Answer

Grafana getting started: Grafana dashboards can be imported through the Grafana UI. Click on the + icon in the sidebar and then click import. You can import a dashboard through the following options:

  • Uploading a dashboard JSON file, which is exported from the Grafana UI or fetched through the HTTPS API
  • Paste a Grafana dashboard URL which is found at grafana Dashboards, or a dashboard unique id into the text area.
  • Paste raw Dashboard JSON text into the panel area. Click load afterwards.
