Frequently Asked Questions
- How do I connect Prometheus to Todün?
- Enter the HTTPS base URL for your Prometheus or compatible query API. Ask the Toduen operator to approve its hostname first. Add a bearer token, or a basic-auth username and password, only when your server requires them. Name each report and enter PromQL that resolves to exactly one numeric series. Start with sum(up) to check target availability.
- What Prometheus metrics can I track?
- Available metrics include value. Availability depends on the connected account and the provider API.
- What access do I need for Prometheus?
- Follow the credential instructions above and limit permissions and account access where the provider supports it. Treat your API credentials as secrets and revoke unused credentials in your provider account.
- Why might Prometheus data differ from the provider dashboard?
- Check the account, selected metric, date range, and time zone. Provider reporting delays and API limits can also affect which data is available. Compare the same period in Prometheus before troubleshooting the connection.
