Setup

There are no requirements or dependencies to test the highlight.io data source in our demo environment.

To use this data source for your cloud-managed project, you must be an enterprise customer. If you're interested in getting this set up, please reach out to us at support@highlight.io.

Installation

The highlight.io data source plugin is available in the Grafana plugin catalog. You can install the plugin following the instructions here.

Configuration

Once you have installed the highlight.io plugin, you can add a new data source and configure it with these fields:

Configuration

NameDescription
Highlight Backend URLThe URL used to query highlight.io data. If you are using cloud-managed highlight.io, set this to https://pri.highlight.io.
OAuth Token URLThe URL used to retrieve an OAuth access token. If you are using cloud-managed highlight.io, set this to https://pri.highlight.io/oauth/token.
Project IDThe highlight.io project ID, accessible from the URL slug of your highlight.io project, e.g. https://app.highlight.io/{project_id}/. If you want to query data from multiple projects, you can set up multiple data sources. To query the demo project, set this to 1344.
Client IDIf you are using cloud-managed highlight.io, set this to your OAuth client ID. If you are setting up the data source for the first time and need a client ID, reach out to us at support@highlight.io. If you are self-hosting highlight.io, follow the instructions below to set up OAuth credentials. If you are using the demo project, leave this blank.
Client SecretIf you are using cloud-managed highlight.io, set this to your OAuth client secret. If you are setting up the data source for the first time and need a client secret, reach out to us at support@highlight.io. If you are self-hosting highlight.io, follow the instructions below to set up OAuth credentials. If you are using the demo project, leave this blank.

With these fields filled out, Save & test will run a health check to verify that the data source is able to query highlight.io data.

Self-hosted OAuth setup

The highlight.io data source authenticates as a highlight.io user (by ADMIN_ID) via OAuth. If you are self-hosting highlight.io, you need to set up OAuth credentials in your own instance. You can create your own CLIENT_ID and CLIENT_SECRET and set up the relevant permissions with the following script:

insert into o_auth_client_stores (id, secret, domains, app_name, admin_id) values ('<CLIENT_ID>', '<CLIENT_SECRET>', '{highlight.io}', 'highlight.io', <ADMIN_ID>); insert into o_auth_operations (client_id, authorized_graph_ql_operation, minute_rate_limit) values ('<CLIENT_ID>', 'admin', 600), ('<CLIENT_ID>', 'traces_metrics', 600), ('<CLIENT_ID>', 'traces_keys', 600), ('<CLIENT_ID>', 'logs_metrics', 600), ('<CLIENT_ID>', 'logs_keys', 600), ('<CLIENT_ID>', 'errors_metrics', 600), ('<CLIENT_ID>', 'errors_keys', 600), ('<CLIENT_ID>', 'sessions_metrics', 600), ('<CLIENT_ID>', 'sessions_keys', 600)
