Selecting value from query variable dropdown results in multiple other panels running queries

Grafana
1

Hello,

I’m running Grafana 8.0.2 on CentOS 7.9.

I have a query variable that contains multiple values and is referenced in a single panel on the dashboard. (The variable is used as part of a mysql query).

When I choose a different value for this variable from the dropdown menu, I see the panel issue a new sql query as expected.

However a number of other panels also issue their sql queries again. But these panel don’t reference the query variable I changed in any way.

I would expect only the panel that referenced the variable run a new query. Why might the other panels be re-running their queries too?

Thanks!
