Data Source Permissions API

The Data Source Permissions is only available in Grafana Enterprise. Read more about [Grafana Enterprise]({{< relref "../enterprise" >}}).

This API can be used to enable, disable, list, add and remove permissions for a data source.

Permissions can be set for a user or a team. Permissions cannot be set for Admins - they always have access to everything.

The permission levels for the permission field:

• 1 = Query
