instances defined in config.yaml do not load into ui tool at :8090 and prevent adding instances through the UI

I am trying to load an instance using config.yaml. Not only does defining an instance with PW2_CONFIG not work, but it prevents me from manually entering and instance with the exact same details through the UI.

Summary:

when I define config with PW2_CONFIG the instance doesn't show up in the UI.
only the unique_name defined in config.yaml shows in grafana but all metrics are dead.
If I have defined PW2_CONFIG with the config.yaml defined below pgwatch will not recognise manual entries.
if i comment out PW2_CONFIG I can define the instance through the UI and it works fine.

These are my settings.

docker-compose.yml

    pgwatch2:
        image: cybertec/pgwatch2-postgres:1.10.0
        container_name: pgwatch2
        restart: unless-stopped
        volumes:
            - ./local_docker/pgwatch2/config.yaml:/etc/pgwatch2-configmap/config.yaml
        # environment: 
        #     - PW2_CONFIG=/etc/pgwatch2-configmap/config.yaml
        ports:
            - "3010:3000"
            - "8090:8080"

i'm running these pg queries on the database after bootstrapping which enables monitoring only if I excluded PW2_CONFIG and I define my instance manually in the UI

CREATE ROLE pgwatch2 WITH LOGIN PASSWORD 's********1';
ALTER ROLE pgwatch2 CONNECTION LIMIT 3;
GRANT pg_monitor TO pgwatch2;   -- v10+
GRANT CONNECT ON DATABASE events_service TO pgwatch2;
GRANT USAGE ON SCHEMA public TO pgwatch2; -- NB! pgwatch doesn't necessarily require using the public schema though!
GRANT EXECUTE ON FUNCTION pg_stat_file(text) to pgwatch2; -- needed by the wal_size metric
CREATE EXTENSION IF NOT EXISTS pg_stat_statements; -- needed by the pg_stat_statements metric

config.yaml (based on this template - Ive tried to disable as much as possible)
