* Explore: Remove datasource testing on selector - datasource testing gets in the way of fast query iteration: switching between datasources can take seconds - it should not be explore's duty to test datasources in the first place - removed the concept of datasourceError in Explore, should not be its concern - datasource erorrs will express themselves in query errors just fine - connection errors are still bubbled up - removed reconnection logic from explore, should not be its concern - missing labels in loki are still "visible" via an empty label selector - Loki and Prometheus treated connection errors differently than other datasources, making sure to pass through the original error message * Show datasource error in query field for prom/loki/influx * Removed connection test case, fixed disabled state
InfluxDB Data Source - Native Plugin
Grafana ships with built in support for InfluxDB (> 0.9.x).
There are currently two separate data sources for InfluxDB in Grafana: InfluxDB 0.8.x and the latest InfluxDB release. The API and capabilities of latest (> 0.9.x) InfluxDB are completely different from InfluxDB 0.8.x which is why Grafana handles them as different data sources.
InfluxDB 0.8 is no longer maintained by InfluxDB Inc, but we provide support as a convenience to existing users. You can find it here.
