Is there a way to set a dashboard in Grafana as the home without admin login ? I have a Helm chart that I deploy Grafana with so I would like to do this at a configuration level.
I could not see any options under http://docs.grafana.org/installation/configuration/ for grafana.ini
I'm able to do this manually by login as the admin for the default organization, starring a dashboard and setting that dashboard as the home under preferences. But ofcourse automating this through configuration would be ideal.
Not sure how to do it via .ini file. But you could make use of the Grafana API to get this done.
If you can figure out the Id of the dashboard.Or create via the API itself
Use /api/user/stars/dashboard/{id} to star the dashboard
Then update preference to set the dashboard as home.
Hope this helps.

I am trying to login to Rundeck community (4.5.0) that I installed on a AWS ECS cluster behind an Application Load Balancer. The health checks on target groups are good/healthy and I can reach the landing page of Rundeck too.
Once I enter default admin credentials, the page keeps loading for more an hour and times out eventually. There are no error logs in Cloudwatch as well. Same image works locally but not on AWS setup.
Any ideas or suggestions on how to solve this is welcome.
You need to set RUNDECK_SERVER_FORWARDED=true env var in your deployment. Take a look at this.
I am a free Grafana cloud plan user.
I want to enable anonymous access to my dashboard.
I searched many places and found they all talked about changing the config file in code.
I cannot find where the config file is and it seems everyone talks about the config files and knows where it is located. Also found this official document talks about how to enable the anonymous access.
To me, it feels like I need to log into a console on the Grafana server, but I cannot find it.
How can I change the config file to enable anonymous access to my dashboard? Does it require a paid plan?
You don't have access to config file as free Grafana cloud user. Deploy own Grafana instance and then you will be able to customize config file.
For anyone coming here from a search, my grafana.ini was in
/etc/grafana/grafana.ini
More info on the config file location here.
We are using https://github.com/poseidon/typhoon for our kubernetes cluster setup.
I want to set up a dashboard for kubernetes similar to https://kubernetes.io/docs/tasks/access-application-cluster/web-ui-dashboard/
I followed https://docs.aws.amazon.com/eks/latest/userguide/dashboard-tutorial.html and I am able to get the dashboard on my localhost
The issue with this is that "EVERY USER HAS TO FOLLOW THE SAME TO ACCESS THE DASHBOARD"
I was wondering if there was some way wherein we can access the dashboard via DomainName and everyone should be able to access it without much pre-set up required.
In dashboard documentation you can read:
Using Skip option will make Dashboard use privileges of Service
Account used by Dashboard. Skip button is disabled by default since
1.10.1. Use --enable-skip-login dashboard flag to display it.
So you can add --enable-skip-login to the dashboard to display skip button.
If your users don't want to login, they can click Skip button during login and use privileges of Dashboard service account.
Numerous forum posts and documentations specify extracting login info for the Kubernetes install from ~/.kube/config.
The problem I found: mine doesn't have a proper user account, it specifies a name and a token.
How do I get the account name so I can use the kubernetes-cockpit UI? Surprisingly there appears to be nothing on that topic - what to do if the config doesn't contain an account.
It depends on how you use Cockpit.
According to cockpit official page:
Used in a standard cockpit session:
If a user is able to use kubectl successfully when at their shell terminal, then that same user will able to use Kubernetes dashboard when logged into Cockpit
I suppose this is your scenario, so if you didn't change default settings, the cockpit will look for .kube/config itself, i.e. you should be able to login without specifying your account.
I have a Bluemix user and he has manager access to his space. He wants to create a custom dashboard in Access Trail Service in Bluemix console. However, he cannot see the default dashboard that comes out of the box with the creation of an Access Trail service instance. Is there any way to get the default dashboard to display?
To recreate the default Access Trail dashboard, open the Access Trail dashboard for your space in Bluemix where you have the problem and click Create a dashboard. The default dashboard for that space will be recreated.
