Grafana is not alerting on PromQL absent time series

Prometheus and Grafana Alerting for Absent Metric

There is no option to do that with absent. But you can do something similar with timeshift: create query which will group by selected labels for metric in the past (e. g. 1 hour shift) create query which will group by selected labels for current metric join these 2 queries and detect which timeseries are missing somehow - those are timeseries, which have disappeared meanwhile and you can alert on them That’s a suggestion , which can be implemented in one PromQL query.
