Description

Ref: https://github.com/influxdata/EAR/issues/2834

When displaying the result of the data in a flux query, we may filter out some of the data for performance reasons. Probably worth mentioning this, as it can seem as if the results are unpredictable. The intent of that view is to show you the shape of the data, not all the data returned (for high volume responses).

Specifically, we limit you to a maximum of 100 results per series. Behind the scenes, the code adds |> limit(n: 100) to every query, so that we don't overwhelm the browser.

If you want to see all the data, there is an option to download to CSV that doesn't limit the query response.
