Plugin not working in Grafana snapshot #35

Closed MatinF closed 4 years ago

Hi there,

I'm trying to use the plugin as part of my Grafana dashboard. However, when I try to create a snapshot, the plugin returns an error - is this a general issue or specific to this plugin?

Looks like it is not installed, how did you install it ?

I encountered a similar problem at first, because on Grafana website, when you install plugin, it installed it on my "Grafana account" but not on the local Grafana. I solved this by installing from the terminal "sudo grafana-cli plugins install pr0ps-trackmap-panel" then "sudo service grafana-server restart".

I installed it via the plugin manager for my Grafana Cloud Starter account. This might be the reason - but is there a way to correctly install it for a hosted cloud account so that it can be seen in snapshots?

I can't reproduce here (snapshots work fine for me) so I'm assuming it's an installation issue.

For self-hosted instances, like @GeoffreyJohnen said, running grafana-cli plugins install pr0ps-trackmap-panel as the grafana user and restarting the grafana service should fix it.

I've never used the cloud account thing you referenced so you may have to check the documentation for that service to see if there's anything special you have to do to install plugins for it.
