30 Grafana tools available to Sim agents.
Search and list all dashboards
Get a dashboard by its UID
Create a new dashboard
Update an existing dashboard. Fetches the current dashboard and merges your changes.
Delete a dashboard by its UID
List all alert rules in the Grafana instance
Get a specific alert rule by its UID
Read an alert rule group: its evaluation interval and every rule in it. The interval is the group-level knob that decides how often those rules are evaluated, which the individual alert rule operations do not expose.
Create a new alert rule
Update an existing alert rule. Fetches the current rule and merges your changes.
Delete an alert rule by its UID
List all alert notification contact points
Create a notification contact point (e.g., Slack, email, PagerDuty)
Replace a contact point by its UID. Grafana has no partial update for contact points, so every field is rewritten — resend the name, type, and full settings, or the omitted ones are reset.
Permanently delete a contact point by its UID. Grafana refuses the delete while the contact point is still referenced by the notification policy tree or by an alert rule.
Create an annotation on a dashboard or as a global annotation
Query annotations by time range, dashboard, or tags
Update an existing annotation
Delete an annotation by its ID
List all data sources configured in Grafana
Get a data source by its ID or UID
Run one or more queries against a Grafana data source that has a backend implementation, and read the values back. This is how you get actual metric numbers out of Grafana rather than dashboard or alert configuration.
Test connectivity to a data source by its UID
List all folders in Grafana
Create a new folder in Grafana
Get a folder by its UID
Update (rename) a folder. Fetches the current folder and merges your changes.
Delete a folder by its UID
Move a folder under a different parent folder, or to the root by leaving the parent empty. Returns the folder with its new ancestry.
Check the health of the Grafana instance (version, database status)
Sim's Grafana integration adds 30 tools to the AI agents you build in Sim's visual workflow builder. Interact with Grafana dashboards, alerts, and annotations.
