Doesn't seem to work with cloudflare analytics and grafana cloud

[ShravanSunder]

What happened:
I'm trying to connect my grafana cloud instance with clickhouse over https. The clickhouse instance is from cloudflare
api.cloudflare.com/client/v4/accounts/xxx/analytics_engine/sql
where xxx is the account id.

• docs: https://developers.cloudflare.com/analytics/analytics-engine/grafana/

here is a screen shot

i've entered my authorization token as specified in the docs

What you expected to happen:
I expect the connection to work. instead i see plugin health failed

How to reproduce it (as minimally and precisely as possible):

Screenshots

Anything else we need to know?:

Environment:

• Grafana version: grafana cloud
• Plugin version: latest
• OS Grafana is installed on:
• User OS & Browser:
• Others:

Try splitting the values in the URL Cloudflare gives you:

The server address would be api.cloudflare.com
and then the HTTP URL Path would be the part after the host: client/v4/accounts/....analytics....
I can't recall whether it needs a leading slash or not, but try it without one first

Let me know if this works for you. The HTTP headers feature was specifically added to support this so I appreciate the feedback.

@SpencerTorres I split up the url. I get a different error. "connection timed out" when i save and test.

It first says "testing it could take a few minutes" then times out. i don't see any logs.

i tried with and without a leading slash

i'm using the default server port. The cloudflare instructions don't give one, but i'm assuming their using the https ports. I've pinged their 443 and 8443 ports and it seems to be valid.

this is my current setup

oh i opend dev tools, i do get this health check error from grafana browser console log

[SpencerTorres]

Good idea with the ports, I looked at the other plugin's UI and it seems like Cloudflare would be exposing 443 in this case.

In the network log screenshot you showed, the "response" tab would have more information about the error. My next guess is that this is some kind of auth or permission issue, perhaps similar to this one

@SpencerTorres
the below is for 443. Its a ping health check failed

{
  "message": "Plugin health check failed",
  "messageId": "plugin.healthCheck",
  "statusCode": 500,
  "traceID": "e723f7888bcea5d421af5bd6e0ab30cd"
}

if i use 8443 its an invalid port as you said {"message":"invalid port","status":"ERROR"}

i'm using the free grafana cloud instance fyi https://grafana.com/get/?pg=graf&plcmt=hero-btn-1

Still investigating this using my own Cloudflare account. This is the error it's returning on the plugin backend:

Raw error:

{"@level":"error","@message":"clickhouse: unsupported column type \"\\n\\t\\t{\\n\\t\\t\\t\\\"name\\\": \\\"timezone()\\\",\\n\\t\\t\\t\\\"type\\\": \\\"String\\\"\\n\\t\\t}\\n\\t],\\n\\n\\t\\\"data\\\":\\n\\t[\\n\\t\\t{\\n\\t\\t\\t\\\"timezone()\\\":\"","@timestamp":"2024-02-28T01:49:55.600261-05:00"}

Manually formatted/corrected error:

{
  "@level": "error",
  "@message": "clickhouse: unsupported column type",
  "@timestamp": "2024-02-28T01:49:55.600261-05:00",

            "type": "String"
          }
        }

    }
  }
}
