Dashboard Query "B" wont execute if Query "A" is disabled

  • I’m running a standard grafana Docker instance which currently is grabbing version Grafana v12.3.2 (df2547decd)

  • I want to group Database queries into a few Charts and query them for visualization Charts, in order to lighten LTE Traffic

  • I imported my old Dashboard into this testing instance and am replacing the old, direct influxDB queries for a few questDB queries and all other charts to Dashboard Queries with transforms for filtering etc.

  • I expected that I could just add a new Query to the chart, so that I can come back to the old query if needed. But then I noticed, that it wasn’t enough to add a new query, but that I had to rename the new Query to come before the old (in alphanuperical Order), now disabled Query for Data to appear. The actual order in the query overview doesn’t matter

  • The Log from docker compose up questDB grafana are silent if I press refresh in the chart editor.

I consider this low priority but would appreciate some effort because I genuenly like this feature since it may allow for better load distribution in situation with many users acessing the dashboard simultaniously and need <10s load times
