The InfluxDB API is running fine:
$ curl -sl -I http://myserver:8086/ping
HTTP/1.1 204 No Content
Content-Type: application/json
Request-Id: 6e88a0a0-5288-11e8-a203-000000000000
X-Influxdb-Build: OSS

But I cannot add InfluxDB as datasource, it keep saying “Network Error: Bad Gateway(502)” when I click “Save & Test”
I leave Auth option blank as by default InfluxDB disables authorization (should it be turned on?)
Btw, I’m using docker to run grafana and influxdb:
$ docker ps

You should create docker network where grafana and influxdb will be able to reach other.
Or publish app port and use host IP. Or start containers in host mode. Anyway docker networking doc will be good start point for you to understand pros/cons of all options.
