Grafana Http API

[dirkbollmeyerexterna]

I am using Grafana 8.1.1 and Http API to get a dashboard via dashboard version API.
GET /api/dashboards/id/:dashboardId/versions/

The dashboard is returned, but the response does not contain an attribute “MetricNamespace” for a panel target of type Azure Monitor Datasource.

When using Settings/JsonModel of the dashboard in the UI it is existing.
It seams the GET method omits attributes of the dashboard json model.

Can you please share snippets of those two JSONs, @dirkbollmeyerexterna ?

You will see that MetricNamespace is only part if panelui
Also Top is not returned.
