[Question] Using template variables with SimpleJson #4668

Closed dannaril closed 8 years ago

dannaril commented 8 years ago

Hi All, I'm trying to use this plugin: https://grafana.net/plugins/grafana-simple-json-datasource and build my own data series. I've follow all the instructions of User Guide and I can plot the example series (Upper_25, Upper_50, etc) in the chart. However, when I try to use metrics or create a template variables, grafana is not recognizing it. Is it possible to grafana provide the same resources as we have using InfluxDB, or any other data source, using a SimpleJson source? Thank you very much! BR, Danilo

not sure the simple json datasource supports templating yet, please open an issue for that with that plugin

Hello Torkel, Thank you very much for your early reply. Just one more question, I'll need to use grafana to visualize my data which is on Redis database, my first try is to use a Simple Json data source. Do you know or you can recommend a good approach to have my Redis data using grafana tool? Thanks again! BR, Danilo
