To access Prometheus settings, hover your mouse over the **Configuration** (gear) icon, then click **Data Sources**, and then click the Prometheus data source.
| Name | Description |
| --------------------------- | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| `Name` | The data source name. This is how you refer to the data source in panels and queries. |
| `Default` | Default data source that is pre-selected for new panels. |
| `Url` | The URL of your Prometheus server, for example, `http://prometheus.example.org:9090`. |
| `Access` | Only Server access mode is functional. If Server mode is already selected this option is hidden. Otherwise change to Server mode to prevent errors. |
| `Basic Auth` | Enable basic authentication to the Prometheus data source. |
| `User` | User name for basic authentication. |
| `Password` | Password for basic authentication. |
| `Scrape interval` | Set this to the typical scrape and evaluation interval configured in Prometheus. Defaults to 15s. |
| `HTTP method` | Use either POST or GET HTTP method to query your data source. POST is the recommended and pre-selected method as it allows bigger queries. Change this to GET if you have a Prometheus version older than 2.1 or if POST requests are restricted in your network. |
| `Type` | The type of your Prometheus server, i.e `Prometheus`, `Cortex`, `Thanos` or `Mimir`. When this value is selected in the configuration UI, the Prometheus version field attempts to detect the version automatically using the Prometheus [buildinfo](https://semver.org/) API. Some Prometheus types do not support this API, and you will need to manually populate the version in those cases (e.g. Cortex). |
| `Version` | The version of your Prometheus server, note that this field is not visible until the Prometheus type is selected. |
| `Disable metrics lookup` | Checking this option will disable the metrics chooser and metric/label support in the query field's autocomplete. This helps if you have performance issues with bigger Prometheus instances. |
| `Custom Query Parameters` | Add custom parameters to the Prometheus query URL. For example `timeout`, `partial_response`, `dedup`, or `max_source_resolution`. Multiple parameters should be concatenated together with an '&'. |
| **Exemplars configuration** | |
| `Internal link` | Enable this option is you have an internal link. When you enable this option, you will see a data source selector. Select the backend tracing data store for your exemplar data. |
| `Data source` | You will see this option only if you enable `Internal link` option. Select the backend tracing data store for your exemplar data. |
| `URL` | You will see this option only if the `Internal link` option is disabled. Enter the full URL of the external link. You can interpolate the value from the field with `${__value.raw }` macro. |
| `URL Label` | (Optional) add a custom display label to override the value of the `Label name` field. |
| `Label name` | Add a name for the exemplar traceID property. |
