# Grafana Plug-in

The Radiant Security Grafana plug-in allows you to query and visualize data from Radiant Security directly within Grafana. By connecting Grafana to Radiant Security, you can build custom dashboards, visualizations, and analytics to gain deeper insights into your security data.

The plug-in supports two primary use cases:

* **Monitor log events** — Query Radiant Security's Log Management data to visualize log volume, track connector activity, and analyze trends across your environment.
* **Monitor security alerts** — Surface and visualize Radiant Security alert data within Grafana for streamlined security operations and reporting.

With the plug-in, you can:

* Build custom dashboards tailored to your organization's needs
* Create time-series visualizations and histograms
* Group and filter data by connector type, alert severity, and more
* Analyze data across custom time ranges

#### Prerequisites

Before getting started, ensure you have the following:

* [ ] A Grafana instance installed in your **local or virtual environment**. The plug-in does *not* currently support Grafana Cloud.
* [ ] The Radiant Security Grafana plug-in zip file (available upon request from our customer success team).

#### How to get started

There are two installation guides depending on your use case. If you are setting up the plug-in for the first time, start with the Events guide; The Alerts guide builds on the same foundational installation steps.

1. **Query Events in Radiant Log Manager** - Follow the [Install the Grafana Plug-In to Query Events in the Radiant Log Manager](/log-management/grafana-plug-in/install-the-grafana-plug-in-to-query-events-in-the-radiant-log-manager.md) guide.
2. **Query Alerts in Radiant Log Manager** - Follow the [Install the Grafana OpenSearch Plug-In to Query Radiant Alerts](/log-management/grafana-plug-in/install-the-grafana-opensearch-plug-in-to-query-radiant-alerts.md) guide.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://help.radiantsecurity.ai/log-management/grafana-plug-in.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
