 Migration of Silences is not supported by the migration assistant and needs to be configured manually. Alert History is also not available for migration.

+Attempting to migrate a large number of alert rules might result in the following error:

+Maximum number of alert rule groups reached: Delete some alert rule groups or upgrade your plan and try again.

 # Variables

+A variable is a placeholder for a value.
+When you change the value, the element using the variable will change to reflect the new value.
+
+Variables are displayed as drop-down lists (or in some cases text fields) at the top of the dashboard.
+These drop-down lists make it easy to update the variable value and thus change the data being displayed in your dashboard.
+
+For example, if you needed to monitor several servers, you _could_ make a dashboard for each server.
+Or you could create one dashboard and use panels with variables like this one, where you can change the server using the variable selector:
+
+{{< figure src="/media/docs/grafana/dashboards/screenshot-selected-variables-v12.png" max-width="750px" alt="Variable drop-down open and two values selected" >}}
+
+Variables allow you to create more interactive dashboards.
+Instead of hard-coding things like server, application, and sensor names in your metric queries, you can use variables in their place.
+They're useful for administrators who want to allow Grafana viewers to adjust visualizations without giving them full editing permissions.
+
+Using variables also allows you to single-source dashboards.
+If you have multiple identical data sources or servers, you can make one dashboard and use variables to change what you are viewing.
+This simplifies maintenance and upkeep enormously.
+
 {{< youtube id="mMUJ3iwIYwc" >}}

+You can use variables in:
+
+- Data source queries
+- [Panel repeating options](https://grafana.com/docs/grafana/<GRAFANA_VERSION>/panels-visualizations/configure-panel-options/#configure-repeating-panels)

+
+## Template variables {#templates}
+
+A _template_ is any query that contains a variable.
+Queries with text that starts with `$` are templates.
+
+{{< admonition type="note">}}
+In our documentation and in the application, we typically simply refer to a _template query_ as a _query_, but we often use the terms _variable_ and _template variable_ interchangeably.
+{{< /admonition >}}
+
+For example, if you were administering a dashboard to monitor several servers, it could have panels that use template queries like this one:
+
+```text
+groupByNode(movingAverage(apps.$app.$server.counters.requests.count, 10), 2, 'sum')
+```
+
+The following image shows a panel in edit mode using the query:
+
+{{< figure src="/media/docs/grafana/dashboards/screenshot-template-query-v12.1.png" max-width="750px" alt="A panel using a template query" >}}
+
+### Variables in URLs
+
+Variable values are always synced to the URL using [query parameter syntax](https://grafana.com/docs/grafana/latest/dashboards/variables/variable-syntax/#query-parameters), `var-<varname>=value`.
+For example:
+
+```text
+https://play.grafana.org/d/HYaGDGIMk/templating-global-variables-and-interpolation?orgId=1&from=now-6h&to=now&timezone=utc&var-Server=CCC&var-MyCustomDashboardVariable=Hello%20World%21
+```
+
+In the preceding example, the variables and values are `var-Server=CCC` and `var-MyCustomDashboardVariable=Hello%20World%21`.
+
+## Additional examples
+
+The following dashboards in Grafana Play provide examples of template variables:
+
+- [Templating - Repeated panels](https://play.grafana.org/goto/yfZOReUNR?orgId=1) - Using query variables to control how many panels appear in a dashboard.
+- [Templating - Nested Variables Drilldown](https://play.grafana.org/d/testdata-nested-variables-drilldown/) - Demonstrates how changing one variable value can change the values available in a nested variable.
+- [Templating - Global variables and interpolation](https://play.grafana.org/d/HYaGDGIMk/) - Shows you how the syntax for Grafana variables works.
+
+## Next steps
+
 The following topics describe how to add and manage variables in your dashboards:

 {{< section >}}
-
-A variable is a placeholder for a value. You can use variables in metric queries and in panel titles. So when you change
-the value, using the dropdown at the top of the dashboard, your panel's metric queries will change to reflect the new value.
-
-Variables allow you to create more interactive and dynamic dashboards. Instead of hard-coding things like server, application,
-and sensor names in your metric queries, you can use variables in their place. Variables are displayed as dropdown lists at the top of
-the dashboard. These dropdowns make it easy to change the data being displayed in your dashboard.

-
-{{< docs/play title="Templating - Global variables and interpolation" url="https://play.grafana.org/d/HYaGDGIMk/" >}}
-
-Variables are useful for administrators who want to allow Grafana viewers to adjust visualizations without giving them full editing permissions. Grafana viewers can use variables.
-
-Variables and templates also allow you to single-source dashboards. If you have multiple identical data sources or servers, you can make one dashboard and use variables to change what you are viewing. This simplifies maintenance and upkeep enormously.
-
-## Templates
-
-A _template_ is any query that contains a variable.
-
-For example, if you were administering a dashboard to monitor several servers, you _could_ make a dashboard for each server. Or you could create one dashboard and use panels with template queries like this one:
-
-```
-wmi_system_threads{instance=~"$server"}
-```
-
-Variable values are always synced to the URL using the syntax `var-<varname>=value`.
-
-## Additional Examples
-
-Variables are listed in drop-down lists across the top of the screen. Select different variables to see how the visualizations change.
-
-To see variable settings, navigate to **Dashboard Settings > Variables**. Click a variable in the list to see its settings.
-
-Variables can be used in titles, descriptions, text panels, and queries. Queries with text that starts with `$` are templates. Not all panels will have template queries.
-
-The following dashboards in Grafana Play provide examples of template variables:
-

