Create project id as a variable

  • What Grafana version and what operating system are you using?
    Grafana version is 10.0.3 and OS is Ubuntu

  • What are you trying to achieve?
    I want to create a variable.

  • How are you trying to achieve it?
    The service account which I am using as JWT token for Bigquery has access to different projects our GCP account. While creating a variable I selected “query”. In the query field I gave a piece of code. So when I choose the project, that project name should be replaced in the piece of code which I gave and display the respective data.

  • What happened?
    There is no text field to give a name for the variable. Eg. $projectid

  • What did you expect to happen?
    when I choose the project, that project name should be replaced in the place of $projectid in piece of code which I gave and display the respective data.

  • Can you copy/paste the configuration(s) that you are having problems with?

  • Did you receive any errors in the Grafana UI or in related logs? If so, please tell us exactly what they were.
    Invalid project ID ‘$projetid’. Project IDs must contain 6-63 lowercase letters, digits, or dashes. Some project IDs also include domain name separated by a colon. IDs must start with a letter and may not end with a dash., invalid

  • Did you follow any online instructions? If so, what is the URL?

I was trying to get the list of GCP Project IDs using the GCP Monitoring datasource but that was returning the GCP Project names instead. Using the GCP Logging datasource, it does return the Project IDs! :smile:
