Previously, there was a service rule to configure one of three levels of information to be sent to Graphite/InfluxDB: Send nothing, send only value, or send value/warn/crit/min/max.

Now the rule is more fine-grained, so one can choose for each part of the metric if it should be sent or not. Furthermore, one can now send the unity of measurement, too.
