Showing the last value is fine too, as long as we can display it on a Grafana panel as a quick status display

Okay. This may actually be more of an enhancement than a bug, as Helm doesn’t currently support string values, but this does give more info to work with. Thanks.

@Mark Mahacek Please see this attached image.
We then want to "condense" it to a Single Stat panel which will show the latest string value.

String values don’t currently work like that. Only the most recent value is stored to disk. There isn’t one string per polling interval kept like numeric values.

Can you provide some more details on what your end goal is? How are you looking to use the string values?

Unable to retrieve string values from OpenNMS (polled via SNMP) using Helm on Grafana.
Helm only exposes rrdGraphAttributes but not stringPropertyAttributes.
