Tenant IDs
Grafana Pyroscope is a multi-tenant system where tenants can query profiles that include their tenant ID.
Within a Grafana Pyroscope cluster, the tenant ID is the unique identifier of a tenant.
The query takes the tenant ID from the X-Scope-OrgID parameter that exists in the HTTP header of each request, for example X-Scope-OrgID: <TENANT-ID>.
To push profiles to Pyroscope for a specific tenant, refer to Configure the Client.
By default, multi-tenancy is disabled, the tenant ID is ignored and all profiles are stored and retrieved with the same tenant (
anonymous).To enable multi-tenancy, add the
multitenancy_enabledparameter to the Grafana Pyroscope configuration file and set it totrue. Alternatively you can also use command line arguments to enable multi-tenancy, for example--auth.multitenancy-enabled=true.
