- ``Min`` - Minimum of all values returned from metric query
- ``Max`` - Maximum of all values returned from the metric query
- ``Avg`` - Average of all values returned from metric query
- ``Decimals`` - Controls how many decimals are displayed for legend values
This means that if your series represents a rate, for example requests / second then the Total in the legend will
not represent the total number of requests. It is just the sum of all data points.
- ``Decimals`` - Controls how many decimals are displayed for legend values (and graph hover tooltips)
The legend values are calculated client side by Grafana and depend on what type of
aggregation or point consolidation you metric query is using. All the above legend values cannot
be correct at the same time. For example if you plot a rate like requests/second, this is probably
using average as aggregator, then the Total in the legend will not represent the total number of requests.
It is just the sum of all data data points received by Grafana.
