Grafana Scenes and Http Requests

Hi, we’re exploring usage of Scenes in Grafana. I’ve been looking through the documentation and I see examples for using the ScenesQueryRunner class to define how we can query to be used for a built-in panel, but I am having some trouble figuring out how I could use data from an http request for a custom scenes object that may be custom built or if we have to use something like Apache eCharts.

It also doesn’t look like we can use any plugins that are installed in Scenes.

Can I get some guidance?

Did you make any progress with this issue of using a http or REST type datasource in a scenes App?

It would be great if you are able share if you have something to contribute.
FWIW, I have a related question outstanding here: Defining data source and mapping columns for a working yesoreyeram-infinity-datasource in a Scenes App · Issue #1017 · grafana/scenes · GitHub

Hey @allomorphy1, we’ve since abandoned this approach since we couldn’t find documentation or support. If you don’t need Grafana Scenes, we’ve worked around the issue by writing HTML/CSS/Javascript for the Business Text plugin to get the job done.
