Calling script in Grafana

I have existing scripts that monitor files on servers. If file is not present in the specific directory for specific time then it sends alert.
I want similar functionality in Grafana and have few questions:

  1. Is this functionality available in Grafana out of the box (without any scripts)?
  2. Can I call existing script and generate alert that can be visible on Grafana dashboards?

Please provide your inputs. Thanks.

you can try Telegraf and influxdb for this

Thanks for your pointers. Please share docs/urls if you have any on this topic.
Appreciate your help.

Excuse me for how I’ve talked before, here you can find the section that refers to this https://github.com/grafana/grafana/blob/master/CHANGELOG.md#600-beta1-2019-01-30
