  }
  
  

• Restart grafana server.

• Add zabbix datasource in Grafana's "Data Sources" menu (see Data Sources docs for more info) and setup your Zabbix API url.

• Important! Change Access to direct!

Note for Zabbix 2.2 or less

Zabbix API (api_jsonrpc.php) before zabbix 2.4 don't allow cross-domain requests (CORS). And you can get HTTP error 412 (Precondition Failed). To fix it add this code to api_jsonrpc.php immediately after the copyright

header('Access-Control-Allow-Origin: *');
header('Access-Control-Allow-Headers: Content-Type');
header('Access-Control-Allow-Methods: POST');
header('Access-Control-Max-Age: 1000');

if ($_SERVER['REQUEST_METHOD'] === 'OPTIONS') {
	return;
}

before

require_once dirname(__FILE__).'/include/func.inc.php';
require_once dirname(__FILE__).'/include/classes/core/CHttpRequest.php';

Full fix listing. For more info see zabbix issues ZBXNEXT-1377 and ZBX-8459.
