Could you let me know how to make a regular interval on the left axis?

  • What Grafana version and what operating system are you using?
    Grafana v7.5.7

  • What are you trying to achieve?
    I am trying to make a regular interval (For example 10min 20min 30min 40min …) on the left axis rather than an irregular interval as shown below.

  • How are you trying to achieve it?

  • What happened?
    The left axis shows an irregular interval like 16.7min, 33.3min, 50min, 1.11 hour, 1.39 hour

  • What did you expect to happen?
    I am trying to make a regular interval (For example 10min 20min 30min 40min …) on the left axis

  • Can you copy/paste the configuration(s) that you are having problems with?

  • Did you receive any errors in the Grafana UI or in related logs? If so, please tell us exactly what they were.

  • Did you follow any online instructions? If so, what is the URL?

Hi @bryanheo,

Have you explored setting a min and max value or soft min/soft max for the y axis in the panel editor?

Hi @mattabrams
Thank you for your update.
Yes, I set the Y-min and Y-max but it does not show a regular interval (For example 10min 20min 30min 40min …)
