Once identified, GitLab then needs to be able to map the data to a particular environment. In order to isolate and only display relevant metrics for a given environment, GitLab needs a method to detect which labels are associated. To do that, -GitLab will look for the required metrics which have a label that -matches the [$CI_ENVIRONMENT_SLUG][ci-environment-slug]. - -For example if you are deploying to an environment named `production`, there must be a label for the metric with the value of `production`. +GitLab uses the defined queries and fills in the environment specific variables. Typically this involves looking for the [$CI_ENVIRONMENT_SLUG](https://docs.gitlab.com/ee/ci/variables/#predefined-variables-environment-variables), but may also include other information such as the project's Kubernetes namespace. Each search query is defined in the [exporter specific documentation](#prometheus-metrics-library). ## Adding to the library |
