Dashboard instructions

I'm having trouble displaying the fake data in my grafana dashboard. After adding the datasource I tried adding another row in the dashboard with a graph. When editing the metrics from the random walk to the datasource I added, there is nothing being displayed. Anyone know what I'm missing?

Are you sure the datasource is added properly? (Check if the URL you have given is http://localhost:3333)
Also, check for Grafana's time.
It looked something like this for me:

series.txt
For anyone coming here trying to get this datasource to work with grafana 5.x, grafana expects the timestamp to be in milliseconds, but the series.json contains timestamps in the seconds format.

Changing series.json to what I've attached will get the datasource to work with 5.x
