SETUP GUIDE

Connect Grafana MCP Tool with your Agent

1

Install Composio

typescript
npm install @composio/core ai @ai-sdk/mcp @ai-sdk/openai
Install the Composio SDK and your agent framework
2

Create a session with MCP enabled

typescript
import { Composio } from "@composio/core";

const composio = new Composio();
const { mcp } = await composio.create("your-user-id", {
  toolkits: ["grafana"],
  mcp: true,
});
Create a session scoped to Grafana and read its MCP URL and headers
3

Connect your agent to the MCP server

typescript
import { createMCPClient } from "@ai-sdk/mcp";
import { openai } from "@ai-sdk/openai";
import { generateText, stepCountIs } from "ai";

const client = await createMCPClient({
  transport: { type: "http", url: mcp.url, headers: mcp.headers },
});

const { text } = await generateText({
  model: openai("gpt-5.6-sol"),
  tools: await client.tools(),
  prompt: "List Grafana dashboards related to production API latency",
  stopWhen: stepCountIs(10),
});

console.log(text);
await client.close();
Pass the session's MCP URL and headers to your agent and run a Grafana request
SETUP GUIDE

Connect Grafana API Tool with your Agent

1

Install Composio

typescript
npm install @composio/core @composio/openai openai
Install the Composio SDK, the OpenAI provider, and the OpenAI SDK
2

Create a Composio session

typescript
import OpenAI from "openai";
import { Composio } from "@composio/core";
import { OpenAIResponsesProvider } from "@composio/openai";

const composio = new Composio({ provider: new OpenAIResponsesProvider() });
const client = new OpenAI();

const session = await composio.create("your-user-id", { toolkits: ["grafana"] });
const tools = await session.tools();
Initialize Composio with the OpenAI Responses provider and create a session scoped to Grafana
3

Run Grafana tools with your agent

typescript
let response = await client.responses.create({
  model: "gpt-5.6-sol",
  tools,
  input: [{ role: "user", content: "List Grafana dashboards related to production API latency" }],
});

while (response.output.some((o) => o.type === "function_call")) {
  const outputs = await composio.provider.handleToolCalls(session, response.output);
  response = await client.responses.create({
    model: "gpt-5.6-sol",
    tools,
    previous_response_id: response.id,
    input: outputs,
  });
}

console.log(response.output_text);
Send a request, execute the Grafana tool calls through the session, and print the final answer

Why Use Composio?

AI Native Grafana Integration

  • Supports both Grafana MCP and direct API based integrations
  • Structured, LLM-friendly schemas for reliable Grafana tool execution
  • Rich coverage for querying metrics, reading dashboards, checking alerts, and exploring observability data

Managed Auth

  • Securely store Grafana bearer tokens without hard-coding secrets in your agent code
  • Central place to manage, scope, and revoke Grafana access
  • Per user and per environment credentials so production, staging, and local agents stay separate

Agent Optimized Design

  • Tools are tuned using real error and success rates to improve reliability over time
  • Clear tool schemas help agents understand Grafana actions like listing dashboards or checking alert rules
  • Comprehensive execution logs so you always know what ran, when, and on whose behalf

Enterprise Grade Security

  • Fine-grained RBAC so you control which agents and users can access Grafana
  • Scoped, least privilege access to Grafana resources like dashboards, folders, alerts, and data sources
  • Full audit trail of agent actions to support incident review and compliance

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

Yes, Grafana requires you to configure your own bearer token credentials. Once set up, Composio handles secure token storage and lifecycle management for you.

Yes! Composio's Tool Router enables agents to use multiple toolkits. Learn more.

Yes. Composio is SOC 2 Type II compliant and is built to keep your Grafana connection and credentials secure. OAuth tokens and API keys are encrypted, and sensitive customer data is protected at rest and in transit.

Composio also undergoes independent security testing and continuously monitors its systems for security threats. You can review the latest reports and policies in the Composio Trust Center.

Composio maintains and updates all toolkit integrations automatically, so your agents always work with the latest API versions.

Create the key in your Grafana account settings, then paste it once on Composio's connection page. Composio stores it encrypted and uses it only for the Grafana actions your agent runs. Nobody else in your workspace can read it, and you can revoke it inside Grafana at any time.

When you connect a Grafana account through Composio, every action runs under that account, so anything the agent creates, sends, or changes shows up in Grafana as done by you. Keep an approval step in your prompt for actions with side effects, such as sending or deleting, and have the agent draft first.

Whatever the credentials you connect allow inside Grafana. If Grafana lets you scope a key to specific permissions, create a scoped one so the agent can only do what you intend. You can revoke the key inside Grafana at any time.

Yes. Composio supports multiple connected accounts for the same app, and that works in Claude, ChatGPT, or any other assistant you connect through Composio. Give each Grafana connection a name such as work or personal, and the assistant uses the one you mention in the request. Each account keeps its own credentials and nothing is merged.

The connection stops working the moment Grafana rejects the old key. Create a new key in Grafana and reconnect the account from the Composio dashboard or by asking your agent to reconnect Grafana. Nothing else changes.

Composio's free plan includes 100,000 tool calls per month with no credit card, which covers most personal Grafana use. Paid plans add higher limits and team features. Your Grafana plan and its API limits still apply as usual.

Built-in connectors usually give one AI access to a limited set of apps. Many people use Composio because it lets their AI connect to more apps than it normally supports, or connect to multiple accounts for the same app (e.g. connect Claude to multiple Grafana accounts).

With Composio, you connect Grafana once and then use it across different AI assistants without setting it up separately in each one. Connect your apps to Composio once, then connect Composio to whichever AI you use, whether that's Claude, ChatGPT, Hermes, or your own custom assistant.