-## Variable best practices
-
- Variable drop-down lists are displayed in the order they are listed in the variable list in Dashboard settings.
- Put the variables that you will change often at the top, so they will be shown first (far left on the dashboard).
- By default, variables don't have a default value. This means that the topmost value in the drop-down is always preselected. If you want to pre-populate a variable with an empty value, you can use the following workaround in the variable settings:
-  1. Select the **Include All Option** checkbox.
-  2. In the **Custom all value** field, enter a value like `+`.

 ## Add a query variable

 Query variables enable you to write a data source query that can return a list of metric names, tag values, or keys. For example, a query variable might return a list of server names, sensor IDs, or data centers. The variable values change as they dynamically fetch options with a data source query.

 ## Use Grafana Assume Role

 {{< admonition type="note" >}}
-Grafana Assume Role is currently in [private preview](https://grafana.com/docs/release-life-cycle/) for Grafana Cloud.
+Grafana Assume Role is only available in Grafana Cloud.

-It's currently only available for Amazon CloudWatch.
-
-To gain early access to this feature, contact Customer Support and ask for the `awsDatasourcesTempCredentials` feature toggle to be enabled on your account.
+It's currently only available for Amazon CloudWatch and Athena.
 {{< /admonition >}}

 The Grafana Assume Role authentication provider lets you authenticate with AWS without having to create and maintain long term AWS users or rotate their access and secret keys. Instead, you can create an IAM role that has permissions to access CloudWatch and a trust relationship with Grafana's AWS account. Grafana's AWS account then makes an STS request to AWS to create temporary credentials to access your AWS data. It makes this STS request by passing along an `externalID` that's unique per Cloud account, to ensure that Grafana Cloud users can only access their own AWS data. For more information, refer to the [AWS documentation on external ID](https://docs.aws.amazon.com/IAM/latest/UserGuide/id_roles_create_for-user_externalid.html).

 To use the Grafana Assume Role:

-1. Grafana Cloud customers need to open a support ticket to enable the feature `awsDatasourcesTempCredentials`.
-   This feature is enabled by default in open source Grafana and Grafana Enterprise.
-2. Once the feature is enabled, create a new CloudWatch data source (or update an existing one) and select **Grafana Assume Role** as an authentication provider.
-3. In the AWS Console, create a new IAM role, and under **Trusted entity type**, select **Another AWS account** as the trusted Entity.
-4. Enter Grafana's account id (displayed in the instructions box on the **Settings** tab of the CloudWatch data source configuration) and check the **Require external ID** box.
-5. Enter the external ID specified in the instructions box on the **Settings** tab of the CloudWatch data source configuration in Grafana. This external ID will be unique to your Grafana instance.
-6. Attach any required permissions you would like Grafana to be able to access on your behalf (for example, CloudWatch Logs and CloudWatch Metrics policies).
-7. Give the role a name and description, and click **Create role**.
-8. Copy the ARN of the role you just created and paste it into the **Assume Role ARN** field on the **Settings** tab of CloudWatch data source configuration in Grafana.

+Grafana ships with built-in support for Microsoft SQL Server (MSSQL).
+You can query and visualize data from any Microsoft SQL Server 2005 or newer, including the Microsoft Azure SQL Database.

-This topic explains configuration specific to the Microsoft SQL Server data source.
+Use this data source to create dashboards, explore SQL data, and monitor MSSQL-based workloads in real time.

-For instructions on how to add a data source to Grafana, refer to the [administration documentation](ref:data-source-management).
-Only users with the organization administrator role can add data sources.
-Administrators can also [configure the data source via YAML](#provision-the-data-source) with Grafana's provisioning system.
+The following documentation helps you get started working with the Microsoft SQL Server (MSSQL) data source:

-Once you've added the Microsoft SQL Server data source, you can [configure it](#configure-the-data-source) so that your Grafana instance's users can create queries in its [query editor](query-editor/) when they [build dashboards](ref:build-dashboards) and use [Explore](ref:explore).

