Thanks for this! Just what I needed

Example sink (New Relic) for future reference / other people stumbling upon this -

[sinks.new_relic_metrics]
  # General
  type = "new_relic"
  inputs = ["org_metrics"] 
  compression = "gzip"
  region = "${NEW_RELIC_REGION}"
  account_id = "${NEW_RELIC_ACCOUNT_ID}"
  api = "metrics" 
  # Key: ${NEW_RELIC_LICENSE_KEY-$NEW_RELIC_INSERT_KEY}
  ${NEW_RELIC_LICENSE_KEY+license_key = \"$NEW_RELIC_LICENSE_KEY\"}
  ${NEW_RELIC_INSERT_KEY+insert_key = \"$NEW_RELIC_INSERT_KEY\"}

Getting a 401 from the prometheus endpoint, anyone else ran into this?

source{component_kind="source" component_id=better_stack_org_metrics component_type=prometheus_scrape component_name=better_stack_org_metrics}: vector::internal_events::http_client_source: HTTP error response. url=https://api.fly.io/prometheus/personal/federate stage="receiving" error_type="request_failed" error_code=http_response_401 internal_log_rate_limit=true
