Response String from Blackbox Exporter.

[yagyans...@gmail.com]

Hi. Is it possible to get the response string given by the endpoint? I know we can get the RT, Response Code etc. but hasn't been able to get the response string. Please help if this can be done.

Thanks in advance!

Prometheus only supports using numbers as the values for time series.

However it is possible to use modules in the blackbox exporter to check the response of a request.

Would be very helpful if you can shed a little light on how to proceed with that?
