FAQPage Schema

How do I set up Grafana dashboards for monitoring logs, metrics, and traces?▼

Configure Grafana dashboards by provisioning multiple data sources—Loki for logs, Mimir for metrics, and Tempo for traces. Use dashboard templating to create unified observability views across the LGTM stack, then enable alerting rules to notify on anomalies detected across all three signal types.

Can I integrate Prometheus-compatible storage and OpenTelemetry data into Grafana dashboards?▼

Yes. Grafana supports Prometheus-compatible storage like Mimir as a metrics data source and ingests OpenTelemetry traces and metrics through Tempo and Mimir integration. Multi-datasource provisioning enables unified queries and visualization across all observability signals.

How do I query logs and traces in Grafana dashboards?▼

Use LogQL to query logs from Loki and TraceQL to query distributed traces from Tempo. Both query languages integrate into Grafana panels, allowing you to correlate log and trace data within the same dashboard for end-to-end observability.

What's the best way to configure alerting and notifications across metrics and logs in Grafana?▼

Define unified alerting rules in Grafana that evaluate metrics from Mimir and log patterns from Loki. Route triggered alerts through notification channels to consolidate all observability-based warnings into a single alerting system.

Does Grafana support role-based access control for production observability environments?▼

Yes. Grafana's RBAC features control dashboard, data source, and alert access by user role, enabling secure multi-tenant observability setups in production where different teams view only their allocated metrics, logs, and traces.
