Caution

Grafana Alloy is the new name for our distribution of the OTel collector. Grafana Agent has been deprecated and is in Long-Term Support (LTS) through October 31, 2025. Grafana Agent will reach an End-of-Life (EOL) on November 1, 2025. Read more about why we recommend migrating to Grafana Alloy.

Important: This documentation is about an older version. It's relevant only to the release noted, many of the features and functions have been updated or replaced. Please view the current version.

03 Integrations

Dynamic configuration requires the use of integrations-next feature flag, to allow arrays of integrations. In this we will load integrations of various types. This is all built on the previous examples.

docker run -v ${PWD}/:/etc/grafana grafana/agentctl:latest template-parse file:///etc/grafana/03_config.yml

Dynamic Configuration

config.yml

Tells the Grafana Agent where to load files from.

Integrations

Integrations are loaded from files matching integrations-*.yml and are combined together. You can declare for example multiple sets of redis_configs across several files.

integrations-node.yml

Note: You do NOT have to name the above file integrations-node.yml with node, integrations-1.yml would work the same. The name does NOT determine the type of integrations a template can contain and a template can contain integrations of different types.

yaml
node_exporter: {}

integrations-redis.yml

yaml
redis_configs:
  - redis_addr: localhost:6379
    autoscrape:
      metric_relabel_configs:
        - source_labels: [__address__]
          target_label: "banana"
          replacement: "apple"
  - redis_addr: localhost:6380

Final

final.yml

The final result should have 3 integrations enabled, 1 node_exporter and 2 redis.
