Grafana integration
Synchronize Grafana's users, teams, and monitoring infrastructure with your service management platform for unified observability and team collaboration.
What it connects
- All Grafana users and their account details including login status and admin privileges.
- Teams and their membership across your Grafana organization for accurate team-based assignments.
- Monitoring dashboards that track application and infrastructure health across your environment.
- Data sources configured in Grafana including Elasticsearch, Prometheus, and other monitoring backends.
What it automates
- Add and remove users from Grafana teams based on organizational changes in your service management system.
- Remove team members when they leave teams or departments without manual dashboard reassignment.
- Create monitoring dashboards programmatically to standardize incident response visibility across teams.
- Provision new data source connections when monitoring integrations are added to your infrastructure.
In practice
- When an engineer joins the infrastructure team, STLabs automatically adds them to the Grafana monitoring team and provisions their dashboard access for production systems.
- A team restructuring removes five people from the database operations team; STLabs removes them from Grafana team membership in one action, preventing accidental access to production dashboards.
- During an incident response. STLabs creates a temporary Grafana dashboard showing real-time metrics for the affected service and links it directly into the incident ticket for triage.
- When a new observability tool is integrated into your infrastructure, STLabs creates a corresponding data source in Grafana and connects it to existing dashboards automatically.
