Breaking changes

Removes support for storing/using datasource password and basicAuthPassword unencrypted which was deprecated in Grafana v8.1.0. Please use secureJsonData.password and secureJsonData.basicAuthPassword. Issue #49987

Removes the option to instrument HTTP request in Grafana using summaries instead of histograms. Issue #49985

Removes support for deprecated dataproxy.max_idle_connections_per_host setting. Please use max_idle_connections instead. Issue #49948

Removes the deprecated getFormStyles function from grafana-ui. Prefer using GrafanaTheme2 and the useStyles2 hook. Issue #49945

The configuration options auth.login_maximum_inactive_lifetime_days and auth.login_maximum_lifetime_days were deprecated in Grafana v7.2.0 and have now been removed. Use login_maximum_inactive_lifetime_duration and login_maximum_lifetime_duration to customize the maximum lifetime of a login session. Issue #49944

Removed the deprecated isFocused and isInvalid props from the InlineLabel component. These props haven't done anything for a while, so migration is just a matter of removing the props. Issue #49929

Removed the deprecated onColorChange prop from ColorPicker. Moving forward the onChange prop should be used. Issue #49923

/api/tsdb/query API has been removed. Use /api/ds/query instead. Issue #49916

onClipboardCopy and onClipboardError APIs have been changed such that the callback's argument is just the text that's been copied rather than the old ClipboardEvent interface. Migration should just be a matter of going from

<ClipboardButton
  {/*other props... */}
  onClipboardCopy={(e) => {
    console.log(`Text "${e.text}" was copied!`);
  }}
/>

to

<ClipboardButton
  {/* other props... */}
  onClipboardCopy={(copiedText) => {
    console.log(`Text "${copiedText}" was copied!`);
  }}
/>

The following RBAC action renames have been carried out:

• users.authtoken:update -> users.authtoken:write;
• users.password:update -> users.password:write;
• users.permissions:update -> users.permissions:write;
• users.quotas:update -> users.quotas:write;
• org.users.role:update -> org.users:write;
• alert.instances:update -> alert.instances:write;
• alert.rules:update -> alert.rules:write;
• users.authtoken:list -> users.authtoken:read;
• users.quotas:list -> users.quotas:read;
• users.teams:read -> replaced by users.read + teams:read

We've added a migration from the old action names to the new names and have updated our documentation. But you will have to update any scripts and provisioning files that are using the old action names. Issue #49730
