You can check `<BROKER_IP>:<PORT>/druid/v2/datasources/<YOUR_DATASOURCE>?interval=0/3000` for the dimensions and metrics that have been created for your datasource. Make sure that the name of the aggregators you use in your query match one of these metrics. Also make sure that the query interval you specify match a valid time range where data exists. Note: the broker endpoint will only return valid results on historical segments.
