Custom CloudWatch metrics fail to display data in Grafana

Merchants are unable to visualize custom CloudWatch metrics in Grafana, even when the data is verified to exist in the AWS console. Some users report that metrics appear in the autocomplete list but fail to load data points, while others encounter issues with wildcard queries and dimension ordering.

Unable to show custom metrics from CloudWatch in Grafana. Data is showing in cloudwatch… I get metric listing / auto complete but no data.

any custom metrics I choose don’t load any data points even though I can verify they have data.

Wildcards work perfectly fine in the AWS Cloudwatch console, but when I try to do the same in Grafana, I don’t receive any data.
