After you install

You’ve chosen an integration and set it up to install Grafana Alloy and start collecting data. This section covers what an install adds:

  • Dashboards: Where they live and how to navigate them
  • Default alert rules: What comes with the integration and where to find it

Before you continue

Already installed an integration? You’re ready. If not, you can install one from Connections, or revisit a setup slide in the previous section. Or read along without a stack.

Estimated time

5 minutes

Script

You’ve chosen an integration and set it up, installing Grafana Alloy and starting to collect data. That’s a big step, but installing is only half the story.

This section shows you what the install gives you: prebuilt dashboards and default alert rules, where they live in Grafana Cloud, and how to read them.

If you haven’t installed an integration yet, you can still follow along and try it on your own stack afterward.
