How to make a post request to add new metrics in Prometheus?

Question

Monitoring

Hello.
there was a desire to send metrics and their values ​​to prometheus using API requests.
Please share an example if someone has already managed to do this.

Answer 1

Prometheus works in pull mode, not push mode. He himself refers to the host and takes the metrics.
The push mode is needed only if there are short-term tasks. Then the metrics need to be sent to Pushgateway.
I advise you to read https://prometheus.io/docs/practices/pushing/
