I have these three options set, and I'm not seeing any http status code data in the output.  
addServicesLabels = true  
addEntryPointsLabels = true  
addRoutersLabels = true

I found [this issue](https://github.com/traefik/traefik/issues/156#issuecomment-221536251) from years ago on the subject but not much else.

Is there any way to have traffic report on http status codes?

Thank you!

The Prometheus metrics system does not include response codes by default. This can be added by adding a `fetch_http_metrics` metric to your `prometheus.yml file` like so: - job\_name: 'http\_metric' # snip metrics\_path: /metrics method: GET metrics\_ignore\_default\_targets: true # snip http\_requests\_total: summary\_fraction: 0.5 labels: - target: .metrics.http\_requests\_total
