How does aggreagation work in graffana?

  • What Grafana version and what operating system are you using?

  • What are you trying to achieve?
    have a 2 minutes(low granularity) graph and then be able to aggregate that up for the per day view.

  • How are you trying to achieve it?
    Using grafana graphs and panels

  • What happened?
    I have a low granularity graph (at 2mins) that has one spike of value 3 but then when I want to aggregate this for a day view I don’t get 3, I get 5 and it is the same search just changed interval to 1d.

  • What did you expect to happen?
    I expect in the 1 day view graph to show 3, as a bar chart or line. No matter the visulaisation the value should be the same.


graphs are exactly the same with only difference being the change in interval.
graph on left shows value 3 at 2min granularity (interval set to auto)
grah on right has a value of 5(?) but what the x-axis o be in a d e.g. 01/06 (interval set to 1d)



basically I am trying work out why the value in right hand graph is not 3 and how to change the x-axis to a day view e.g. 01/06.
