Not able to use Grafana variable in the collection field #31

Closed BbBaboo42 closed 6 months ago

I created a grafana variable named collection. In my panel I tried putting $collection in the collection field but it does not work. From inspecting the query it seems like it takes it as is (i.e "$collection"). What can I do?

This works: image

But this do not: image

Grafana v10.3.1 Plugin version: 0.2.0

I also tried ${collection} but it did not work either

The collection and database name fields currently don't support variables. I will look into supporting this later this week.

Wow if you could do it that will be so amazing! It will make my dashboards extremely powerful! Thank you very much!

Please try v0.2.0+rc5 which now supports variables in the database and collection fields.
