  • Did you follow any online instructions? If so, what is the URL? https://marcus.se.net/grafana-json-datasource/variables

#2

@marcusolsson, any thoughts?

#3

Are you sure you’ve configured the JSON API data source? It looks from the logs like you’ve added the CSV data source?

#4

Yes, JSON (and I have setup a Panel that displays the data for the same Datasource in a Table). I actually have a Variable defined for a CSV Datasource which works (though I’m also not sure why the Datasource type would matter for a Variable).

Sample JSON is
{
“portfolios”: [
{
“name”: “TEST A”,
“key”: “TEST_A”,
“label”: “TEST A”,
“rating1”: “1.0”,
“rating2”: “5.0”,
“AAA”: “507741”,
“rating3”: “4.0”,
“rating4”: “5.0”,
“projects”: “1”,
“B”: “0”,
“url”: “https://aaa”,
“rating5”: {
“rating”: 1,
“projects”: 0
}
},
{
“name”: “TEST B”,
“key”: “TESTB”,
“label”: “TEST B”,
“rating1”: “2.0”,
“rating2”: “2.0”,
“AAA”: “144253”,
“rating3”: “2.0”,
“rating4”: “3.0”,
“projects”: “6”,
“B”: “7”,
“url”: “https://bbb”,
“rating5”: {
“rating”: 1,
“projects”: 0
}
}
]
}

I believe this has been fixed in a later version of the JSON API plugin. Could you try with a recent version, and see if that fixes your problem?
