Breaking changes

• CloudWatch: Pre Grafana 6.5.0, the CloudWatch datasource used the GetMetricStatistics API for all queries that did not have an ´id´ and did not have an ´expression´ defined in the query editor. The GetMetricStatistics API has a limit of 400 transactions per second. In this release, all queries use the GetMetricData API. The GetMetricData API has a limit of 50 transactions per second and 100 metrics per transaction. Also the GetMetricData API pricing is different from GetMetricStatistics. While GetMetricStatistics qualified for the CloudWatch API free tier, this is not the case for GetMetricData calls. For more information, please refer to the CloudWatch pricing page (https://aws.amazon.com/cloudwatch/pricing/). Read more about GetMetricData limits in upgrading to 6.5.
• CloudWatch: The GetMetricData API does not return metric unit, so unit auto detection in panels is no longer supported.
• CloudWatch: The HighRes switch has been removed from the query editor. Read more about this in upgrading to 6.5.
• CloudWatch: In previous versions of Grafana, there was partial support for using multi template variables as dimension values. When a multi template variable is being used for dimension values in Grafana 6.5, a search expression will be generated. In the GetMetricData API, expressions are limited to 1024 characters, so it might be the case that this limit is reached when a multi template variable that has a lot of values is being used. Read about the suggested workaround in upgrading to 6.5.

Breaking changes

Annotations

There are some breaking changes in the annotations HTTP API for region annotations. Region annotations are now represented
using a single event instead of two seperate events. Check breaking changes in HTTP API below and HTTP API documentation for more details.

Docker

Grafana is now using Alpine 3.10 as docker base image.

HTTP API

• GET /api/alert-notifications now requires at least editor access. New /api/alert-notifications/lookup returns less information than /api/alert-notifications and can be access by any authenticated user.
• GET /api/alert-notifiers now requires at least editor access
• GET /api/org/users now requires org admin role. New /api/org/users/lookup returns less information than /api/org/users and can be access by users that are org admins, admin in any folder or admin of any team.
• GET /api/annotations no longer returns regionId property.
• POST /api/annotations no longer supports isRegion property.
• PUT /api/annotations/:id no longer supports isRegion property.
• PATCH /api/annotations/:id no longer supports isRegion property.
• DELETE /api/annotations/region/:id has been removed.

Deprecation notes

PhantomJS

PhantomJS, which is used for rendering images of dashboards and panels, is deprecated and will be removed in a future Grafana release. A deprecation warning will from now on be logged when Grafana starts up if PhantomJS is in use.

Please consider migrating from PhantomJS to the Grafana Image Renderer plugin.
