@IzakMarais please can you help me here: I want to run grafana-reporter in the background. I need it because I restart my pc frequently and I want to get rid of the process where I have to open terminal and need to type "grafana-reporter". how can I do it? does it possible?

Sure, you can run it in the background just like any other process. There are many different ways to do that depending on your OS. However, that is not a feature of the process (grafana-reporter) but of the OS. Do an internet search for running a process in the background. Options that come to mind are bash &, screen or systemd.

Hi I have tried it with batch file. It starts the grafana-reporter but it is not hiding the console. Do you know, can we hide grafana-reporter process ?

start /min cmd /c "your batch file".

use this in your new batch file and run it with startup.