-| **Max lifetime**    | Sets the maximum number of seconds that the data source can reuse a connection. Default is `14400` (4 hours).                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                      |
-
-You can also configure settings specific to the Microsoft SQL Server data source. These options are described in the sections below.
-
-### Min time interval
-
-The **Min time interval** setting defines a lower limit for the [`$__interval`](ref:add-template-variables-interval) and [`$__interval_ms`][add-template-variables-interval_ms] variables.
-
-This value _must_ be formatted as a number followed by a valid time identifier:
-
-| Identifier | Description |
-| ---------- | ----------- |
-| `y`        | year        |
-| `M`        | month       |
-| `w`        | week        |
-| `d`        | day         |
-| `h`        | hour        |
-| `m`        | minute      |
-| `s`        | second      |
-| `ms`       | millisecond |
-
-We recommend setting this value to match your Microsoft SQL Server write frequency.
-For example, use `1m` if Microsoft SQL Server writes data every minute.
-
-You can also override this setting in a dashboard panel under its data source options.
-
-### Connection timeout
-
-The **Connection timeout** setting defines the maximum number of seconds to wait for a connection to the database before timing out. Default is 0 for no timeout.
-
-### UDP Preference Limit
-
-The **UDP Preference Limit** setting defines the maximum size packet that the Kerberos libraries will attempt to send over a UDP connection before retrying with TCP. Default is 1 which means always use TCP.
-
-### DNS Lookup KDC
-
-The **DNS Lookup KDC** setting controls whether to [lookup KDC in DNS](https://web.mit.edu/kerberos/krb5-latest/doc/admin/realm_config.html#mapping-hostnames-onto-kerberos-realms). Default is true.
-
-### KRB5 config file path
-
-The **KRB5 config file path** stores the location of the `krb5` config file. Default is `/etc/krb5.conf`
-
-### Database user permissions
-
-Grafana doesn't validate that a query is safe, and could include any SQL statement.
-For example, Microsoft SQL Server would execute destructive queries like `DELETE FROM user;` and `DROP TABLE user;` if the querying user has permission to do so.
-
-To protect against this, we strongly recommend that you create a specific MS SQL user with restricted permissions.
-
-Grant only `SELECT` permissions on the specified database and tables that you want to query to the database user you specified when you added the data source:
-
-```sql
-CREATE USER grafanareader WITH PASSWORD 'password'
-GRANT SELECT ON dbo.YourTable3 TO grafanareader
-```
-
-Also, ensure that the user doesn't have any unwanted privileges from the public role.
-
-### Diagnose connection issues
-
-If you use older versions of Microsoft SQL Server, such as 2008 and 2008R2, you might need to disable encryption before you can connect the data source.
-
-We recommend that you use the latest available service pack for optimal compatibility.
-
-### Provision the data source
-
-You can define and configure the data source in YAML files as part of Grafana's provisioning system.
-For more information about provisioning, and for available configuration options, refer to [Provisioning Grafana](ref:provisioning-data-sources).
-
-#### Provisioning example
-
-```yaml
-apiVersion: 1
-
-datasources:
-  - name: MSSQL
-    type: mssql
-    url: localhost:1433
-    user: grafana
-    jsonData:
-      database: grafana
-      maxOpenConns: 100
-      maxIdleConns: 100
-      maxIdleConnsAuto: true
-      connMaxLifetime: 14400
-      connectionTimeout: 0
-      encrypt: 'false'
-    secureJsonData:
-      password: 'Password!'
-```
-
-## Query the data source
-
-You can create queries with the Microsoft SQL Server data source's query editor when editing a panel that uses a MS SQL data source.
-
-For details, refer to the [query editor documentation](query-editor/).
-
-## Use template variables
-
-Instead of hard-coding details such as server, application, and sensor names in metric queries, you can use variables.
-Grafana lists these variables in dropdown select boxes at the top of the dashboard to help you change the data displayed in your dashboard.
-Grafana refers to such variables as template variables.
-
-For details, see the [template variables documentation](template-variables/).
+- Create a wide variety of [visualizations](ref:visualizations)
+- Configure and use [templates and variables](ref:variables)
+- Add [transformations](ref:transformations)

+# Configure the Microsoft SQL Server data source
+
+This document provides instructions for configuring the Microsoft SQL Server data source and explains available configuration options. For general information on adding and managing data sources, refer to [Grafana data sources](ref:data-sources) and [Data source management](ref:data-source-management).
+
+## Before you begin
+
+- Grafana comes with a built-in MSSQL data source plugin, eliminating the need to install a plugin.
+
+- You must have the `Organization administrator` role to configure the MSSQL data source. Organization administrators can also [configure the data source via YAML](#provision-the-data-source) with the Grafana provisioning system.
+
+- Familiarize yourself with your MSSQL security configuration and gather any necessary security certificates and client keys.
+
+- Verify that data from MSSQL is being written to your Grafana instance.
+
+## Add the MSSQL data source
+
+To add the MSSQL data source, complete the following steps:
+
+1. Click **Connections** in the left-side menu.
+1. Click **Add new connection**
+1. Type `Microsoft SQL Server` in the search bar.
+1. Select **Microsoft SQL Server** under data source.
+1. Click **Add new data source** in the upper right.
+
+Grafana takes you to the **Settings** tab, where you will set up your Microsoft SQL Server configuration.
+
+## Configure the data source in the UI
+
+Following are configuration options for the Microsoft SQL Server data source.
+
+{{< admonition type="warning" >}}
+Kerberos is not supported in Grafana Cloud.

