Next, log into your Grafana instance. Navigate to the Plugins section, found in your Grafana main menu.

Click the Apps tabs in the Plugins section and select the newly installed app.

To enable the app, click the Config tab. Follow the instructions provided with the application and click Enable. The app and any new UI pages are now accessible from within the main menu, as designed by the app creator.
