Dashboard Permissions API

Use the Dashboard Permissions API to update or retrieve the permissions for a dashboard.

Permissions with dashboardId=-1 are the default permissions for users with the Viewer and Editor roles. Permissions can be set for a user, a team or a role (Viewer or Editor). Permissions cannot be set for Admins - they always have access to everything.

The permission levels for the permission field are as follows:

  • 1 = View

  • 2 = Edit

  • 4 = Admin

Note

To use a Grafana API with your Amazon Managed Grafana workspace, you must have a valid Grafana API token. You include this in the Authorization field in the API request. For information about how to create a token to authenticate your API calls, see Authenticate with tokens.
