Getting error message has label dimensions inconsistent with previously collected metrics in the same metric family

Executing stackdriver_exporter as:

stackdriver_exporter --google.project-id=myproject --monitoring.metrics-type-prefixes=serviceruntime.googleapis.com/api/request_count

Then running

curl localhost:9255/metrics

Gives me

An error has occurred during metrics collection:

2 error(s) occurred:

Is there any way to use stackdriver_exporter to grab those metrics?

Start by reproducing the issue with the stackdriver_exporter command and the curl localhost:9255/metrics scrape shown in the report. Inspect the metric collection path that emits the inconsistent-label error; done means the requested metrics can be scraped consistently or the limitation and supported configuration are documented.
