Create a data source
POST /api/datasources
Example Graphite Request:
POST /api/datasources HTTP/1.1
Accept: application/json
Content-Type: application/json
Authorization: Bearer eyJrIjoiT0tTcG1pUlY2RnVKZTFVaDFsNFZXdE9ZWmNrMkZYbk
{
"name":"test_datasource",
"type":"graphite",
"url":"http://mydatasource.com",
"access":"proxy",
"basicAuth":false
}
Example Graphite Response:
HTTP/1.1 200
Content-Type: application/json
{
"datasource": {
"id": 1,
"orgId": 1,
"name": "test_datasource",
"type": "graphite",
"typeLogoUrl": "",
"access": "proxy",

"jsonData": {},
"secureJsonFields": {},
"version": 1,
"readOnly": false
},
"id": 1,
"message": "Datasource added",
"name": "test_datasource"
}
Note: By defining
password
andbasicAuthPassword
undersecureJsonData
Grafana encrypts them securely as an encrypted blob in the database. The response then lists the encrypted fields undersecureJsonFields
.
Example Graphite Request with basic auth enabled:
POST /api/datasources HTTP/1.1
Accept: application/json
Content-Type: application/json
Authorization: Bearer eyJrIjoiT0tTcG1pUlY2RnVKZTFVaDFsNFZXdE9ZWmNrMkZYbk

"url": "http://mydatasource.com",
"access": "proxy",
"basicAuth": true,
"basicAuthUser": "basicuser",
"secureJsonData": {
"basicAuthPassword": "basicpassword"
}
}
Example Response with basic auth enabled:
HTTP/1.1 200
Content-Type: application/json
{
"datasource": {
"id": 1,
"orgId": 1,
"name": "test_datasource",

}
Example CloudWatch Request:
POST /api/datasources HTTP/1.1
Accept: application/json
Content-Type: application/json
Authorization: Bearer eyJrIjoiT0tTcG1pUlY2RnVKZTFVaDFsNFZXdE9ZWmNrMkZYbk
{

}
Update an existing data source
PUT /api/datasources/:datasourceId
Example Request:
PUT /api/datasources/1 HTTP/1.1
Accept: application/json
Content-Type: application/json
Authorization: Bearer eyJrIjoiT0tTcG1pUlY2RnVKZTFVaDFsNFZXdE9ZWmNrMkZYbk
{

"password":"",
"user":"",
"database":"",
"basicAuth":true,
"basicAuthUser":"basicuser",
"secureJsonData": {
"basicAuthPassword": "basicpassword"
},
"isDefault":false,

Example Response:
HTTP/1.1 200
Content-Type: application/json
{
"datasource": {
"id": 1,
"orgId": 1,
"name": "test_datasource",
"type": "graphite",
"typeLogoUrl": "",
"access": "proxy",
"url": "http://mydatasource.com",

"basicAuthPassword": true
},
"version": 1,
"readOnly": false
},
"id": 102,
"message": "Datasource updated",
"name": "test_datasource"
}
Note: Similar to creating a data source,
password
andbasicAuthPassword
should be defined undersecureJsonData
in order to be stored securely as an encrypted blob in the database. Then, the encrypted fields are listed undersecureJsonFields
section in the response.
