What the Grafana connector can do
Grafana is an observability platform for metrics, logs, and traces across a team's infrastructure. With a Grafana connection in type.com, an on-call or platform Space can ask Claude to check instance health, inspect the status of a distributed component, or push logs into Loki, keeping diagnostics in the same thread as the incident discussion.
One connection, many Spaces
Connect Grafana once, then decide which Spaces can use it in threads, skills, automations, and coding work.
What teams do with Grafana in type.com
Check health before an incident call
Before escalating, ask the agent to confirm the Grafana server and database are actually reachable, ruling out a basic availability problem.
Check Grafana health status before we join the incident call for the dashboard outage.
Inspect cluster ring status during debugging
Pull the status of the index gateway or overrides-exporter ring to see which nodes are healthy without logging into the Grafana console.
Get the index gateway ring status in Grafana and tell me if any node looks unhealthy.
Ship logs during a live investigation
Send OTLP logs into Grafana Loki directly from a thread so the data lands in the right place while the team is still discussing it.
Create OTLP v1 logs in Grafana for the errors pasted above from the payment service.

FAQ
Questions people ask before connecting Grafana
Can Claude check Grafana health from type.com?
Yes. Once a Grafana connection is shared with a Space, you can ask the agent to check server health, inspect ring status, or send logs, all inside a thread the team can see.
How does type.com authenticate with Grafana?
Grafana connections use a bearer token, added once by an admin when the connection is created. Teammates never need to handle the token themselves.
Can Grafana checks run automatically on a schedule?
Yes. A recurring health or ring-status check can be set up as a type.com automation that posts the result to a channel.
Is this the same as a Grafana MCP server?
Not exactly. type.com uses connectors and connections to give selected Spaces access to approved app tools and data. Some connectors use hosted MCP, while others use OAuth, API keys, service accounts, or custom APIs.
