Follow these instructions to use a built-in, no-code connector hosted by ConductorOne.

1. In ConductorOne, navigate to Admin > Connectors and click Add connector.

2. Search for Grafana and click Add.

   Don’t see the Grafana connector? Reach out to support@conductorone.com to add Grafana to your Connectors page.

3. Choose how to set up the new Grafana connector:

   • Add the connector to a currently unmanaged app (select from the list of apps that were discovered in your identity, SSO, or federation provider that aren’t yet managed with ConductorOne)

   • Add the connector to a managed app (select from the list of existing managed apps)

   • Create a new managed app

4. Set the owner for this connector. You can manage the connector yourself, or choose someone else from the list of ConductorOne users. Setting multiple owners is allowed.

   If you choose someone else, ConductorOne will notify the new connector owner by email that their help is needed to complete the setup process.

5. Click Next.

6. Find the Settings area of the page and click Edit.

7. Paste your Grafana instance URL into the Instance URL field.

8. Paste the Grafana admin-level account’s username and password into the Username and Password fields.

9. Click Save.

10. The connector’s label changes to Syncing, followed by Connected. You can view the logs to ensure that information is syncing.

That’s it! Your Grafana connector is now pulling access data into ConductorOne.

Follow these instructions to use the Grafana connector, hosted and run in your own environment.

When running in service mode on Kubernetes, a self-hosted connector maintains an ongoing connection with ConductorOne, automatically syncing and uploading data at regular intervals. This data is immediately available in the ConductorOne UI for access reviews and access requests.

Step 1: Set up a new Grafana connector

1. In ConductorOne, navigate to Connectors > Add connector.

2. Search for Baton and click Add.

3. Choose how to set up the new Grafana connector:

   • Add the connector to a currently unmanaged app (select from the list of apps that were discovered in your identity, SSO, or federation provider that aren’t yet managed with ConductorOne)

   • Add the connector to a managed app (select from the list of existing managed apps)

   • Create a new managed app

4. Set the owner for this connector. You can manage the connector yourself, or choose someone else from the list of ConductorOne users. Setting multiple owners is allowed.

   If you choose someone else, ConductorOne will notify the new connector owner by email that their help is needed to complete the setup process.

5. Click Next.

6. In the Settings area of the page, click Edit.

7. Click Rotate to generate a new Client ID and Secret.

   Carefully copy and save these credentials. We’ll use them in Step 2.

Step 2: Create Kubernetes configuration files

Create two Kubernetes manifest files for your Grafana connector deployment:

Secrets configuration

# baton-grafana-secrets.yaml
apiVersion: v1
kind: Secret
metadata:
  name: baton-grafana-secrets
type: Opaque
stringData:
  # ConductorOne credentials
  BATON_CLIENT_ID: <ConductorOne client ID>
  BATON_CLIENT_SECRET: <ConductorOne client secret>
  
  # Grafana credentials
  BATON_HOSTNAME: <Grafana instance URL>
  BATON_USERNAME: <Grafana account username>
  BATON_PASSWORD: <Grafana account password>

  # Optional: Include if you want ConductorOne to provision access using this connector
  BATON_PROVISIONING: true

See the connector’s README or run --help to see all available configuration flags and environment variables.

Deployment configuration

# baton-grafana.yaml
apiVersion: apps/v1
kind: Deployment
metadata:
  name: baton-grafana
  labels:
    app: baton-grafana
spec:
  selector:
    matchLabels:
      app: baton-grafana
  template:
    metadata:
      labels:
        app: baton-grafana
        baton: true
        baton-app: grafana
    spec:
      containers:
      - name: baton-grafana
        image: ghcr.io/conductorone/baton-grafana:latest
        imagePullPolicy: IfNotPresent
        envFrom:
        - secretRef:
            name: baton-grafana-secrets

Step 3: Deploy the connector

1. Create a namespace in which to run ConductorOne connectors (if desired), then apply the secret config and deployment config files.

2. Check that the connector data uploaded correctly. In ConductorOne, click Applications. On the Managed apps tab, locate and click the name of the application you added the Grafana connector to. Grafana data should be found on the Entitlements and Accounts tabs.

That’s it! Your Grafana connector is now pulling access data into ConductorOne.
