⚠️ Deprecation notice

grafana-agent has been replaced by Alloy. grafana-agent is not used anymore, and it is now deprecated.

Installing

There are several ways to install this app onto a workload cluster.

• Using GitOps to instantiate the App
• Using our web interface.
• By creating an App resource in the management cluster as explained in Getting started with App Platform.

Configuring

values.yaml

This is an example of a values file you could upload using our web interface.

# values.yaml

Sample App CR and ConfigMap for the management cluster

If you have access to the Kubernetes API on the management cluster, you could create the App CR and ConfigMap directly.

Here is an example that would install the app to workload cluster abc12:

# appCR.yaml

# user-values-configmap.yaml

See our full reference on how to configure apps for more details.
