Authentication to data source failed even though authentication is turned off

Grafana Authentication
1

I’m running Grafana 10.4.3 on Ubuntu 20.04.6. It’s part of the setup for the perfsonar network measurement package, which uses Opensearch to collect data. However, no data is currently being displayed: instead, every panel has the error “Opensearch error: authentication to data source failed”. Which is strange, because the provisioning of the data source (the configuration file is below) sets basicAuth to false, so there shouldn’t be any authentication necessary. I turned on debugging for the log, but all I see are lines like this:

logger=data-proxy-log userId=1 orgId=1 uname=admin path=/api/datasources/proxy/uid/f990c0c6-a920-41c2-8b3e-a43e6ff9234a/_msearch remote_addr=128.119.202.246 referer="https://argus-t1.net2.mghpcc.org/grafana/d/ff439cb3-6042-43b5-a999-674681d80395/perfsonar-main?orgId=1" t=2024-08-26T17:36:55.424182584Z level=info msg="Authentication to data source failed" body= statusCode=401

The web interface also shows all the authentication options for the data source are off, so I don’t think that this is being overwritten somewhere. Any advice would be very welcome!

thanks,
