Not found zabbix database

Grafana Configuration
1

Hi team,
Freebsd server 13, grafana lasted version and zabbix plugin lasted version.
Plugin installés and tenable but can’t found to add in database.

How was the Zabbix plugin installed? Was it through Grafana CLI or manually?

Can you confirm if the plugin is listed when you run:

grafana-cli plugins ls

Is the plugin visible in the Grafana UI under “Plugins”?

Are there any error messages in the Grafana logs? These can usually be found in /var/log/grafana/ or wherever your system stores service logs.

Which user is running the Grafana service? Sometimes permissions or environment variables can affect plugin visibility.

Also, just to clarify:
The Zabbix plugin for Grafana does not automatically connect to the Zabbix database directly.

Instead, the plugin connects to the Zabbix API (usually something like http://<zabbix-server>/api_jsonrpc.php). So when you’re adding the Zabbix data source in Grafana, you should provide:

  • URL: The address to your Zabbix frontend (with /api_jsonrpc.php at the end)
  • Username and password: A valid Zabbix user (can be read-only)
  • Zabbix API version: This is detected automatically
  • Trends and history settings: These are configured based on your Zabbix DB retention settings, but no need to give DB credentials

So you don’t connect directly to the Zabbix PostgreSQL or MySQL database — the plugin uses the API to fetch data.
