📩 Automated email reminders – Receive email notifications before a token expires, ensuring a seamless transition.

Get instant clarity when a panel isn’t showing any data or inaccurate data. Use Debug Metrics to learn if all the required metrics that power your panel are available and properly labeled.

Grafana Cloud now supports native cross-region connectivity using AWS PrivateLink.

Previously, AWS PrivateLink only supported connectivity to VPC endpoint services in the same region. Connecting to services in a different region required setting VPC Peering between both regions, and this was complicated in some environments.

Grafana OnCall and Grafana Incident are now unified into a single application: Grafana IRM. This update simplifies workflows, consolidates configurations, and provides a more integrated experience for managing on-call schedules, alert escalations, and incident response. Changes include:

When you configure Kubernetes Monitoring, you can select Fleet Management for monitoring, configuring, and managing your Alloy deployments.

Additional buttons are available on any Cluster detail page for you to immediately access the namespaces and workloads on the Cluster.

We’re excited to announce that Grafana Fleet Management is generally available! Since launching Fleet Management in public preview last November, we’ve been working to add more features to help you monitor and manage your collector fleets at scale. Here are some of these enhancements:

Standardized links for plugins to simplify user-developer interactions

We’re pleased to announce an improvement to the Grafana plugin catalog that benefits both Grafana users and plugin developers. By introducing standardized links on plugin details pages, we’re making it easier for users to engage with developers, and find the essential information they need to get the most out of a plugin. Developers, in turn, will gain valuable feedback and support from their audience.

On March 10, 2025, we started rolling out a default list of resource attributes as labels on Grafana Cloud Metrics. The goal is to simplify data exploration and correlation for customers sending OpenTelemetry metrics. We expect the total rollout time to be a few weeks.

We’ve moved over to WebGL for geomap marker layers. You can expect a significant increase in performance and stability, which is especially noticeable for larger datasets.

The alert rule history

Alerting has added a new feature that allows you to review, compare, and restore previous alert rules.

• You now can restore old rule versions from the versions tab in the detail view.

In response to the recent deprecation of OpsGenie, Grafana Alerting has added support for Jira Service Management as a Grafana Managed contact point. You can ensure you don’t miss any critical alerts by updating your OpsGenie contact points to use Jira Service Management.

Grafana Managed Alerts now supports version history. You can view, compare, and restore your alert’s historical versions by navigating to the alert details view of any Grafana Managed Alert rule and clicking the Version tab.

It can be hard for teams to collaborate on dashboards when they have to use different data sources. Grafana instances can become cluttered and confusing with hundreds of data sources.

The table visualization now includes a new Actions cell type, which lets you trigger actions directly from table cells. This enhancement allows you to define custom actions, such as triggering external workflows, from within a table column:
