InfluxDB Internal Basics
InfluxDB Bare Bones Basics internal data explorer.

 + Lists Databases
 + Lists Measurements
 + Lists Retention policies
 + Lists Series
 + Lists Field Keys
 + Lists Tag Keys
 + Lists Tag Values

### TLDR; The main feature of this dashboard is that it shows data WITHOUT ANY CONFIGURATION for any InfluxDB instance.

# Introduction
This is the first dashboard I install every time I use Grafana with InfluxDB. In my opinion it should have been installed by default, or have been made available built into the "data explorer" tool. Why? Because I keep forgetting all the InfluxDB terms. What are tags, fields, series, retention policies and measurements? Am I supposed to just know that? </rant>

# Features

For the selected datasource:

 + Lists Databases
 + Lists Measurements
 + Lists Retention policies
 + Lists Series

For the selected datasource and database

 + Lists Field Keys
 + Lists Tag Keys

For the selected datasource, database and tag_key

 + Lists Tag Values

From this starting point you should be perfectly capable to browse your data further and create wonderful queries :D