+| --------------- | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ |
+| **Disable**     | Data sent between the client and server is **not encrypted**.                                    |
+| **False**       | The default setting. Only the login packet is encrypted; **all other data is sent unencrypted**. |
+| **True**        | **All data** sent between the client and server is **encrypted**.                                |
+
+{{< admonition type="note" >}}
+If you're using an older version of Microsoft SQL Server like 2008 and 2008R2, you may need to disable encryption to be able to connect.

+
+**Additional settings:**
+
+Additional settings are optional settings you configure for more control over your data source. This includes connection limits, connection timeout, group-by time interval, and Secure Socks Proxy.
+
+**Connection limits**:
+
+| Setting           | Description                                                                                                                                                                                  |
+| ----------------- | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
+| **Max open**      | The maximum number of open connections to the database. If set to `0`, there is no limit. If `max open` is greater than `0` and less than `max idle`, `max idle` is adjusted to match.       |
+| **Auto max idle** | When enabled, automatically sets `max idle` to match `max open`. If `max open` isn’t set, it defaults to `100`.                                                                              |
+| **Max idle**      | The maximum number of idle connections in the pool. If `max open` is set and is lower than `max idle`, then `max idle` is reduced to match. If set to `0`, no idle connections are retained. |
+| **Max lifetime**  | The maximum time (in seconds) a connection can be reused before being closed and replaced. If set to `0`, connections are reused indefinitely.                                               |
+
+**Connection details:**
+
+| **Setting**            | **Description**                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                   |
+| ---------------------- | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
+| **Min time interval**  | Specifies the lower bound for the auto-generated `GROUP BY` time interval. Grafana recommends matching this value to your data's write frequency—for example, `1m` if data is written every minute. Refer to [Min time interval](#min-time-interval) for details. |
+| **Connection timeout** | Specifies the maximum number of seconds to wait when attempting to connect to the database before timing out. A value of `0` (the default) disables the timeout.                                                                                                  |
+
+**Windows ADS Advanced Settings**
+
+| Setting                   | Description                                                                                                                                                                                                             | Default              |
+| ------------------------- | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | -------------------- |
+| **UDP Preference Limit**  | Defines the maximum packet size (in bytes) that Kerberos libraries will attempt to send over UDP before retrying with TCP. A value of `1` forces all communication to use TCP.                                          | `1` (always use TCP) |
+| **DNS Lookup KDC**        | Controls whether DNS `SRV` records are used to locate [Key Distribution Centers (KDCs)](https://web.mit.edu/kerberos/krb5-latest/doc/admin/realm_config.html#key-distribution-centers) and other servers for the realm. | `true`               |
+| **krb5 config file path** | Specifies the path to the Kerberos configuration file used by the [MIT krb5 package](https://web.mit.edu/kerberos/krb5-1.12/doc/admin/conf_files/krb5_conf.html).                                                       | `/etc/krb5.conf`     |
+
+**Private data source connect** - _Only for Grafana Cloud users._
+
+Private data source connect, or PDC, allows you to establish a private, secured connection between a Grafana Cloud instance, or stack, and data sources secured within a private network. Click the drop-down to locate the URL for PDC. For more information regarding Grafana PDC refer to [Private data source connect (PDC)](ref:private-data-source-connect) and [Configure Grafana private data source connect (PDC)](ref:configure-pdc) for instructions on setting up a PDC connection.
+
+Click **Manage private data source connect** to open your PDC connection page and view your configuration details.
+
+After configuring your MSSQL data source options, click **Save & test** at the bottom to test the connection. You should see a confirmation dialog box that says:
+
+**Database Connection OK**
+
+### Min time interval
+
+The **Min time interval** setting defines a lower limit for the [`$__interval`](ref:add-template-variables-interval) and [`$__interval_ms`][add-template-variables-interval_ms] variables.
+
+This value _must_ be formatted as a number followed by a valid time identifier:
+
+| Identifier | Description |
+| ---------- | ----------- |
+| `y`        | year        |
+| `M`        | month       |
+| `w`        | week        |
+| `d`        | day         |
+| `h`        | hour        |
+| `m`        | minute      |
+| `s`        | second      |
+| `ms`       | millisecond |
+
+Grafana recommends setting this value to match your Microsoft SQL Server write frequency.
+For example, use `1m` if Microsoft SQL Server writes data every minute.
+
+You can also override this setting in a dashboard panel under its data source options.
+
+### Database user permissions
+
+When adding a data source, ensure the database user you specify has only SELECT permissions on the relevant database and tables. Grafana does not validate the safety of queries, which means they can include potentially harmful SQL statements, such as `USE otherdb`; or `DROP TABLE user;`, which could get executed. To minimize this risk, Grafana strongly recommends creating a dedicated MySQL user with restricted permissions.
+
+```sql
+CREATE USER grafanareader WITH PASSWORD 'password'
+GRANT SELECT ON dbo.YourTable3 TO grafanareader
+```
+
+Also, ensure that the user doesn't have any unwanted privileges from the public role.
+
+### Diagnose connection issues
+
+If you use older versions of Microsoft SQL Server, such as 2008 and 2008R2, you might need to disable encryption before you can connect the data source.
+
+Grafana recommends that you use the latest available service pack for optimal compatibility.
+
+### Provision the data source
+
+You can define and configure the data source in YAML files as part of the Grafana provisioning system. For more information about provisioning, and for available configuration options, refer to [Provision Grafana](ref:provision-grafana).
+
+#### Provisioning example
+
+```yaml
+apiVersion: 1
+
+datasources:
+  - name: MSSQL
+    type: mssql
+    url: localhost:1433
+    user: grafana
+    jsonData:
+      database: grafana
+      maxOpenConns: 100
+      maxIdleConns: 100
+      maxIdleConnsAuto: true
+      connMaxLifetime: 14400
+      connectionTimeout: 0
+      encrypt: 'false'
+    secureJsonData:
+      password: 'Password!'
+```

