Telegraf configuration editing not possible on Firefox and Chromium

[alsargent]

Steps to reproduce:
List the minimal actions needed to reproduce the behavior.

1. Point Firefox browser to http://localhost:8086/
2. Click on Data on the left hand nav
3. Click on Telegraf on horizontal menu
4. Click blue "Create Configuration" button
5. Click "System" icon
6. Click blue "Continue" button
7. Name the configuration something unique. Say, "config 2".
8. Click blue "Create & verify" button
9. Click blue "Finish" button
10. Click name of newly created config
11. Try to edit the config (screenshot below). You can't do so on Firefox. (You can on Chrome.)

A user told me he tried on Chromium but wasn't able to. I haven't verified this myself.

Expected behavior:
Able to edit Telegraf config on Firefox as you can do on Chrome.

Actual behavior:
Can't edit config

Environment info:

• macOS Big Sur 11.2.2 (20D80)
• Firefox 86.0

• System info: Run uname -srm and copy the output here
• InfluxDB version: Run influxd version and copy the output here
• Other relevant environment details: Container runtime, disk info, etc

Config:
Copy any non-default config values here or attach the full config as a gist or file.

Logs:
Include snippet of errors in log.

Performance:
Generate profiles with the following commands for bugs related to performance, locking, out of memory (OOM), etc.

# Commands should be run when the bug is actively happening.
# Note: This command will run for ~30 seconds.
curl -o profiles.tar.gz "http://localhost:8086/debug/pprof/all?cpu=30s"
iostat -xd 1 30 > iostat.txt
# Attach the `profiles.tar.gz` and `iostat.txt` output files.

I have the same issue, and for me it also doesn't work with Chromium. Arch Linux, amd64, Chromium 89.0.4389.72-1, Firefox 86.0-2

@zoe1337 I dug into this with our product management team. It turns out that you can edit the configuration with InfluxDB Cloud, but not yet with InfluxDB OSS 2.0.4. InfluxDB OSS 2.0.5 is expected to have Telegraf editing, on par with Cloud. InfluxDB OSS 2.0.5 is expected to GA within the next month or so (that said, dates can always slip). In any case, we should see this issue resolved soon.
