Provisioned dashboards in Grafana cloud

Grafana Cloud
1

Hi,

We use grafana in a self-hosted environment (docker / AWS) but looking at moving this to Grafana cloud.

We rely heavily on provisioned dashboards and datsources (Provision dashboards and data sources | Grafana Labs) but I can’t find any information on how to do this on grafana cloud.

Is anyone using this on grafana cloud? How would we ensure the right file structure and dashboard json files are existing on the filesystem, and have an integration with i.e. github to maintain this.

Thanks
Johan

Hello Johan,

We do not support file path based provisioning in Grafana Cloud.

To provision dashboards and datasources into your cloud Grafana instance you will can use the api.

Additionally, we have documentation around infrastructure as code tooling.
https://grafana.com/docs/grafana-cloud/infrastructure-as-code/

Specifically of note would be the Grizzly tool.
