Dashboard integration

Dashboard integration

Add findings from Metrics Drilldown directly to dashboards without switching tools.

From exploration to permanent monitoring

Script

Exploration is valuable, but eventually you want permanent monitoring. That’s where dashboard integration comes in.

When you find a metric worth tracking, Grafana Metrics Drilldown lets you add it to a dashboard directly from the exploration interface. The visualization you’re viewing becomes a dashboard panel.

You can add to an existing dashboard or create a new one. The panel includes the metric, filters, and time range from your current view. No need to recreate your exploration in a query editor.

This workflow keeps you moving. Explore, find something interesting, add to dashboard, continue investigating. It removes the friction of switching between exploration and permanent monitoring.

You’ll practice this in the upcoming learning path.
