Grafana Cloud
by Grafana Labs
Grafana Cloud is where many engineering teams look at metrics, logs and traces, and its HTTP API describes that work: dashboards and folders, alert rules, annotations, users and teams, plus results of queries sent through configured data sources. Stored in the Lake, those records reveal stale dashboards and noisy alerts, and let annotated incidents sit beside revenue and support data.

02Data
What you can sync.
- Dashboards
- Alert rules
- Annotations
- Data source queries
- Users
Keep Grafana Cloud dashboards in your own Lake, on your servers, and report on it with the rest of IT.
Need more? Name any other Grafana Cloud data the API returns, and the AI adds it to the connector.
03Credentials
Credentials you will need.
- An access token
Grafana Cloud uses an access token. You add the credentials once, when the AI asks for them, and it tells you where to create them in Grafana Labs if you need help.
04Questions
Questions you can answer.
Once Grafana Cloud data is in your Lake, ask an AI Mind in plain words or build the answer in DataPrism BI.
- Which dashboards have not been updated in six months, and which folders hold most of them?
- Which alert rules are paused, and which teams own them?
- How do incidents annotated on the checkout dashboard line up with order counts for the same hours?
- How did weekly p95 latency from our Prometheus data source compare with support ticket volume?
- Which users hold the Admin role in Grafana but have left the company?
05How it works
How it works in DataMind.
-
Pick Grafana Cloud.
Open Lake, pick Grafana Cloud in the source picker and name the connection. Connect Any API opens with a ready prompt that points the AI at the Grafana Cloud API docs.
-
Answer a few questions.
The AI reads the Grafana Cloud documentation, then asks which credentials you will use, which data to sync (for example dashboards and alert rules), whether you want a one-time load or a recurring sync, and which accounts or filters apply.
-
Your data lands in Lake.
It builds the connector, tests it and shows you sample rows. Then Grafana Cloud data loads into your Lake on your schedule, ready for the Warehouse, DataPrism BI and AI Minds.
