What is the Grafana MCP Server?
Connect your Grafana instance to any AI agent and take full control of your application observability, dashboard inspections, and alerting workflows through natural conversation.
What you can do
- Dashboard Discovery Orchestration — Search for Grafana dashboards by title or tag to retrieve unique UIDs and metadata natively within your chat
- Panel & Query Inspection — Retrieve the full configuration of any dashboard by UID, extracting precise PromQL, LogQL, or SQL queries and panel layouts flawlessly
- Data Source Auditing — List all configured data sources including Prometheus, Loki, CloudWatch, and SQL databases to verify connectivity boundaries securely
- Alert Monitoring Oversight — Enumerate active alert rules and retrieve current firing states to monitor system health and resolve incidents synchronously
- Observability Navigation — Analyze specific localized variables decoding active monitoring routes and extracting structural constraints from your Grafana environment
- SRE Command Center — Verify dashboard UIDs and retrieve query strings to debug performance regressions or analyze log patterns using natural language
How it works
- Subscribe to this server
- Enter your Grafana Instance URL and Service Account Token (found in Administration > Users & Access > Service accounts)
- Start inspecting your observability stack from Claude, Cursor, or any MCP-compatible client
Who is this for?
- SRE & DevOps Engineers — monitor alert rules and inspect dashboard queries without manual navigation in the Grafana UI
- Cloud Architects — audit data source configurations and verify dashboard organization using natural language
- Software Developers — extract PromQL or LogQL queries from existing panels to verify metrics and logs during development
- Incident Responders — quickly find relevant dashboards and check alert statuses during active troubleshooting

Frequently asked questions
Can my agent search for specific dashboards in my Grafana instance?
Yes. Use the 'search_dashboards' tool. You can provide an optional query string to match titles or tags. The agent will return basic info including the unique UID required for deeper inspection.
How do I extract the PromQL or SQL queries from a dashboard panel via chat?
Use the 'get_dashboard' tool with the dashboard UID. Your agent will retrieve the full JSON configuration, including all panels and their underlying data queries, enabling you to review the exact metrics logic natively.
Can I see firing alerts through the agent?
Absolutely. Use the 'list_alerts' tool. The agent retrieves all configured alert rules and their current statuses, allowing you to identify which monitors are currently in a firing state synchronousy.
How does LlamaIndex connect to MCP servers?
Use the MCP client adapter to create a connection. LlamaIndex discovers all tools and wraps them as query engine tools compatible with any LlamaIndex agent.
Can I combine MCP tools with vector stores?
Yes. LlamaIndex agents can query Grafana tools and vector store indexes in the same turn, combining real-time and embedded data for grounded responses.
Does LlamaIndex support async MCP calls?
Yes. LlamaIndex's async agent framework supports concurrent MCP tool calls for high-throughput data processing pipelines.
