Navigate Grafana resources
Choose this hub whenever you need the Assistant to become your tour guide through Grafana. The workflows are written so you can land on any page, locate the resources you need, and share them with teammates in minutes.
When to use this hub
- You cannot remember where a dashboard, panel, or Grafana app lives and need to jump there quickly.
- You need an inventory of data sources or metrics before building queries or dashboards.
- You are coordinating an incident and must direct responders to the right views, runbooks, or tools.
Prerequisites
- Access permissions: Make sure you can open the dashboards, data sources, and apps you plan to reference.
- Destination hints: Have tags, names, metric patterns, or incident details ready so the Assistant can narrow results.
- Collaboration channel: Decide where you will share the links or summaries you gather (chat, ticket, runbook).
- Prompting etiquette: Use natural language, be explicit about the assets you need, and start a new conversation when you pivot to a different investigation.
