  • What Grafana version and what operating system are you using?
    tested on v8.2.5 and 9.3.6, CentOS

    Give non editors the chance to set min/max of y-axis via defined variables

  • How are you trying to achieve it?
    Setting up variables (Y_MIN/Y_MAX) and use them in panel/axis options (as “$Y_MIN”)

  • What happened?
    For (soft)min/max nothing happened. Label schows the text, but not the value of the variable.
    For the panel title (=Y_MIN) it is working!
