title: Can Grafana communicate with InfluxDB over https?
body: <p>I have a working setup where Grafana connects to an InfluxDB data source via http. I'd like to secure the communication between Grafana and InfluxDB by using <strong>https</strong>. I have enabled https in the InfluxDB configuration and can connect to the InfluxDB instance via the URL <code>https://&lt;domain_name&gt;.com:8086</code>. However, when configuring the https URL in Grafana the connection test fails. It appears as if Grafana can't connect via https.</p>
  
  <p>Many thanks for your advise.</p>
