# Using Google Cloud Monitoring in Grafana
> Officially released in Grafana v6.0.0
Grafana ships with built-in support for Google Cloud Monitoring. Just add it as a data source and you are ready to build dashboards for your Google Cloud Monitoring metrics. Refer to [Add a data source]({{< relref "../add-a-data-source.md" >}}) for instructions on how to add a data source to Grafana. Only users with the organization admin role can add data sources.
> Before Grafana v7.1 this data source was named Google Stackdriver.
> **Note** Before Grafana v7.1, Google Cloud Monitoring was referred to as Google Stackdriver.
Grafana ships with built-in support for Google Cloud Monitoring. Just add it as a data source and you are ready to build dashboards for your Google Cloud Monitoring metrics.
## Google Cloud Monitoring settings
## Adding the data source
1. Open the side menu by clicking the Grafana icon in the top header.
1. In the side menu under the `Dashboards` link you should find a link named `Data Sources`.
1. Click the `+ Add data source` button in the top header.
1. Select `Google Cloud Monitoring` from the _Type_ dropdown.
1. Upload or paste in the Service Account Key file. See below for steps on how to create a Service Account Key file.
> **Note:** If you're not seeing the `Data Sources` link in your side menu, then your current user account does not have the `Admin` role for the current organization.
To access Google Cloud Monitoring settings, hover your mouse over the **Configuration** (gear) icon, then click **Data Sources**, and then click the Google Cloud Monitoring data source.
| Name | Description |
| --------------------- | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| `Name` | The data source name. This is how you refer to the data source in panels and queries. |
| `Default` | Default data source means that it will be pre-selected for new panels. |
| `Service Account Key` | Service Account Key File for a GCP Project. Instructions below on how to create it. |

## Out-of-the-box dashboards
> Only available in Grafana v7.3+.
The updated Cloud Monitoring data source ships with pre-configured dashboards for five of the most popular GCP services:
1. BigQuery
1. Cloud Load Balancing
1. Cloud SQL
1. Google Compute Engine `GCE`
1. Google Kubernetes Engine `GKE`
To import the pre-configured dashboards, go to the configuration page of a Cloud monitoring data source and click on the `Dashboards` tab. Click `Import` for the dashboard you would like to use.
The datasource of the newly created dashboard panels will be the one selected above.
The dashboards have a template variable which is populated with the projects accessible by the configured service account every time the dashboard is loaded. After the dashboard is loaded, you can select the project you prefer from the drop-down list.
To customize the dashboard, we recommend saving the dashboard under a different name, because otherwise the dashboard will be overwritten when a new version of the dashboard is released.
