that one will automatically display the annotation in all the dashboard panels. This feature is designed to show annotations also visible in other Graph panels so would be confusing if the annotation table showed different annotations. In short, you have to go to your dashboard settings, and in the 'annotations' tab, create a new query.

You can do that in the dashboard annotation settings (Dashboard settings / annotations / edit) you can define tag filters. Annotations can be global annotations that can be shown on any dashboard by configuring an annotation data source - they are filtered by tags. Annotations are saved in the Grafana database (sqlite, mysql or postgres). Why is there no way to select what annotations query to use (e.g. This is the API documentation for the new Grafana Annotations feature released in Grafana 4.6. The table panel cannot disable the queries tab just because an option is selected. Why does it show metric query editors, this doesn't applyД«ecause of this a table option, the table can either take data from the global dashboard annotations. It's confusing that this is part of the transform option I agree. This feature is to show dashboard wide annotations. The fact that you have to select 'transform: annotations' is rather unintuitive, people would be looking for a datasource or query wherein which they can select annotations, they're not thinking about annotations. Agree that the table annotation feature is a bit confusing. To review, open the file in an editor that reveals hidden Unicode characters. Instead of render we should call () (only when transform changes to annotations) grafana-annotation.py This file contains bidirectional Unicode text that may be interpreted or compiled differently than what appears below. To fix this we need to check if we are switching to annotations transform: why does it show an alerting tab? this doesn't seem to apply to annotations?.why is there no way to select what annotations query to use (e.g.why does it show metric query editors, this doesn't apply.the fact that you have to select 'transform: annotations' is rather unintuitive, people would be looking for a datasource or query wherein which they can select annotations, they're not thinking about annotations.it won't show any data just yet, but when you save the dashboard and reload it, the annotations will show.go to viz options, and under transform select 'annotations'.As far as I understand the way to display annotations in a table in Grafana, is to:
