Grafana with Infinity and server api

[MarcusH]

Hi,

Started migrating our Grafana to Infinity and new server api.
Saw the techtalk video on youtube and the blog post nice work.

One thing i noticed was that you use $__from/1000 and $__to/1000 for seconds and was having issue it not working, found that Grafana has these variables i guess they are cleaner to use ${__fromseconds} and ${__toseconds}

Also trying to get relative time to work, i have dashboard on last 30min beacuse they are used on TV screens but some DCI just collects once a day and i have 12h relative on them, tried ${__fromseconds}-43200 but does not seem to work i get all 3 days that are in history.

is it supposed to calc before query or send it to api? URL is ?timeFrom=1760509472-43200&timeTo=1760511272

Running 5.2.6 and latest Inifinity

Actually when i think about it would be great if there is a parameter for objects history that just returns latest value regardless of time. That would solve a lot of time related challenges we have in Grafana for dashboards with lots of values with first calculation option.

Edit:

found it maxRows=1

Is it possible to create permanent auth token for new API server?

You can issue a token from Users and groups by right-clicking on a user.

I did that but after server restart everything got 401 unauthorized and i had to reissue token.
I see now that log states "New persistent authentication token issued for user grafana [10]" i guess something might be wrong with token save then.

I've checked (but on 5.2.8) - token survived server restart. You can check if your token appears in auth_tokens DB table.