 # Microsoft SQL Server query editor

-You can create queries with the Microsoft SQL Server data source's query editor when editing a panel that uses a MS SQL data source.
+Grafana provides a query editor for the Microsoft SQL Server data source, which is located on the [Explore page](ref:explore). You can also access the MSSQL query editor from a dashboard panel. Click the menu in the upper right of the panel and select **Edit**.

-This topic explains querying specific to the MS SQL data source.
-For general documentation on querying data sources in Grafana, see [Query and transform data](ref:query-transform-data).

-You can configure a MS SQL-specific response format in the query editor regardless of its mode.
+**Builder mode** allows you to build queries using a visual interface. This mode is great for users who prefer a guided query experience or are just getting started with SQL.

-### Choose a response format
+{{< figure alt="MSSQL builder mode>"  src="/media/docs/mssql/mssql-builder-mode-v12.png" class="docs-image--no-shadow" >}}

-Grafana can format the response from MS SQL as either a table or as a time series.
+The following components will help you build a T-SQL query:

-To choose a response format, select either the **Table** or **Time series** formats from the **Format** dropdown.
+- **Format** - Select a format response from the drop-down for the MSSQL query. The default is **Table**. Refer to [Table queries](#table-queries) and [Time series queries](#time-series-queries) for more information and examples. If you select the **Time series** format option, you must include a `time` column.

-To use the time series format, you must name one of the MS SQL columns `time`.
-You can use time series queries, but not table queries, in alerting conditions.
+- **Dataset** - Select a database to query from the drop-down. Grafana automatically populates the drop-down with all databases the user has access to. If a default database is configured in the Data Source Configuration page or via a provisioning file, users will be limited to querying only that predefined database.

-For details about using these formats, refer to [Use table queries](#use-table-queries) and [Use time series queries](#use-time-series-queries).
+  Note that `tempdb`, `model`, `msdb`, and `master` system databases are not included in the query editor drop-down.
+
+- **Table** - Select a table from the drop-down. After selecting a database, the next drop-down displays all available tables in that database.
+
+- **Data operations** - _Optional_. Select an aggregation or a macro from the drop-down. You can add multiple data operations by clicking the **+ sign**. Click the **garbage can icon** to remove data operations.
+
+  - **Column** - Select a column on which to run the aggregation.
+  - **Interval** - Select an interval from the drop-down. You'll see this option when you choose a `time group` macro from the drop-down.
+  - **Fill** - _Optional_. Add a `FILL` method to populate missing time intervals with default values (such as NULL, 0, or a specified value) when no data exists for those intervals. This ensures continuity in the time series, avoiding gaps in visualizations.
+  - **Alias** - _Optional_. Add an alias from the drop-down. You can also add your own alias by typing it in the box and clicking **Enter**. Remove an alias by clicking the **X**.
+
+- **Filter** - Toggle to add filters.
+
+  - **Filter by column value** - _Optional_. If you toggle **Filter** you can add a column to filter by from the drop-down. To filter by additional columns, click the **+ sign** to the right of the condition drop-down. You can choose a variety of operators from the drop-down next to the condition. When multiple filters are added, use the `AND` or `OR` operators to define how conditions are evaluated. `AND` requires all conditions to be true, while `OR` requires any condition to be true. Use the second drop-down to select the filter value. To remove a filter, click the **X icon** next to it. If you select a `date-type` column, you can use macros from the operator list and choose `timeFilter` to insert the `$\_\_timeFilter` macro into your query with the selected date column.
+
+    After selecting a date type column, you can choose Macros from the operators list and select timeFilter which will add the `$\_\_timeFilter` macro to the query with the selected date column. Refer to [Macros](#macros) for more information.
+
+- **Group** - Toggle to add a `GROUP BY` column.
+  - **Group by column** - Select a column to filter by from the drop-down. Click the **+sign** to filter by multiple columns. Click the **X** to remove a filter.
+- **Order** - Toggle to add an `ORDER BY` statement.
+  - **Order by** - Select a column to order by from the drop-down. Select ascending (`ASC`) or descending (`DESC`) order.
+  - **Limit** - You can add an optional limit on the number of retrieved results. Default is 50.
+- **Preview** - Toggle for a preview of the SQL query generated by the query builder. Preview is toggled on by default.
+
+For additional detail about using formats, refer to [Table queries](#table-queries) and [Time series queries](#time-series-queries).

