grafana-import-export

Simple scripts for import/export dashboards, datasources and alerts to Grafana

Support organizations.

Example was taken from https://gist.github.com/crisidev/bd52bdcc7f029be2f295

Dependencies

JQ - to process .json

Configuration

config.sh is used at runtime to configure the tools. An example file is provided. Copy the configuration file that you'd like to use to config.sh. Then you don't have to commit secrets in your config to the project.

Example: cp config.example.sh config.sh

Configuration Contents

Replace HOST and FILE_DIR variables at config.sh with your own. Also fill ORGS array with pairs ORGANIZATION:API_KEY.

Two CF_ACCESS_* variables are available for use if you use CloudFlare Access to protect your Grafana instance.

Storing your dashboards

Remove the line data/* from .gitignore if you would like to store them in source control.

exporter

Run:

# Modify for your own source config file.
cp config.example.sh config.sh
./exporter.sh

Expected output:

./exporter.sh
  % Total    % Received % Xferd  Average Speed   Time    Time     Time  Current
                                 Dload  Upload   Total   Spent    Left  Speed
100 21102    0 21102    0     0  53000      0 --:--:-- --:--:-- --:--:-- 53020

Look for exported .json dashboards and datasources at FILE_DIR path

importer

To import all .json files from FILE_DIR to your Grafana:

# Modify for your own source config file.
cp config.example.sh config.sh
./importer.sh

To import only some of them:

./importer.sh organization/dashboards/dashboard.json organization/datasources/datasource.json

To import all for organization:

./importer.sh organization/dashboards/*.json organization/datasources/*.json
