Hi guys in my first post i dindt explain my problem properly, im trying to export some data from Graylog to GRAFANA. Its a very simple query:

I need the number of logs for each person in a table (aggregation,2 columns, format: data table, count() as metric, and name as filter), and then export this table to see it GRAFAN via api.

Since legacy is disabled, I cant find a way to get via api this info.

WHAT I NEED is to know which URL or what query insert in Grafana via Infinity plugin to get that info from Graylog dashboards.

I have been testing and fining a way out too much time.  
Maybe somebody can help me, thanks.

Hello,

I just check out Infinity plugin and it didn’t work as well as I thought.

Graylog is capable of enable Prometheus in the configuration file then connect it through the Prometheus plugin on Grafana.

You can find out HowTo here.

[https://docs.graylog.org/docs/metrics](https://docs.graylog.org/docs/metrics)

If you need information on your Graylog Dashboards you can find the API’s in `System/Nodes` this will help grab your data as needed.

I believe this link will help understand what you need for API/URL needed.

Hope that helps