 ## Query variable

-If you add a template variable of the type `Query`, you can write a MS SQL query that can
-return things like measurement names, key names or key values that are shown as a dropdown select box.
+A query variable in Grafana dynamically retrieves values from your data source using a query. With a query variable, you can write a SQL query that returns values such as measurement names, key names, or key values that are shown in a drop-down select box.

-For example, you can have a variable that contains all values for the `hostname` column in a table if you specify a query like this in the templating variable **Query** setting.
+For example, the following query returns all values from the `hostname` column:

 ```sql
 SELECT hostname FROM host
 ```

-A query can return multiple columns and Grafana will automatically create a list from them. For example, the query below will return a list with values from `hostname` and `hostname2`.
+A query can return multiple columns, and Grafana automatically generates a list using the values from those columns. For example, the following query returns values from both the `hostname` and `hostname2` columns, which are included in the variable's drop-down list.

 ```sql
 SELECT [host].[hostname], [other_host].[hostname2] FROM host JOIN other_host ON [host].[city] = [other_host].[city]
 ```

-Another option is a query that can create a key/value variable. The query should return two columns that are named `__text` and `__value`. The `__text` column value should be unique (if it is not unique then the first value is used). The options in the dropdown will have a text and value that allow you to have a friendly name as text and an id as the value. An example query with `hostname` as the text and `id` as the value:
+You can also create a key/value variable using a query that returns two columns named `__text` and `__value`.
+
+- The `__text` column defines the label shown in the drop-down.
+
+- The `__value` column defines the value passed to panel queries.
+
+This is useful when you want to display a user-friendly label (like a hostname) but use a different underlying value (like an ID).
+
+Note that the values in the `_text` column should be unique. If there are duplicates, Grafana uses only the first matching entry.

 ```sql
 SELECT hostname __text, id __value FROM host
 ```

-When adding a data source, ensure the database user you specify has only `SELECT` permissions on the relevant database and tables. Grafana does not validate the safety of queries, which means they can include potentially harmful SQL statements, such as `USE otherdb;` or `DROP TABLE user;`, which could get executed. To minimize this risk, Grafana strongly recommends creating a dedicated MySQL user with restricted permissions.

-A time series query result is returned in a [wide data frame format](https://grafana.com/developers/plugin-tools/key-concepts/data-frames#wide-format). Any column except time or of type string transforms into value fields in the data frame query result. Any string column transforms into field labels in the data frame query result.
-
 {{< admonition type="note" >}}
 For backward compatibility, an exception to the aforementioned rule applies to queries returning three columns, including a string column named `metric`. Instead of converting the metric column into field labels, it is used as the field name, and the series name is set to the value of the metric column. Refer to the following example with a metric column.

 When adding a data source, the database user you specify should have only `SELECT` permissions on the relevant database and tables. Grafana does not validate the safety of queries, which means they can include potentially harmful SQL statements, such as `USE otherdb;` or `DROP TABLE user;`, that could be executed. To mitigate this risk, Grafana strongly recommends creating a dedicated PostgreSQL user with restricted permissions.

+## Grafana Foundation SDK Overview
+
+Here's a quick overview of how the Grafana Foundation SDK works:
+
+- **Builder pattern:** The SDK uses a chainable builder pattern to let you define dashboards fluently. You start with a `DashboardBuilder`, then add panels, queries, and other components step by step.
+- **Strong typing:** Everything in the SDK is strongly typed. This gives you autocompletion in your IDE, catches mistakes early, and helps ensure you're always using valid configuration values.
+- **Structured options:** When a configuration get complex (like data reduction or display settings), the SDK uses typed option builders to keep things readable and predictable.
+
+You'll see these concepts in action in the next example. These concepts are explained in more detail afterwards.

-The `build()` method generates a JSON representation of your dashboard, which you can:
+After you've defined your dashboard as code, build the final dashboard representation using the dashboard builder (typically using the `build()` function depending on language choice) and output the result as a JSON.
+
+With the JSON payload, you can:

