The table visualization panel just got a major performance boost. Load, sort, and filter large tables many times faster than before, now that the table visualization has been refactored to use the react-data-grid library.
If the feature flag for dynamic dashboards is enabled, once an existing dashboard is migrated to a dynamic dashboard and using schema v2, it can’t be migrated back. This issue will be solved in future versions of Grafana.
We were double registering the existing metric cache_size. In Grafana v12 we’re deprecating the metric, with plans to remove it in Grafana v13, and splitting it into 2 different metrics:
We’re removing the deprecated version of the UI extension APIs in favor of the new reactive APIs introduced in Grafana v11.4. The new APIs enable Grafana to load plugins with UI extensions lazily when needed instead of needing to load them prior to starting Grafana. They also make the UI reactive, so when the UI extensions registry changes, it will be reflected in the UI.
We’ve had a standard way to define UIDs for Grafana objects for several years. While all of our internal code complies to this format, we didn’t yet have strict enforcement of this format in REST APIs and provisioning paths that allow the creation and update of data sources.
Use the full power of SQL to manipulate and combine results from data sources however you like. You can use it to create new dashboard visualizations and powerful alert and recording rules.
Aggregate by was introduced as a way to view RED metrics for your traces in the Tempo data source. This functionality has been deprecated since Grafana v11.3 in favor of using Traces Drilldown and the TraceQL metrics API, which offers much more functionality and complex features. Additionally, TraceQL metrics queries are significantly more powerful than what the metrics summary API provides.
Angular plugin support was deprecated and turned off by default in Grafana 11 and is now being removed Grafana v12. This means, effective in Grafana v12, there is no possibility anymore to use any Angular plugins in Grafana and the dashboards that were still using “core” Angular panels will be force-migrated to the latest versions that are using React.
Actions were introduced as an optional property for the DataLinksContextMenu in October 2024 to support actions in the context menu for the table visualization. Actions were under a feature flag, so the impact is minimal. There’s no other way to use the property from other places that are using the DataLinksContextMenu component, so we expect the effect to be minimal.
Grafana Cloud has a page in the Admin section that displays feature toggles. A feature toggle is a way to enable or disable certain features before they are generally available. The feature toggle UI shows which toggles are on or off, with options to enable or disable some of those toggles. This UI is experimental.
We are excited to announce SCIM user and group provisioning.
Previously, provisioned users needed to individually sign in to Grafana to exist within the platform, and administrators faced the time-consuming task of creating and managing teams - either manually or via provisioning. This process was complicated and often presented a bottleneck for new team members getting up and running quickly.
With this release we’re rethinking our dashboards APIs and introducing a new model that is consistent, versioned, and resource-oriented. We’re releasing them as experimental, with the intent to gather feedback and deliver a stable version to users with one of the next releases.
We’re excited to announce that the Grafana Cloud Migration Assistant is now generally available to all users! After a successful public preview period, this powerful tool is ready to transform how self-managed Enterprise customers and OSS users transition to Grafana Cloud.
This brand new feature, coming to Public Preview in Grafana v12, is designed to streamline how you approach problem-solving by bringing all your relevant signals together in one unified view.
Last October at ObsCon, we announced the GA of Logs Drilldown, and we’ve been hard at work expanding its capabilities to help you visualize your logs data with more flexibility and options.
