GitHub Integration for Grafana Cloud
GitHub is a provider of Internet hosting for software development and version control using Git. This integration enables the agent to send metrics to Grafana Cloud along with a useful default dashboard for visualization.
Use the walkthrough in Grafana Cloud to install the GitHub Integration.
Post-install configuration for the GitHub Integration
In the agent configuration file, you must specify the repositories for which you wish to collect statistics. This can be a combination of specifying entire orgs, or users, and listing repositories explicitly.
It is also advised that you provide a GitHub personal access token with read-only permissions so that the API ratelimit is not reached prematurely.
