 * FEATURE: add `-search.setLookbackToStep` command-line flag, which enables InfluxDB-like gap filling during querying. See [these docs](https://docs.victoriametrics.com/guides/migrate-from-influx.html) for details.
 * FEATURE: [vmui](https://docs.victoriametrics.com/#vmui): add an UI for [query tracing](https://docs.victoriametrics.com/#query-tracing). It can be enabled by clicking `enable query tracing` checkbox and re-running the query. See [this feature request](https://github.com/VictoriaMetrics/VictoriaMetrics/issues/2703).
 * 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): 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`:
