/api/v1/query requires time

[AlekSi]

http://prometheus.io/docs/querying/api/#instant-queries says

The current server time is used if the time parameter is omitted.

However, it is in fact required: {"status":"error","errorType":"bad_data","error":"cannot parse \"\" to a valid timestamp"}

https://github.com/prometheus/prometheus/blob/master/web/api/v1/api.go#L311 – no check for absent query argument.

Which version are you running?

The defaulting to now is a bit further up before entering the parsing function: https://github.com/prometheus/prometheus/blob/master/web/api/v1/api.go#L132-L140

Please re-open if you have more questions.

Sorry, you are right, I used 0.16.1, where time is mandatory argument. Thanks.
