@vikram29694 Im getting the same error, did you find a solution ?

[vikram29694]

@RealPingu still facing same issue. Did you find any solution?

[RealPingu]

No sadly, I didn't use this implementation for what I wanted, in the end I downloaded the images with a request then I used python-docx-templates to replace them from a template.

I work on Linux, but I guess it might be similar for Windows, in the grafana.ini I modified the value rendering_ignore_https_errors = true under the [plugin.grafana-image-renderer] section.
Perhaps this will point you to where it might be for Windows?

@vikram29694 I think the error is because the reporter app does not have auth access to Grafana to download dashboards. Please check the new reporter app that can be integrated into Grafana as plugin app and hence no need to manage external auth and API tokens.
