Alerting support with new alert system
Hi there,
Just wondering if this plugin (fantastic work btw) will be supporting the new unified alert system?
That would be an amazing feature!
any updates on this?
This would be really nice!
In order to support the alerting system we would need to rewrite the plugin to have a backend. It is purely frontend now. We are not planning to do that any time soon.
As Zoltan mentioned, we can't support public dashboard feature due to its frontend only design. Also rewriting this plugin to backend require huge effort also will come with lots of additional breaking changes due to incompatiable backend jsonata/jsonpath libraries.
Instead I would recommend switching to infinity datasource plugin which is now maintained by Grafana Labs. With the backend parser of Infinity datasource, you will be able to use backend operations such as alerting, public dashboards, recorded queries, private datasource connect, oauth2 authentication, etc.
