To connect your account in the mobile app:

  1. Open the Grafana OnCall mobile app and tap Sign in
  2. Follow the instructions in the app to complete QR code authentication
  3. Once the scan is successful, your mobile app is connected to OnCall

Where can I find my QR code?

To access your QR code:

  1. Open Grafana OnCall from your desktop
  2. Navigate to the Users tab, then tap View my profile
  3. tap Mobile app connection in your profile

Note: The QR code will timeout for security purposes - Screenshots of the QR code are unlikely to work for authentication.

Connect to your open source Grafana OnCall account

Grafana OnCall OSS relies on Grafana Cloud as on relay for push notifications. You must first connect your Grafana OnCall OSS to Grafana Cloud for the mobile app to work.

To connect to Grafana Cloud, refer to the Cloud page in your OSS Grafana OnCall instance.

For Grafana OnCall OSS, the QR code includes an authentication token along with a backend URL. Your Grafana OnCall OSS instance should be reachable from the same network as your mobile device, preferably from the internet.
