Nuphos authenticates to Grafana with a service account token and proxies
requests to your instance, so the agent can read your dashboards, alert rules, and
datasources, and explore traces.
Create a service account token
In Grafana, under Administration → Service accounts, create a service account
and add a token to it. Copy the token (it’s shown once; depending on your
Grafana version it may start with glsa_).
Connect in Nuphos
In Integrations → Connect → Grafana, enter:
| Field | Notes |
|---|
| Name | A label, e.g. “prod” or “staging” |
| Grafana URL | Base URL, e.g. https://grafana.example.com — no trailing slash or path |
| Service account token | The token you created |
The URL must be a public HTTPS/HTTP host. Private and loopback ranges
(10.0.0.0/8, 127.0.0.0/8, 169.254.0.0/16, 172.16.0.0/12,
192.168.0.0/16, localhost) are rejected. Don’t embed credentials in the URL.
The connection isn’t verified at bind time, so if the token or URL is wrong it
fails the first time the agent uses it — double-check both.
What the agent can do
Browse dashboards, alert rules, and datasources, and explore traces. Grafana
signals also feed the unified Monitoring overview.
