## What it is
A Grafana data source plugin that lets you visualize data from JSON, CSV, TSV, XML, GraphQL, and HTML endpoints directly in Grafana dashboards. It supports flexible data transformation with JQ, JSONata, and UQL, plus a wide range of authentication methods, and is maintained by Grafana Labs.

## Use cases
- visualize data from a JSON REST API in grafana
- query a GraphQL endpoint and chart the results in grafana
- plot CSV or TSV data from a URL in a grafana dashboard
- connect grafana to an API that has no native datasource plugin
- parse XML API responses into grafana panels
- transform JSON API responses with jq or JSONata before charting
- add basic auth or bearer token API data to grafana dashboards

## When to choose
- you need to visualize data from a REST/JSON/CSV/XML/GraphQL API in Grafana and no native datasource exists
- you want flexible data shaping with JQ, JSONata, or UQL inside Grafana
- you need varied auth options (OAuth2, AWS/Azure/GCP, digest, bearer) against arbitrary APIs

## When to avoid
- a native Grafana datasource plugin exists for your data store, since it will usually be faster and more feature-complete
- you need heavy backend features like alerting or enterprise query caching without using the backend parser option
- your data source is not HTTP-based (e.g., direct database connections)
