If you use the Swagger specification for generating code, you have to re-generate it and make the necessary adjustments. Issue The following metrics have been converted to histograms: grafanadatasourcerequest_total grafanadatasourcerequestdurationseconds grafanadatasourceresponsesizebytes grafanadatasourcerequestinflight grafanapluginrequestdurationmilliseconds grafanaalertingruleevaluationduration_seconds Issue In Elasticsearch versions 7.x, to specify the interval-value we used the `interval` property. In Grafana 9.1.0 we switched to use the `fixedinterval` property. This makes it to be the same as in Elasticsearch versions 8.x, also this provides a more consistent experience, `fixedinterval` is a better match to Grafana's time intervals. For most situations this will not cause any visible change to query results. Issue Labels prefixed with `grafana` are reserved by Grafana for special use. If a manually configured label is added beginning with `grafana` it may be overwritten in case of collision. The current list of labels created by Grafana and available for use anywhere manually configured labels are: | Label | Description | | -- | -- | | | grafana_folder | Title of the folder containing the alert. | Issue | In Prometheus, browser access mode was deprecated in Grafana 7.4.0 and removed in 9.0.0. If you used this mode, please switch to server access mode on the datasource configuration page. Issue Dropdown: New dropdown component. , Grafana/UI: Add ColorPickerInput component. , Plugins: Validate root URLs when signing private plugins via grafana-toolkit. ,
