Creating multiple endpoints

By default, all metrics are exported at the default /prometheus endpoint. You can configure Prometheus to periodically scrape metrics from this endpoint using a specified frequency.

If you want to export metrics that should be exported with an alternative frequency, you can create a new endpoint and configure Prometheus to scrape metrics from this endpoint using an alternative frequency.

To use multiple endpoints, you first need to configure them in the prometheus.php config file. Here's an example, where we configure an alternative endpoint

// in config/prometheus.php
    'urls' => [
        'default' => 'prometheus',
        'alternative' => 'alternative-endpoint',
    ],

To expose a metric at the alternative endpoint, you can use the urlName method on the metric. Here's an example:

use Spatie\Prometheus\Facades\Prometheus;

Prometheus::addGauge('User count')
    ->urlName('alternative')
    ->value(fn() => User::count();
