Known Limitations

Grafana Cloud has a known limitation/issue where it will reject incoming metrics signals if the temporality setting for a newly ingested metrics signal differs from the values for the same metric instrument(s) that are already stored. The metrics instrument temporality settings can be controlled with the OTEL_EXPORTER_OTLP_METRICS_TEMPORALITY_PREFERENCE or OMNI_OTEL_EXPORTER_OTLP_METRICS_TEMPORALITY_PER_INSTRUMENT environment variable when creating the NVCF function.

Important

Azure Monitor does not have this limitation.
