This repository includes sample dashboards for Grafana that attempt to put everything you've read so far into practice.

Importing the sample dashboards

We have provided sample dashboards for Vault and Consul here. To import them into your own Grafana server:

  1. Download the dashboards to your machine.
  2. Open the Grafana web interface. In the sample project, this would be at http://localhost:3000.
  3. Click the "plus" icon to open the Create menu, and select Import (screenshot).
  4. Click the green "Upload JSON File" button.
  5. Browse to the first dashboard file and upload it.
  6. From the dropdown list, select the data source you created earlier (screenshot).
  7. Click "Import".

Now you should be able to see beautiful dashboards full of Vault and Consul metrics. If there are errors, you might need to customize each dashboard slightly. Depending on the versions of Vault and Consul you have, some metrics may not be available or may have been renamed.
