TLDR; The main feature of this dashboard is that it shows data WITHOUT ANY CONFIGURATION for any InfluxDB instance.

Introduction

This is the first dashboard I install every time I use Grafana with InfluxDB. In my opinion it should have been installed by default, or have been made available built into the “data explorer” tool. Why? Because I keep forgetting all the InfluxDB terms. What are tags, fields, series, retention policies and measurements? Am I supposed to just know that?

Features

For the selected datasource:

  • Lists Databases
  • Lists Measurements
  • Lists Retention policies
  • Lists Series

For the selected datasource and database

  • Lists Field Keys
  • Lists Tag Keys

For the selected datasource, database and tag_key

  • Lists Tag Values

From this starting point you should be perfectly capable to browse your data further and create wonderful queries :D
