I've follow all the instructions of User Guide and I can plot the example series (Upper_25, Upper_50, etc) in the chart. However, when I try to use metrics or create a template variables, grafana is not recognizing it. \r\nIs it possible to grafana provide the same resources as we have using InfluxDB, or  any other data source, using a SimpleJson source?\r\nThank you very much!\r\nBR,\r\nDanilo"},"comment":{"url":"https://api.github.com/repos/grafana/grafana/issues/comments/209013799","html_url":"https://github.com/grafana/grafana/issues/4668#issuecomment-209013799","issue_url":"https://api.github.com/repos/grafana/grafana/issues/4668","id":209013799,"user":{"login":"torkelo","id":10999,"avatar_url":"https://avatars.githubusercontent.com/u/10999?v=3","gravatar_id":"","url":"https://api.github.com/users/torkelo","html_url":"https://github.com/torkelo","followers_url":"https://api.github.com/users/torkelo/followers","following_url":"https://api.github.com/users/torkelo/following{/other_user}","gists_url":"https://api.github.com/users/torkelo/gists{/gist_id}","starred_url":"https://api.github.com/users/torkelo/starred{/owner}{/repo}","subscriptions_url":"https://api.github.com/users/torkelo/subscriptions","organizations_url":"https://api.github.com/users/torkelo/orgs","repos_url":"https://api.github.com/users/torkelo/repos","events_url":"https://api.github.com/users/torkelo/events{/privacy}","received_events_url":"https://api.github.com/users/torkelo/received_events","type":"User","site_admin":false},"created_at":"2016-04-12T17:18:11Z","updated_at":"2016-04-12T17:18:11Z","body":"not sure the simple json datasource supports templating yet, please open an issue for that with that plugin"}}
