AJAX Panel for Grafana

The AJAX Panel can load external content into the dashboard. This is a more powerful and flexible solution than using an <iframe

Options

• Method:

  GET or POST

• URL:

  The URL to request

• Parameters:

  The parameters that will be passed in the request. This is a javascript object with access to the variables:

  • ctrl The control object.

  Sample Parameters:

  {
   from:ctrl.range.from.format('x'),  // x is unix ms timestamp
   to:ctrl.range.to.format('x'), 
   height:ctrl.height
  }
