VictoriaMetrics accepts `limit` query arg for `/api/v1/labels` and `/api/v1/label/<labelName>/values` handlers for limiting the number of returned entries. For example, the query to `/api/v1/labels?limit=5` returns a sample of up to 5 unique labels, while ignoring the rest of labels. If the provided `limit` value exceeds the corresponding `-search.maxTagKeys` / `-search.maxTagValues` command-line flag values, then limits specified in the command-line flags are used.
By default, VictoriaMetrics returns time series for the last 5 minutes from `/api/v1/series`, while the Prometheus API defaults to all time. Use `start` and `end` to select a different time range.

* FEATURE: [vmagent](https://docs.victoriametrics.com/vmagent.html): add `-remoteWrite.headers` command-line option for specifying optional HTTP headers to send to the configured `-remoteWrite.url`. For example, `-remoteWrite.headers='Foo:Bar^^Baz:x'` would send `Foo: Bar` and `Baz: x` HTTP headers with every request to `-remoteWrite.url`. See [this feature request](https://github.com/VictoriaMetrics/VictoriaMetrics/issues/2805).
* FEATURE: [vmagent](https://docs.victoriametrics.com/vmagent.html): push per-target `scrape_samples_limit` metric to the cofigured `-remoteWrite.url` if `sample_limit` option is set for this target in [scrape_config](https://prometheus.io/docs/prometheus/latest/configuration/configuration/#scrape_config). See [this feature request](https://github.com/VictoriaMetrics/operator/issues/497).
* FEATURE: [vmagent](https://docs.victoriametrics.com/vmagent.html): attach node-level labels to [kubernetes_sd_config](https://prometheus.io/docs/prometheus/latest/configuration/configuration/#kubernetes_sd_config) targets if `attach_metadata: {"node": true}` is set for `role: endpoints` and `role: endpointslice`. This is a feature backport from Prometheus 2.37 - see [this pull request](https://github.com/prometheus/prometheus/pull/10759).
* FEATURE: [vmagent](https://docs.victoriametrics.com/vmagent.html): add ability to specify additional HTTP headers to send to scrape targets via `headers` section in `scrape_configs`. This can be used when the scrape target requires custom authorization and authentication like in [this stackoverflow question](https://stackoverflow.com/questions/66032498/prometheus-scrape-metric-with-custom-header). For example, the following config instructs sending `My-Auth: top-secret` and `TenantID: FooBar` headers with each request to `http://host123:8080/metrics`:

* FEATURE: add ability to specify additional request param `limit` to `api/v1/series` endpoint. This can be used if you want to limit the number of series from this api and flag `-search.maxSeries` returns more data than needed. See [this feature request](https://github.com/VictoriaMetrics/VictoriaMetrics/issues/2841).
