Connect to an AWS IoT SiteWise data source
Note
In workspaces that support version 9 or newer, this data source might require you to install the appropriate plugin. For more information, see Extend your workspace with plugins.
With Amazon Managed Grafana, you can add AWS IoT SiteWise as a data source by using the AWS data source configuration option in the Grafana workspace console. This feature simplifies adding AWS IoT SiteWise as a data source by discovering your existing AWS IoT SiteWise accounts and manages the configuration of the authentication credentials that are required to access AWS IoT SiteWise. You can use this method to set up authentication and add AWS IoT SiteWise as a data source, or you can manually set up the data source and the necessary authentication credentials using the same method that you would on a self-managed Grafana server.
