Install Grafana plugins

1. Click the plugin, and then click the Installation tab.

On the Installation tab, in the For field, click the name of the Grafana instance that you want to install the plugin on.

Install plugin on local Grafana

Follow the instructions on the Install tab. You can either install the plugin with a Grafana CLI command or by downloading and uncompress a .zip file into the Grafana plugins directory. We recommend using Grafana CLI in most instances. The .zip option is available if your Grafana server does not have access to the internet.

As of Grafana v8.0, a plugin catalog app was introduced in order to make managing plugins easier. For more information, refer to Plugin catalog.

The path to the plugin directory is defined in the configuration file. For more information, refer to Configuration.
