Data source fails with "Access Denied", except in Alerts

@jangaraj You recently closed my post and said to use this as an existing topic, however this is not the same as my post.
I am new to the Grafana forums, Can you guide me on how to proceed next?
I don’t think this is the same issue and would like to open another topic again. (In the grafana pdc tab, i have 0 clients connected even though the grafana pdc agent is still running. Thus i don’t think this is the same.)
