MQTT Plugin disconnect

Grafana Plugin Development
1

Hi, I’m trying to visualize data from MQTT to Grafana via the plugin created by Grafana Labs. The plugin disconnects after 1-2 mins and I’m doing ‘Save and Test’ to refresh the data coming in the dashboard. The data is continuously coming in the MQTT channel but is not showing up on the dashboard. Is there a way to fix the plugin and keep the connection sustained?
Any ideas/suggestions would be helpful.

Thanks.

Hi. What do you mean by doing “save and test”? Is this in the datasource configuration page?

If you want the dashboard to constantly pull data you can set an auto-refresh in your dashboard and it should work as expected.

The datasource configuration page will only check if the connection works.
