How did you import it? From where does this dashboard come, from another grafana server with same version? Was this dashboard in a different folder in the source grafana server?

How did you import it?
On the original dashboard I used the export button at the top and obtained the json file.
From where does this dashboard come, from another grafana server with same version?
Same grafana server, exported from one organization, imported in a different organization.

Was this dashboard in a different folder in the source grafana server? Imported to a different organization in the same grafana server.

Found the issue.
Turns out that there seems to be a bug in the dashboard.
In the panel view I need to click again in the drop down to select the Data Source and select InfluxDB even though it’s already there.
After re-selecting the InfluxDB as the data source the data is now showing in the panel.
