### How to import data in Prometheus exposition format
VictoriaMetrics accepts data in [Prometheus exposition format](https://github.com/prometheus/docs/blob/master/content/docs/instrumenting/exposition_formats.md#text-based-format)
and in [OpenMetrics format](https://github.com/OpenObservability/OpenMetrics/blob/master/specification/OpenMetrics.md)
via `/api/v1/import/prometheus` path. For example, the following line imports a single line in Prometheus exposition format into VictoriaMetrics:

Extra labels may be added to all the imported metrics by passing `extra_label=name=value` query args.
For example, `/api/v1/import/prometheus?extra_label=foo=bar` would add `{foo="bar"}` label to all the imported metrics.
Extra labels may be added to all the imported metrics either via [Pushgateway format](https://github.com/prometheus/pushgateway#url)
or by passing `extra_label=name=value` query args. For example, `/api/v1/import/prometheus?extra_label=foo=bar` would add `{foo="bar"}` label to all the imported metrics.
If timestamp is missing in `<metric> <value> <timestamp>` Prometheus exposition format line, then the current timestamp is used during data ingestion.
It can be overridden by passing unix timestamp in *milliseconds* via `timestamp` query arg. For example, `/api/v1/import/prometheus?timestamp=1594370496905`.
