Grafana

Grafana dashboards, annotations, and alerts

Grafana is the observability dashboarding tool (open-source self-hosted or Grafana Cloud) that visualises metrics from Prometheus, InfluxDB, Loki, Tempo, and dozens of other data sources. Tiny Command exposes five actions on the Grafana HTTP API, no triggers (Grafana alerting fires events via the configured contact-points — webhook, Slack, PagerDuty — and pointing a webhook contact-point at a Tiny Command webhook trigger is the standard pattern for event-driven workflows): List Dashboards (with optional folder, tag, search filters), Get Dashboard (returns the dashboard JSON model — useful for backup, audit, or programmatic editing), Create Annotation (post a vertical line on every dashboard with optional dashboard/panel scoping — the standard "mark when this deploy went live" pattern), List Alert Rules (the Grafana-managed alerting rules — unified alerting only, not legacy), and List Data Sources. The connection takes the Grafana URL (Grafana Cloud's per-stack URL or your self-hosted URL) plus a Grafana API key (or service-account token) with the relevant role.

Actions

Do anything Grafana can do, from a workflow.

Every action accepts dynamic inputs from upstream nodes, whether that's an AI output, a form field, or a search result.

ActionWhat it does
Create Grafana AnnotationPosts a vertical line on every dashboard at the configured timestamp with text and tags. The standard "mark when this deploy went live" workflow that helps engineers correlate metric changes with deploy events.
Get Grafana DashboardReturns the dashboard's JSON model — panels, queries, data-source references, layout. For dashboards-as-code workflows that diff JSON across environments or back up dashboards to Git.
List Grafana Alert RulesReturns Grafana-managed unified alerting rules. Useful for inventorying alert configuration and for "audit which alerts haven't fired in 6 months" maintenance workflows.
List Grafana DashboardsReturns paginated dashboards with optional folder, tag, search filters. Useful for resolving dashboard IDs at workflow setup and for dashboard inventory.
List Grafana Data SourcesReturns every configured data source — Prometheus, InfluxDB, Loki, Tempo, etc. Useful for "audit which data sources have stale connections" maintenance and for resolving data-source names in dashboards-as-code.

Before you build

Three things worth knowing.

Filter at the trigger

Tiny Command counts a run the moment a trigger fires. Filtering early means only matching events spend your usage budget.

Authorize once, reuse anywhere

Connect Grafana once and every workflow on your account can use its triggers and actions. You don't have to re-auth per workflow.

No JSON to read

Every Grafana field shows up in the visual picker for downstream nodes. The raw payload is there for power users, optional for everyone else.

FAQ

Questions about the Grafana integration.

If we missed yours, ping support. We usually reply within an hour.

How do I connect Grafana to Tiny Command?
Open the Tiny Command workflow builder, drop in a Grafana node, and click Connect. Authorize Grafana once and any workflow on your account can use its triggers and actions. Most teams finish the connection in under two minutes.
What Grafana triggers does Tiny Command support?
Tiny Command focuses on outbound actions for Grafana today. Use Tiny Command's universal Webhook or Schedule trigger to start Grafana workflows, then run any Grafana action you need.
What Grafana actions can I run from a workflow?
5 Grafana actions are available out of the box, covering calendar & scheduling operations like "Create Grafana Annotation". Every action accepts dynamic inputs from upstream nodes, whether that's a search result, an AI output, or a form field.
Is the Grafana integration real-time?
Grafana actions execute synchronously inside your workflow. Tiny Command waits for Grafana's API to confirm before continuing to the next step, so downstream nodes can rely on the result.
Do I need to write code to use Grafana with Tiny Command?
No. Every Grafana trigger and action is fully configurable from the visual workflow builder. For edge cases that aren't covered, drop in a custom HTTP node and call any Grafana API endpoint directly.
How much does the Grafana integration cost?
There's a free tier you can start on without a credit card. Higher run volumes and team features come with paid plans. The Grafana integration itself has no per-app surcharge.
