Status history panel
This documentation topic is designed for Grafana workspaces that support Grafana version 9.x.
For Grafana workspaces that support Grafana version 10.x, see Working in Grafana version 10.
For Grafana workspaces that support Grafana version 8.x, see Working in Grafana version 8.
The Status history visualization shows periodic states over time. Each field or series is rendered as a horizontal row. Boxes are rendered and centered around each value.
Status history visualization works with string, boolean, and numerical fields or time series. A time field is required. You can use value mappings to color strings or assign text values to numerical ranges.
Display options
Use these options to refine your visualizations:
Show values
Controls whether values are rendered inside the value boxes. Auto will render values if there is sufficient space.
Column width controls the width of boxes. 1=max and 0=Min width.
Line width controls line width of state regions.
Fill opacity controls the fill opacity of state regions.
Value mappings
To assign colors to boolean or string values, use Configure value mappings.
Time series data with thresholds
The panel can be used with time series data as well. In this case, the thresholds are used to color the boxes. You can also use gradient color schemes to color values.
Legend options
When the legend option is enabled, it can show either the value mappings or the threshold brackets. To show the value mappings in the legend, it’s important that the Color scheme option under Standard options is set to Single color or Classic palette. To see the threshold brackets in the legend set the Color scheme to From thresholds.
Legend mode Use these settings to refine how the legend appears in your visualization.
-

-
Table – Displays the legend as a table.
-
Hidden – Hides the legend.
Legend placement Choose where to place the legend.
-
