title: How to customize label from Netdata in Grafana
body: <p>I'm using netdata to monitor my instance and containers.<br>
  I use prometheus to query the data and I use influxDB to store it</p>
  
  <p>Netdata creates long chart name and I would like to reduce them to make my dashboard clearer.<br>
  I want the label to be the actual name of the containers :  </p>
  
  <ul>
  <li>nginx</li>
  <li>grafana</li>
  <li>netdata</li>
  <li>...</li>
  </ul>
  
  <p>But what I get is <code>cgroup_&lt;container_name&gt;.&lt;metric_name&gt;</code></p>

  <p>I can see that there is a <a href="https://github.com/grafana/grafana/pull/6627" rel="nofollow noreferrer">pull request</a> about legend formatting since 2016 but I was wondering if there is another solution.</p>
  
  <p>Maybe directly from Netdata? Or maybe using another tool such as Graphite instead of Prometheus?</p>
