who should I contact to get support ? @MariusBrill I'm sorry if it's not you. Just I need the right direction.

Hi @AmilaDevops,

The Dashboard you are using uses an outdated version of the panel. I suggest to just use the latest version you can find on this repository. The great benefit is that this version already inlcudes an example mapping aswell as example data (which you do net need to import).

All you need to do is to switch on the "show dummy data"-toggle in the panel options and a graph will appear.

Hi @AmilaDevops ,

So could you provide some guidance @MariusBrill, from here how can I go to the next level ? and start my own graph and show my snmp metrics data which is in my Influxdb data source ?

You need to adjust the settings of the graph according to your influx data. It may help if you have a look at the dummy data used and compare it to the settings that appear as soon as you activate the dummy data toggle. For further information, the readme should serve your needs. If there is anything unclear in the readme, please let me know so we can update it accordingly.

Can I use the same example graph to import my real time data ?

No - the example-data is hardcoded into the project.

At the moment I have a "InfluxDB Error" which is i'm not sure what exactly the error is, my influxdb data source is running successfully and it has snmp data already.

Since this issue appears to be linked to Influx rather than the graph there is nothing much i can help you with that. What helped me from time to time is to check the "network" tab in the dev-tools of my browser. Most of the time you get a more speaking error message from the failed requests to your Influx Database.

I hope this helps you. If there are any more questions feel free to ask!

Greetings Marius

hi @MariusBrill thanks for your commitment and answers, yes I would love to follow your guidelines. Since I'm having Influxdb datasource could you tell me or share me a link of influxdb real time series data example ?

do you know what influxdb tables should I use to query data ?

HI @AmilaDevops,

unfortunately as for now, i can't help you with such a database. However, if you find such a datasource, could you share it in this issue? Maybe it could help other users.

Greetings Marius
