The request function can be used to perform a remote call by specifying a BackendSrvRequest. To make the BackendSrv a bit easier to use we have added a couple of shorthand functions that will use default values executing the request.

Signature

Import

Remarks

By default, Grafana displays an error message alert if the remote call fails. To prevent this from happening showErrorAlert = true on the options object.

Methods

Special function used to communicate with datasources that will emit core events that the Grafana QueryInspector and QueryEditor is listening for to be able to display datasource query information. Can be skipped by adding option.silent when initializing the request.
