how to delete series on certain period on Prometheus

[maple.f...@hotmail.com]

Hi,

May I ask if Prometheus API support to delete series on certain period? like data with label job=xxx on last three hours. 

I found related API on https://github.com/prometheus/prometheus/pull/3425/files, but it seems that the API will be migrated to new version. But anyway I still can't find where to set time period on this API of delete action by glimpsing patch, so I wonder if I overlook something. Anyone can help answer that?

best regards.

Deleting series for time ranges is not supported.  Only the full series delete is supported.

I don't think so, but you could file a feature request here:

Hi,

Prometheus 2.0 has support for granular deletes :) Enable the admin API via: `./prometheus --web.enable-admin-api` and then send a POST request to:

`/api/v2/admin/tsdb/delete_series`, with the body of the format:

```

{

"min_time": "2017-11-15T00:0:0+00:00",

"max_time": "2017-11-15T00:37:20+00:00",

"matchers": [{

"type": "EQ",

"name": "job",

"value": "prometheus"

}]

}

```

The API will documented in a few days, sorry for the confusion.

Thanks,

Goutham.

hi Goutham,

when you do the docu could you please include some examples on how one would:

1.) erase ALL occurrences of a metric 

   like I have:

   zpool_capacity_percent{instance="host.na.me:9100",job="node",zpool="zpool_host"}

   and like to erase ALL "zpool_capacity_percent" timeseries across ALL instances and ALL zpools

2.) erase all "zpool_capacity_percent" for only label="<labelname>"

and: are there regex's allowed?

TIA

best regards
