Description

Is it possible to expose metrics without timestamps?
We are trying to use a metric exported using stackdriver exporter in HPA through kubernetes prometheus adapter, and all other metrics that we have works, except this one, and the only difference we see is that it's timestamped.

https://github.com/prometheus-community/stackdriver_exporter/issues/58

Is it possible to disable this?
I couldn't find an option like that in code.

Research direction

The issue names no files or tests; start by locating where the Stackdriver exporter formats metric timestamps and read the linked stackdriver_exporter issue #58 for context. Done means the timestamp behavior can be controlled as requested and the resulting metrics work with the stated Kubernetes Prometheus adapter use case.
