Configuration options

You can configure several options for the Pyroscope data source, including the name, HTTP, authentication, querying, and private data source connect.

If you make any changes, select Save & test to preserve those changes.

Name and default

Name: Enter a name to specify the data source in panels, queries, and Explore.
Default: The default data source is pre-selected for new panels.

HTTP

The HTTP section is shown in number 1 in the screenshot.

URL: The URL of the Grafana Pyroscope instance, for example, https://localhost:4100.
Allowed cookies: The Grafana Proxy deletes forwarded cookies. Use this field to specify cookies by name that should be forwarded to the data source.
Timeout: HTTP request timeout in seconds.

Auth

The Auth section is shown in number 2 in the screenshot.

Basic auth: Enable basic authentication to the data source. When activated, it provides User and Password fields.
With Credentials: Whether credentials, such as cookies or auth headers, should be sent with cross-site requests.
TLS Client Auth: Toggle on to use client authentication. When enabled, it adds the Server name, Client cert, and Client key fields. The client provides a certificate that is validated by the server to establish the client’s trusted identity. The client key encrypts the data between client and server. These details are encrypted and stored in the Grafana database.
With CA Cert: Activate this option to verify self-signed TLS certificates.
Skip TLS Verify: When activated, it bypasses TLS certificate verification.
Forward OAuth Identity: When activated, the user’s upstream OAuth 2.0 identity is forwarded to the data source along with their access token.
Custom HTTP Headers: Select Add header to add Header and Value fields.
Header: Add a custom header. This allows custom headers to be passed based on the needs of your Pyroscope instance.
Value: The value of the header.
