NAME

grafana-util-datasource-browse - Open a live datasource browser against Grafana with in-place modify and delete actions.

SYNOPSIS

grafana-util datasource browse [OPTIONS]

DESCRIPTION

Open a live datasource browser against Grafana with in-place modify and delete actions.

Use this when you want an interactive inventory view for inspecting, editing, or deleting live datasources.

BEFORE / AFTER

Before: you had to bounce between inventory pages, edit dialogs, and delete prompts to inspect a datasource.
After: one browser view keeps the live inventory in front of you and puts edit/delete actions next to the rows you are reviewing.

COMMON OPTIONS

--org-id: browse one explicit Grafana org.
--all-orgs: aggregate datasource browsing across visible orgs. Requires Basic auth.
Shared live flags: --url, --token, --basic-user, --basic-password.

SUCCESS CRITERIA

you can inspect the live list without losing context
edit and delete actions stay close to the rows they affect
org-scoped browsing is obvious before you change anything

FAILURE CHECKS

if the browser opens with missing rows, verify the org scope and the credentials used for the view
if edit or delete actions are missing, confirm that the account actually has permission to mutate datasources
if the org switch looks wrong, check whether --all-orgs or --org-id is being used intentionally
