Add cloudwatch logs to drill down

Grafana Cloudwatch
1

  • What Grafana version and what operating system are you using?

    • Grafana cloud

  • What are you trying to achieve?

    • I’ve set up a cloudwatch data source and can query the logs just fine using the explore console. However, it’d be convenient if they were in the log drill down console with the rest of my logs.

  • How are you trying to achieve it?

    • Cloud watch isn’t in the data source drop down in the log drill down console. Can’t see a way to configure this in the data source settings.

Drill down feature is for Loki, not CloudWatch

So when you set up a cloud watch data source the logs aren’t ingested into loki, they’re queried directly?

no, when you have CloudWatch datasource then you are connecting and querying CloudWatch itself. Grafana doesn’t store any logs.
