Configuration
Grafana has a number of configuration options that you can specify in a .ini configuration file or specified using environment variables.
Note: You must restart Grafana for any configuration changes to take effect.
Config file locations
Do not change defaults.ini! Grafana defaults are stored in this file. Depending on your OS, make all configuration changes in either custom.ini or grafana.ini.
- Default configuration from
$WORKING_DIR/conf/defaults.ini - Custom configuration from
$WORKING_DIR/conf/custom.ini - The custom configuration file path can be overridden using the
--configparameter
Linux
If you installed Grafana using the deb or rpm packages, then your configuration file is located at /etc/grafana/grafana.ini and a separate custom.ini is not used. This path is specified in the Grafana init.d script using --config file parameter.
Docker
Refer to Configure a Grafana Docker image for information about environmental variables, persistent storage, and building custom Docker images.
Windows
sample.ini is in the same directory as defaults.ini and contains all the settings commented out. Copy sample.ini and name it custom.ini.
MacOS
By default, the configuration file is located at /usr/local/etc/grafana/grafana.ini. To configure Grafana, add a configuration file named custom.ini to the conf folder to override any of the settings defined in conf/defaults.ini.
Comments in .ini Files
Semicolons (the ; char) are the standard way to comment out lines in a .ini file. If you want to change a setting, you must delete the semicolon (;) in front of the setting before it will work.
Example
# The http port to use
;http_port = 3000A common problem is forgetting to uncomment a line in the custom.ini (or grafana.ini) file which causes the configuration option to be ignored.
Configure with environment variables
All options in the configuration file can be overridden using environment variables using the syntax:
GF_<SectionName>_<KeyName>Where the section name is the text within the brackets. Everything should be uppercase, . should be replaced by _. For example, if you have these configuration settings:
# default section
instance_name = ${HOSTNAME}
[security]
admin_user = admin
[auth.google]
client_secret = 0ldS3cretKeyYou can override them on Linux machines with:
export GF_DEFAULT_INSTANCE_NAME=my-instance
export GF_SECURITY_ADMIN_USER=owner
export GF_AUTH_GOOGLE_CLIENT_SECRET=newS3cretKeyFor any changes to
conf/grafana.ini(or corresponding environment variables) to take effect, you must restart Grafana for the changes to take effect.
instance_name
Set the name of the grafana-server instance. Used in logging, internal metrics, and clustering info. Defaults to: ${HOSTNAME}, which will be replaced with
environment variable HOSTNAME, if that is empty or does not exist Grafana will try to use
system calls to get the machine name.
[paths]
data
Path to where Grafana stores the sqlite3 database (if used), file based sessions (if used), and other data. This path is usually specified via command line in the init.d script or the systemd service file.
macOS: The default SQLite database is located at /usr/local/var/lib/grafana
temp_data_lifetime
How long temporary images in data directory should be kept. Defaults to: 24h. Supported modifiers: h (hours),
m (minutes), for example: 168h, 30m, 10h30m. Use 0 to never clean up temporary files.
logs
Path to where Grafana will store logs. This path is usually specified via command line in the init.d script or the systemd service file. You can override it in the configuration file or in the default environment variable file. However, please note that by overriding this the default log path will be used temporarily until Grafana has fully initialized/started.
Override log path using the command line argument cfg:default.paths.log:
./grafana-server --config /custom/config.ini --homepath /custom/homepath cfg:default.paths.logs=/custom/pathmacOS: By default, the log file should be located at /usr/local/var/log/grafana/grafana.log.
plugins
Directory where Grafana will automatically scan and look for plugins. Manually or automatically install any plugins here.
macOS: By default, the Mac plugin location is: /usr/local/var/lib/grafana/plugins.
provisioning
Folder that contains provisioning config files that grafana will apply on startup. Dashboards will be reloaded when the json files changes
[server]
http_addr
The IP address to bind to. If empty will bind to all interfaces
http_port
The port to bind to, defaults to 3000. To use port 80 you need to either give the Grafana binary permission for example:
$ sudo setcap 'cap_net_bind_service=+ep' /usr/sbin/grafana-serverOr redirect port 80 to the Grafana port using:
$ sudo iptables -t nat -A PREROUTING -p tcp --dport 80 -j REDIRECT --to-port 3000Another way is put a webserver like Nginx or Apache in front of Grafana and have them proxy requests to Grafana.
protocol
http,https,h2 or socket
Note: Grafana versions earlier than 3.0 are vulnerable to POODLE. So we strongly recommend to upgrade to 3.x or use a reverse proxy for ssl termination.
socket
Path where the socket should be created when protocol=socket. Please make sure that Grafana has appropriate permissions.
domain
This setting is only used in as a part of the root_url setting (see below). Important if you use GitHub or Google OAuth.
enforce_domain
Redirect to correct domain if host header does not match domain. Prevents DNS rebinding attacks. Default is false.
root_url
This is the full URL used to access Grafana from a web browser. This is important if you use Google or GitHub OAuth authentication (for the callback URL to be correct).
Note: This setting is also important if you have a reverse proxy in front of Grafana that exposes it through a subpath. In that case add the subpath to the end of this URL setting.
serve_from_sub_path
Available in 6.3 and above
Serve Grafana from subpath specified in root_url setting. By default it is set to false for compatibility reasons.
By enabling this setting and using a subpath in root_url above, e.g.
root_url = http://localhost:3000/grafana, Grafana will be accessible on
http://localhost:3000/grafana.
static_root_path
The path to the directory where the front end files (HTML, JS, and CSS
files). Defaults to public which is why the Grafana binary needs to be
executed with working directory set to the installation path.
enable_gzip
Set this option to true to enable HTTP compression, this can improve
transfer speed and bandwidth utilization. It is recommended that most
users set it to true. By default it is set to false for compatibility
reasons.
cert_file
Path to the certificate file (if protocol is set to https or h2).
cert_key
Path to the certificate key file (if protocol is set to https or h2).
router_logging
Set to true for Grafana to log all HTTP requests (not just errors). These are logged as Info level events
to grafana log.
[database]
Grafana needs a database to store users and dashboards (and other
things). By default it is configured to use sqlite3 which is an
embedded database (included in the main Grafana binary).

name
The name of the Grafana database. Leave it set to grafana or some
other name.
user
The database user (not applicable for sqlite3).
password
The database user’s password (not applicable for sqlite3). If the password contains # or ; you have to wrap it with triple quotes. For example """#password;"""
ssl_mode
For Postgres, use either disable, require or verify-full.
For MySQL, use either true, false, or skip-verify.
ca_cert_path
The path to the CA certificate to use. On many Linux systems, certs can be found in /etc/ssl/certs.
client_key_path
The path to the client key. Only if server requires client authentication.
client_cert_path
The path to the client cert. Only if server requires client authentication.
server_cert_name
The common name field of the certificate used by the mysql or postgres server. Not necessary if ssl_mode is set to skip-verify.
max_idle_conn

max_open_conn
The maximum number of open connections to the database.
conn_max_lifetime
Sets the maximum amount of time a connection may be reused. The default is 14400 (which means 14400 seconds or 4 hours). For MySQL, this setting should be shorter than the wait_timeout variable.
log_queries
Set to true to log the sql calls and execution times.
cache_mode
For “sqlite3” only. Shared cache setting used for connecting to the database. (private, shared)
Defaults to private.
