Thanks for the fast reply and sorry for my late response. We have a scraping on 15 seconds. My query interval is 30 min. So I should have data. And the Grafana dashboard below where I add difference(changed from delta) on legend values I see what I want. This difference from the Grafana panel is exactely what I am looking for and thought delta would give me.
Is there an alternative to delta? Like first-last? On Saturday, July 1, 2023 at 3:07:22 PM UTC+2 Ben Kochie wrote: > Grafana defaults to a "minimum step" of 15 seconds.
