Panels and visualizations

The panel is the basic visualization building block in Grafana. Each panel has a query editor specific to the data source selected in the panel. The query editor allows you to build a query that returns the data you want to visualize.

There are a wide variety of styling and formatting options for each panel. Panels can be dragged, dropped, and resized to rearrange them on the dashboard.

Before you add a panel, ensure that you have configured a data source.

  • For details about using data sources, refer to [Data sources][].

  • For more information about managing data sources as an administrator, refer to [Data source management][].

    {{% admonition type="note" %}} Data source management is only available in Grafana Enterprise and Grafana Cloud. {{% /admonition %}}
