Dynamic text
Dynamic text for Grafana
A panel plugin for Grafana for dynamic, data-driven text.
While the built-in Text panel in Grafana does support variables, that's about as dynamic it gets. This panel lets you define a text template using the data from your data source query.
- Supports Markdown and Handlebars
- Uses markdown-it for rendering Markdown to HTML
Documentation
Full documentation for the plugin is available on the website.
Security
HTML inside templates is sanitized using XSS through textUtil.
