Grafana Alerting integration for Grafana OnCall

Grafana Alerting for Grafana OnCall can be set up using two methods:

• Grafana Alerting: Grafana OnCall is connected to the same Grafana instance being used to manage Grafana OnCall.

• Grafana (Other Grafana): Grafana OnCall is connected to one or more Grafana instances separate from the one being used to manage Grafana OnCall.

You must have an Admin role to create integrations in Grafana OnCall.
