Grafana - dashboard provisioning with folder structure failing

[cathyalex]

Hi, I'm unable to provision the dashboards from my filesystem to the grafana pod. I have enabled the "dashboardProviders" in values.yaml file as below.

dashboardProviders: dashboardproviders.yaml: apiVersion: 1 providers:

• name: 'general' orgId: 1 folder: '' type: file disableDeletion: false editable: true options: path: /var/lib/grafana/dashboards/ foldersFromFilesStructure: true

I have 2 folders under /var/lib/grafana/dashboards/ in my filesystem - lab-management and kubernetes.

Each folder has set of json files that needs to be imported.

But no dashboards are getting provisioned, when i check the grafana gui after deployment via helm.

I have enabled datasource section as well as shown below.

datasources: datasources.yaml: apiVersion: 1 datasources:

• name: Prometheus type: prometheus url: http://my-prometheus-url-sample access: proxy isDefault: true

I could see the configured datasource link in grafana gui but not able to see any dashboards. Could you please help? Also do we need to mount these dashboards in any volume or just enabling this "dashboardProviders" in values.yaml would suffice.

Thanks

Hi @cathyalex Can you provide more infos on which chart and image Version you are using? We are facing the same problem with

• chart: 6.15.0
• appVersion: 8.1.0

We downgraded to chart version 6.13.9 and there it looks fine.

bump version: "6.24.1" appVersion: 8.4.2

@cathyalex i resolved the issue with ensuring sidecarProvider was the name of the root folder for the dashboard provider:

    dashboards:
      enabled: true
      SCProvider: true
      folder: /tmp/dashboards
      defaultFolderName: "sidecarProvider"
      provider:
        name: "sidecarProvider"
        orgid: 1
        type: file
        disableDelete: true
        foldersFromFilesStructure: true
