Grafana Integration

Grafana is an open-source analytics and interactive visualization platform. It provides charts, graphs, and alerts for monitoring data from various sources.

Configuration Parameters​

Required credentials to connect to Grafana:

  • Grafana URL: Your Grafana instance URL (e.g., https://grafana.company.com)
  • API Key: Generated from Grafana with viewer role

How to Generate an API Token (Service Account)​

  1. In Grafana, log in with an account that can manage service accounts.
  2. In the left menu, go to Administration → Users and access → Service accounts.
  3. Click New service account, give it a name (for example opsimate-alerts), and create it.
  4. Open the new service account and click Generate token.
  5. Choose a Viewer-level scope (or the minimal permissions you need) and an expiration time.
  6. Copy the generated token once and paste it into the API Key field in OpsiMate’s configuration.
  7. Save your settings in OpsiMate.

Alerts​

  • OpsiMate pulls alerts from Grafana, so alert rules defined in Grafana automatically surface inside OpsiMate.
  • Receive Grafana alerts in OpsiMate
