When you configure a metric backend query, either as a graph line in the custom graph editor or in the special agent rule Metric backend (custom query), you no longer set how the raw OpenTelemetry samples are consolidated through the separate Aggregation lookback and Percentile input fields. Instead, a single inline control lets you pick the whole consolidation in one place and shows the current setting as a compact summary next to the query.
Your existing graph definitions and rules keep working unchanged, so there is nothing you need to adjust after the upgrade.
