Looking at the source of that dashboard, all the queries are filtered
against
{job=~'$JobName',instance=~'$Device'
and the way the JobName values are chosen is from this query:
"name": "JobName",
"options": [],
"query": {
"query": "label_values(ssCpuUser, job)",
"refId": "StandardVariableQuery"
},
I have no idea what the "ssCpuUser" metric is, but if you're not collecting
that metric, this dashboard won't show you anything.
It looks like it's a vendor-specific MIB from the net-snmp (ucdavis) MIB
tree:
