### Min time interval
> Only available in Grafana v6.5+.
A lower limit for the auto group by time interval. Recommended to be set to write frequency, for example `1m` if your data is written every minute.
This option can also be overridden/configured in a dashboard panel under data source options. It's important to note that this value **needs** to be formatted as a
number followed by a valid time identifier, e.g. `1m` (1 minute) or `30s` (30 seconds). The following time identifiers are supported:
| Identifier | Description |
| ---------- | ----------- |
| `y` | year |
| `M` | month |
| `w` | week |
| `d` | day |
| `h` | hour |
| `m` | minute |
| `s` | second |
| `ms` | millisecond |
