Hello all,
I am currently running grafana with influxdB locally on my raspberry pi. I access via the browser using localhost:8086. I was wondering if there is anyway for me to share the dashboard with someone else even though it is running locally? I only want to share with permission to view the dashboard and not modify it. Of course until now i have had no success because all of the links to share are localhost.
Hello all,
I am currently running grafana with influxdB locally on my raspberry pi. I
access via the browser using localhost:8086.
So, that’s the port number for InfluxDB, not for Grafana…
I was wondering if there is anyway for me to share the dashboard with
someone else even though it is running locally?
You just need to open access to InfluxDB to the network range the someone else
is on and they can get the same data as you can.
Out of interest, why are you using browser database mode instead of server
database mode?
I only want to share with permission to view the dashboard and not modify
it.
That’s a completely different question. Let’s just deal with simple access
first.
Of course until now i have had no success because all of the links to share
are localhost.
Have you tried changing those to the IP address of the InfluxDB / Grafana
server?
Are you talking about someone else in the same network range as the Pi, or
someone else across the Internet?

Antony.
Hi thanks for your reply

Yes this is actually what I would like to do but im not too sure how.

I would like someone else to view it outside of my network.
Thanks

Have you tried changing “localhost” in the links to the IP address of the
InfluxDB / Grafana (Pi) server?

I’m going to assume that means “from the Internet”, so you’re going to have to
allow inbound access to your Grafana server (the Pi) and that’s beyond the
realm of this support list - that’s a question of network access and port
forwarding, best asked on a general Linux support list.
