Can we add new tag to existing datapoints in OpenTSDB?

[paresh...@flutura.com]

Hi 

I need to add new tag(key,val) after inserting datapoints in OpenTSDB. The purpose is to add some new tags, that are derived from captured data(recently captured data). Is there a way to do that?

Please help.

Did you find an answer to this ? I am trying to do the same thing and have not been able to find an answer.

Hi, unfortunately we don't support that behavior right now. You'd either have to:

1) Read out the data, modify it, then write a new time series

2) Use the built-in metadata facility to tag time series
