We support Grafana Pro, Advanced, and Enterprise. You can also use the Cognite Data Source for Grafana on Grafana instances that you host yourself.

Get started

Choose a guide below to connect your data and build panels.
Which query tabs appear in your Grafana dashboard is controlled by feature flags in the data source settings. CDM features like CogniteTimeSeries and Data models can be disabled by default, while legacy tabs are typically enabled. If you don’t see a tab, check the data source settings and enable the relevant feature flag.

Plot time series from data model views

Create dashboards using the core data model (CDM) query tabs. Recommended for new dashboards.

Plot time series with legacy features

Create dashboards using asset-centric query tabs. Planned for deprecation.

Visualize events

Display events in tables and annotate graphs with filtered event data from CDF.

Create template variables

Build dynamic dashboards with variables and nested asset hierarchy navigation.

Troubleshoot connection issues

Resolve common issues when configuring the API host and connecting to CDF.
