+{{% note %}}
+Although this function is similar to InfluxQL's [`SHOW SERIES CARDINALITY`](/influxdb/v1/query_language/spec/#show-series-cardinality),
+it works in a slightly different manner.
+
+`influxdb.cardinality()` is time bounded and reports the cardinality of data that matches the conditions passed into it rather than that of the bucket as a whole.

 Use a relative duration or absolute time. For example, `-1h` or `2019-08-28T22:00:00Z`.
 Durations are relative to `now()`. Default is `now()`.
