### Min time interval
A lower limit for the `$__interval` variable. Recommended to be set to write frequency, for example `1m` if your data is written every minute.
A lower limit for the [$__interval](/reference/templating/#the-interval-variable) and [$__interval_ms](/reference/templating/#the-interval-ms-variable) variables.
Recommended to be set to write frequency, for example `1m` if your data is written every minute.
This option can also be overridden/configured in a dashboard panel under data source options. It's important to note that this value **needs** to be formatted as a
number followed by a valid time identifier, e.g. `1m` (1 minute) or `30s` (30 seconds). The following time identifiers are supported:

### The $__interval Variable
This $__interval variable is similar to the `auto` interval variable that is described above. It can be used as a parameter to group by time (for InfluxDB), Date histogram interval (for Elasticsearch) or as a *summarize* function parameter (for Graphite).
This $__interval variable is similar to the `auto` interval variable that is described above. It can be used as a parameter to group by time (for InfluxDB, MySQL, Postgres, MSSQL), Date histogram interval (for Elasticsearch) or as a *summarize* function parameter (for Graphite).
Grafana automatically calculates an interval that can be used to group by time in queries. When there are more data points than can be shown on a graph then queries can be made more efficient by grouping by a larger interval. It is more efficient to group by 1 day than by 10s when looking at 3 months of data and the graph will look the same and the query will be faster. The `$__interval` is calculated using the time range and the width of the graph (the number of pixels).