- **Automate:** Use Grafana’s API to programmatically upload the dashboard JSON.
+- **Automate:** Use [Grafana’s API](../../developers/http_api/) or the [Grafana CLI](../grafana-cli/) to programmatically upload the dashboard JSON.
+
+## Concepts
+
+Now that you've seen how to define a basic dashboard using code, let's take a moment to explain how it all works behind the scenes. The Grafana Foundation SDK is built around a few core concepts that make your dashboards structured, reusable, and strongly typed.
+
+### Builders
+
+The SDK follows a builder pattern, which lets you compose dashboards step-by-step using chained method calls.
+Almost every piece of the dashboard, including dashboards, panels, rows, queries, and variables, has its own `Builder` class.
+
+Here are a few you've already seen:
+
+- `DashboardBuilder` - Starts the dashboard definition and sets global configuration settings like title, UID, refresh interval, time range, etc.
+- `PanelBuilder` - Creates individual visualizations like time series panels, stat panels, or log panels.
+- `DataqueryBuilder` - Defines how a panel fetches data, for example, from Prometheus or the `testdata` plugin.
+
+Builders are chainable, so you can fluently compose dashboards in a readable, structured way:
+
+{{< code >}}
+
+```go
+stat.NewPanelBuilder().
+  Title("Version").
+  Datasource(testdataRef).
+  ReduceOptions(common.NewReduceDataOptionsBuilder().
+    Calcs([]string{"lastNotNull"}).
+    Fields("/.*/")).
+  WithTarget(
+    testdata.NewDataqueryBuilder().
+      ScenarioId("csv_content").
+      CsvContent("version\nv1.2.3"),
+  )
+```
+
+```typescript
+new stat.PanelBuilder()
+  .title('Version')
+  .reduceOptions(new common.ReduceDataOptionsBuilder().calcs(['lastNotNull']).fields('/.*/'))
+  .datasource(testdataRef)
+  .withTarget(new testdata.DataqueryBuilder().scenarioId('csv_content').csvContent('version\nv1.2.3'));
+```
+
+{{< /code >}}
+
+### Types
+
+The Grafana Foundation SDK uses strong types under the hood to help catch mistakes before you deploy a broken dashboard.
+
+For example:
+
+- When setting a unit, you'll get autocomplete suggestions for valid Grafana units like `"percent"` or `"bps"`.
+- When defining a time range, you'll be guided to provide the correct structure, like `from` and `to` values.
+- When referencing data sources, you'll use a structured `DataSourceRef` object with defined `type` and `uid` fields.
+
+This helps you:
+
+- Avoid typos or unsupported configuration values
+- Get full autocomplete and inline documentation in your IDE
+- Write dashboards that are less error-prone and easier to maintain
+
+Strong typing also makes it easier to build reusable patterns and components with confidence, especially in large codebases or teams.
+
+### Options
+
+Most builder methods accept simple values like strings or numbers, but others expect more structured option objects. These are used for things like:
+
+- `ReduceDataOptions` - How to reduce time series data into single values (e.g. last, avg).
+- `VizLegendOptions` - Configure how the legend of a panel is displayed.
+- `CanvasElementOptions` - Define how the the various components of a Canvas panel should be displayed.
+
+Example using options:
+
+{{< code >}}
+
+```go
+stat.NewPanelBuilder().
+  ReduceOptions(common.NewReduceDataOptionsBuilder().
+    Calcs([]string{"lastNotNull"}).
+    Fields("/.*/"))
+  )
+```
+
+```typescript
+new stat.PanelBuilder().reduceOptions(new common.ReduceDataOptionsBuilder().calcs(['lastNotNull']).fields('/.*/'));
+```
+
+{{< /code >}}
+
+By using option builders, you don't need to manually construct deeply nested configuration objects. Instead, the SDK gives you a typed and guided API that mirrors a dashboards internal structure, making it easier to configure complex options without guesswork or referring back to the JSON schema.
+
+## Explore a real-world example
+
+If you want to explore further and see a more real-world example of using the Grafana Foundation SDK, watch the following walkthrough:
+
+{{< youtube id="ZjWdGVsrCiQ" >}}
+
+In this video, we generate a dashboard from code and deploy it using the Grafana API, covering patterns and practices you'd use in production environments. It also includes a working example of a web service that emits metrics and logs, and shows how to deploy a dashboard alongside it using Docker Compose.
+
+You can find the full source code for this example in the [intro-to-foundation-sdk repository](https://github.com/grafana/intro-to-foundation-sdk/tree/main/generate-and-deploy-example).
+
+## Summary
+
+The Grafana Foundation SDK is designed to make dashboard creation:
+
+- **Composable** through the use of chainable builders
+- **Safe** with strong typing and clear APIs
+- **Configurable** using structured options for fine control
+
+As you build more advanced dashboards, you’ll work with additional builders and types to support richer functionality.
+The SDK supports not just panels and queries, but also variables, thresholds, field overrides, transformations, and more.
+Refer to [the full API reference](https://grafana.github.io/grafana-foundation-sdk/) to explore what's possible.

+#### Sparkline

 This cell type shows values rendered as a sparkline.
 To show sparklines on data with multiple time series, use the [Time series to table transformation](ref:time-series-to-table-transformation) to process it into a format the table can show.

 ![Table using sparkline cell type](/media/docs/grafana/panels-visualizations/screenshot-table-as-sparkline-v11.3.png)

-You can customize sparklines with many of the same options as the [time series visualization](ref:time-series-panel) including line style and width, fill opacity, gradient mode, and more.
-You can also change the color of the sparkline by updating the [color scheme](ref:color-scheme) in the **Standard options** section of the panel configuration.
+The sparkline cell type options are described in the following table.
+For more detailed information about all of the sparkline styling options (except **Hide value**), refer to the [time series graph styles documentation](ref:graph-styles).

