It has been an issue for a long time to use this SDK with structured data in Grafana. There are two parts to it:

  • There is no way to express certain things in Go easily that we can do with JSONs. Go 1.18 is around the corner which has support for generics so I propose moving to that ASAP
  • Lack of schema in Grafana. Even though you can generate any kind of value with the SDK but does that value make sense to Grafana itself? This ideally should be solved in Grafana with Cue or something? Also, perhaps we could automatically generate what values don't make sense by generating random dashboards and checking whether there are any JS errors in the console when opening that dashboard?
