Description

__Steps to reproduce:__

4. Attempt to create a dashboard panel with data from my InfluxDB data source

__Expected behavior:__
I would expect to be able to query data from the InfluxDB Cloud data source (the default `Website Monitoring Bucket` bucket).

__Actual behavior:__
I get an error in Grafana when I attempt to build a query stating:

```
InfluxDB Error: database not found: Website Monitoring Bucket
```

Any help is appreciated,
Martin

Research direction

No repository file, test, or entry point is identified in the report. First reproduce the Grafana Cloud connection to the InfluxDB Cloud Website Monitoring Bucket and inspect the data-source configuration and resulting error; done means the bucket can be queried without the database-not-found error.
