Hello @fifofonix thanks for reporting the need for this feature.
I've never thought about authentication. I'll try to see how to do that.
To read :
Requires to switch to an "app plugin".
Things to dig :
Less complex but not secure at all (but at least password won't be shown in grafana) :
https://aaa:bbb@...
Would be great to get authenticated URL support other than by hard-coding credentials into the panel.
Not sure whether there is a way to create a generic grafana http datasource plugin using the proxy stuff here: https://grafana.com/docs/grafana/latest/developers/plugins/add-authentication-for-data-source-plugins/
And then to have this plugin invoke the accompanying proxied API?
