How to export snapshot file from Grafana
In case when it is not possible to share dashboard via https://snapshot.raintank.io/ (for example due to security policies) next flow could be used to export JSON of dashboard with required data included:
- Open required dashboard and set the time range which includes time when issue was occurred and + 2-3 hr before and ahead
- Click on share button, select Snapshot tab and click on Local Snapshot button.
- Once snapshot link would be available (will start from /app) click on COPY button
- Form URL with created snapshot and Sisense domain. Then press Enter. Example:
- Now snapshot is created and opened - Click on share button again
- Select the Export tab and click on Save FIle. Snapshot would be downloaded on your local machine
This file could be imported in another Grafana instance as a dashboard with data inside. Such snapshots are very useful in troubleshooting and could be shared with a Sisense Support Team.
