Hi, our company’ grafana has several hundreds datasources. I’m not sure how many of them are being used (by dashboards/panels/variables). Are there any existing methods or tools which can help to find out unused datasources so that we can delete them ? Thanks !

How to find out unused datasources?

Use GitHub - panodata/grafana-wtf: Grep through all Grafana entities in the spirit of git-wtf. and search datasource names. Or use Grafana API and search them in dashboard models (that’s what grafana wtf is doing )
