Grafana add Prometheus datasource, no access option

Ok, so I'm not a devops guy. I downloaded the latest image of grafana (6.6.0 atm). Adding a prometheus data sources ended up with 502 Bad Gateway. What I've seen different than the tutorial is that there is no "Access" option anymore. Checking http://localhost:3000/api/datasources/ I've seen that my data source has 'proxy' access by default.

enter image description here

Then I switched to an older version of grafana (6.4.0) which has the possibility to change access and everything went ok. enter image description here Anyone knows how to select other access type in the newer versions of grafana? I checked their docs but everything seemed outdated

When the Prometheus datasource config editor was migrated to React (as part of this PR https://github.com/grafana/grafana/pull/20248) the Access select option was not included. There is also this open issue https://github.com/grafana/grafana/issues/12757 that opened a discussion about dropping the support for the ES browser access (and potentially other data sources).

In the meantime, you could provision your datasource(s) using a config file (see https://grafana.com/docs/grafana/latest/administration/provisioning/#example-datasource-config-file) and specify the proper value for the access key.

Other option is to use the REST endpoint and modify your datasource in a similar way (see https://grafana.com/docs/grafana/latest/http_api/data_source/#update-an-existing-data-source).
