can use its HTTP API as documented here: https://prometheus.io/docs/prometheus/latest/querying/api/ - or you can go to its web interface at http://localhost:9090/ (which in turn talks to the HTTP API). This API is what Grafana also talks to. You'd need to point Grafana at http://127.0.0.1:9090/ only, and it will add the api path automatically. Do not append "/metrics". Apart from this: if you are able to see the metrics of interest in the Prometheus web interface, but have a problem with Grafana, the best place to ask for help is the Grafana community: https://community.grafana.com/. This is because Grafana is a completely separate project to Prometheus. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Prometheus Users" group.
