Removing the legacy Grafana Cloud home plugin
Removing the legacy Grafana Cloud home plugin
We’ve removed the legacy plugin that previously served the homepage within Grafana Cloud stacks, cloud-home-app. If you still have links saved that go to <YOUR-STACK>.grafana.net/a/cloud-home-app, update them to go to <YOUR-STACK>.grafana.net instead.
Back in August of last year, we completed work to seamlessly migrate the code behind the Grafana Cloud homepage to a new plugin and internal code repository, as part of a larger effort to consolidate related code. Following this migration, we updated the code in the legacy plugin to ensure that accessing the old homepage at /a/cloud-home-app within a Grafana Cloud stack would automatically redirect you to the new homepage at /a/grafana-setupguide-app/home.
We’re now moving ahead with the final step in cleaning up this legacy plugin by removing the redirect and the plugin itself from all Grafana Cloud stacks. Accessing the old homepage at /a/cloud-home-app now results in an App not found error message with a link to the new homepage. If you already access your Grafana Cloud homepage by going to the root URL (e.g., <YOUR-STACK>.grafana.net), no action is needed as this will continue to serve the new homepage. If you’ve still got links saved that include /a/cloud-home-app, update those to go to the root URL instead.
Note
While the new default Grafana Cloud homepage is served at
/a/grafana-setupguide-app/home, we recommend saving links that go to/instead, to ensure they’ll continue to work if an administrator of your Grafana Cloud stack sets a custom homepage.
