I need to regularly send the state of Grafana dashboards (snapshots) via email, for example, daily.
I’m looking for standard Grafana tools or alternative solutions, including plugins, to implement this functionality. I would appreciate recommendations and experiences from colleagues on this matter:)
We are using the open source version of Grafana v11.2.2
So you don’t have any standard option. I’m not commenting alternative solutions.
you can follow our detailed document on how to send snapshot via email
Domshot is a paid SaaS (with a 7-day trial), not an open-source or self-hosted solution. That’s a valid option, but before adopting it, consider how authentication is handled, the ongoing cost after the trial, and whether allowing a third-party service access to your Grafana instance fits your organization’s security requirements.
If you’d prefer to keep everything self-hosted, using the Grafana Image Renderer together with external scheduling (for example, cron or a CI/CD job) remains the typical open-source approach, although it does require maintaining that automation yourself.
