I am going to use the template provided but briefly I will say that I tried to search for a Discord community or something to hopefully have a conversation but I had no luck. I am floundering inside the documentation, it is over my head.

What Grafana version and what operating system are you using?
-
What are you trying to achieve?
Path of Exile is a video game that has an API. A 3rd party website uses that data to create market data. That api is located at poe.ninja I am trying to get this information into Grafana so that I can visualize and manipulate it to generate things like profit margins on trades in the game or combine multiple different parts of data into one piece of information like a commonly used item in the game and various market information about it. -
How are you trying to achieve it?
So far I am able to use Insomnia REST to somehow get information from some URLs like “https://poe.ninja/api/data/getindexstate?” and “https://poe.ninja/api/data/currencyoverview?league=Sanctum&type=Currency&language=en” I can view what is sent back from the GET request but so far my attempts at getting this data returned to me inside of Grafana has failed. I have tried using the HTTP API plugin and the SimpleJson plugins but to be honest I am not sure how to configure them in a way that gets me the information I am looking for. When I add the data source and then hit explore and runs queries it returns nothing. I am positive this is user error. It seemed like it would be a simple task when I found Grafana on YouTube but I can’t even get started. -
What happened?
-
What did you expect to happen?
I expected to get spreadsheet like information in grafana that I could interact with. -
Can you copy/paste the configuration(s) that you are having problems with?
I am not sure it is even starting the process so I doubt it’d be helpful. -
Did you receive any errors in the Grafana UI or in related logs? If so, please tell us exactly what they were.

Did you follow any online instructions? If so, what is the URL?
