Reviews ## What our customers say Questions ## Grafana, answered ### ### Is there a Grafana MCP server? APIANT's MCP server at https://mcp.apiant.ai works with Grafana. Add that address to any AI client that takes a remote MCP server and sign in once in your browser. Your client can then run Grafana actions on demand, or have APIANT build, test and run automations that use Grafana. Nothing to install. ### ### What can start an automation from Grafana? Any of Grafana's 1 trigger in the catalog, including New Dashboard. Describe the moment in plain language and your agent picks the right one. ### ### What can your agent do in Grafana? Any of Grafana's 24 actions, including Create Alert Rule, Create Annotation, Create Folder and Create or Update Dashboard. Your agent maps the data both ways and tests every scenario before it ships. ### ### Can I use Grafana directly from Claude, ChatGPT or Cursor? Yes. Connect your AI client to APIANT once and it works with Grafana two ways. Ask it to do something in Grafana once and it runs that action on the spot. Ask for an automation and your agent builds it, tests every scenario and keeps it running on its own. A one-off action uses your plan's tasks the same way an automation step does. ### ### Do I need to write code against the Grafana API? No. APIANT connects to the Grafana API for you, with your Grafana API key. Describe what you want in plain language and your agent builds it on the Grafana triggers and actions in the catalog. If you need an endpoint that is not there yet, your agent reads the Grafana API documentation and adds it. ### ### Which apps can Grafana connect to? Any app in the catalog; the list on this page pairs Grafana with each of them. If the other app is missing, point your agent at its API documentation and it builds the connector. ### ### What happens when something fails? Your agent works that out for you. It plans the failure paths along with the happy path, then tests every scenario before it ships. ### ### Is there a free plan? Yes. Every plan includes the agent, including free, and building from your own AI client spends no assistant credits.
