We will need to confirm the use of trusted.gpg.d keys on any installation of grafana as the apt-key is deprecated and creates a security breach for the same keys to be used in other repositories.
The way apt-key works is by adding the keys to the /etc/apt/trusted.gpg file. The apt package manager trusts the keys inside this file. However, it was discovered to be a potential security issue. Your system trusts those keys completely, not just for the packages you added them for. Imagine that you added keys to repository A to get package AA and to repo B to get package BB. Your system will gladly accept package BB signed by the key of repo A. It cannot relate the keys to their respective packages. Hence, there is a potential for a security breach.
Ubuntu doesn’t want you to add all the signature keys in the single /etc/apt/trusted.gpg file. It suggests using a separate file that are located in the /etc/apt/trusted.gpg.d directory.

A good resource - look at step 3 for installation guidance for trusted.gpd.d keys. (The other steps are not applicable and the same can be accomplished other better ways) : https://www.rosehosting.com/blog/how-to-install-grafana-on-ubuntu-22-04/
