Skyline Error reading Prometheus: Post "http://127.0.0.1:9090/api/v1/query": dial tcp 127.0.0.1:9090

I'm trying to setup a Skyline Deployment in the lab server where I have a standalone deployment. 

I've followed all the steps mentioned here - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FO2Rp9x31i0&t=54s 

However when I create a Data Source, it throws me an error 

"

Error reading Prometheus: Post "http://127.0.0.1:9090/api/v1/query": dial tcp 127.0.0.1:9090: connect: connection refused

"

I've tried using the <IP address>:9090 also prometheus:9090 ; still throws me the same error. 

Can anyone help ?

I just watched that video carefully and at 6 mins mark it says IF loopback IP does not work, to use the remote IP of the actual promethius server. Have you tried that?

Best,

Andy

@the_rock Yes, I tried the actual IP address both public and private. Both Grafana and Promethius are running on the same server. After digging deep I understood that the payload is different for on-prem and on AWS. We need to add access keys as well. 

However not sure which access ID/Key ; do we have to attach a role to the EC2 or not. I'm not sure. Not so clear documentation for the same. Nor a video showing the same.

Hi @_khard ,

Try to use the instructions for the AWS Managed Prometheus on your EC2 instance, https://docs.aws.amazon.com/prometheus/latest/userguide/AMP-onboard-ingest-metrics-OpenTelemetry.htm... then set it up on our payload.

I believe role is needed, yea.