+| Line interpolation  | How the graph interpolates the series line. Choose from:<ul><li>**Linear** - Points are joined by straight lines.</li><li>**Smooth** - Points are joined by curved lines that smooths transitions between points.</li><li>**Step before** - The line is displayed as steps between points. Points are rendered at the end of the step.</li><li>**Step after** - The line is displayed as steps between points. Points are rendered at the beginning of the step.</li></ul> |
+| Line width          | The thickness of the series lines or the outline for bars using the **Line width** slider. |
+| Fill opacity        | The series area fill color using the **Fill opacity** slider. |
+| Gradient mode       | Gradient mode controls the gradient fill, which is based on the series color. Gradient appearance is influenced by the **Fill opacity** setting. To change the color, use the standard color scheme field option. For more information, refer to [Color scheme](ref:color-scheme). Choose from:<ul><li>**None** - No gradient fill. This is the default setting.</li><li>**Opacity** - An opacity gradient where the opacity of the fill increases as y-axis values increase.</li><li>**Hue** - A subtle gradient that's based on the hue of the series color.</li></ul>                                                                                                    |

+| Connect null values | How null values, which are gaps in the data, appear on the graph. Null values can be connected to form a continuous line or set to a threshold above which gaps in the data are no longer connected. Choose from:<ul><li>**Never** - Time series data points with gaps in the data are never connected.</li><li>**Always** - Time series data points with gaps in the data are always connected.</li><li>**Threshold** - Specify a threshold above which gaps in the data are no longer connected. This can be useful when the connected gaps in the data are of a known size or within a known range, and gaps outside this range should no longer be connected.</li></ul> |
+| Show points         | Whether to show data points to lines or bars. Choose from: <ul><li>**Auto** - Grafana determines a point's visibility based on the density of the data. If the density is low, then points appear.</li><li>**Always** - Show the points regardless of how dense the dataset is.</li><li>**Never** - Don't show points.</li></ul> |
+| Point size          | Set the size of the points, from 1 to 40 pixels in diameter. |

+### Troubleshoot Graph API calls
+
+When setting up SAML authentication with Azure AD, you may encounter issues with Graph API calls. This can happen if the Azure AD application is not properly configured to allow Graph API access.
+
+To help in the troubleshooting process, test the Graph API calls using the following commands:
+
+```bash
+curl -X POST "{token_url}" \
+  -H "Content-Type: application/x-www-form-urlencoded" \
+  -d "grant_type=client_credentials&client_id={client_id}&client_secret={client_secret}&scope=https://graph.microsoft.com/.default"
+```
+
+Where the following values come from your [SAML configuration](../saml-configuration-options/_index.md#saml-configuration-options):
+
+- `token_url`: The token URL of your Azure AD application.
+- `client_id`: The client ID of your Azure AD application.
+- `client_secret`: The client secret of your Azure AD application.
+
+The response should look like:
+
+```json
+{
+  "access_token": "...ACCESS_TOKEN...",
+  "token_type": "Bearer",
+  "expires_in": 3600
+}
+```
+
+Use the `access_token` to test the Graph API calls.
+
+```bash
+curl -X GET "https://graph.microsoft.com/v1.0/groups" \
+  -H "Authorization: Bearer ${access_token}" \
+  -H "Content-Type: application/json"
+```
+
+The response should look like:
+
+```json
+{
+  "@odata.context": "https://graph.microsoft.com/v1.0/$metadata#Collection(Edm.String)",
+  "value": ["29f2e7c8-9b9d-443c-bc62-7d8cdcfcfe59", "f0224e82-0eb8-4eda-8979-0c36e98deb00"]
+}
+```
+
+If the second call fails due to 401 or 403, you may need to check the Azure AD application settings to ensure that Graph API access is enabled.

This means that users of specific teams or groups in LDAP, OAuth, or SAML will be automatically added or removed as members of corresponding teams in Grafana. Whenever a user logs in, Grafana will check for any changes in the teams or groups of the authentication provider and update the user's teams in Grafana accordingly.

+# What’s new in Grafana v12.1
+
+It’s 12.1 time! We’re really excited about GA for a new alert rule page that makes it easier to find what you need quickly, as well as the regression analysis transformation, helping you predict future data values or estimate missing data points that might not be exactly represented in the original dataset. Also, visualization actions now support custom variables. When triggered, actions prompt you to input whatever custom variable was defined, allowing you to tailor requests in real time without modifying dashboard configuration. This is super helpful for when you’re triggering alerts, filtering API calls, or sending user-defined parameters to external systems. And you can try out Grafana Advisor, which automatically detects plugin, data source, and SSO issues, keeping your Grafana instance healthy and secure.
+
+Speaking of security, Grafana now supports Entra Workload Identity, simplifying OAuth and increasing security for instances using Microsoft Azure. Thanks to community contributor [mehighlow](https://github.com/mehighlow) for this feature!
+
+We have one more community contributor to thank for this release. [Chris Hodges](https://github.com/chodges15) delivered server-configurable quick time ranges for dashboards. Now you can define custom time range presets for the time picker on dashboards, perfect for teams that routinely analyze specific, context-driven time windows.
+
+Keep reading to learn about what else we have in store for 12.1.
