Alternatively you can browse to the built in Netdata API in your browser `http://[Netdata_Instance]:19999/api/v1/allmetrics?format=json` and search for the `data_group` identified in the Netdata frontend.

```JSON
"system.load": {
"name":"system.load",
"context":"system.load",
"units":"load",
"last_updated": 1558446920,
"dimensions": {
"load1": {
"name": "load1",
"value": 0.1250000
},
"load5": {
"name": "load5",
"value": 0.1290000
},
"load15": {
"name": "load15",
"value": 0.1430000
}
}
},
```

Once the `data_group` and the `element` have been identified from the JSON it can be configured as per the example below.
