Snapshot🔗

A dashboard snapshot shares an interactive dashboard publicly.

It is a read-only version of a dashboard, and is not editable.

It is possible to create a snapshot of a snapshot.

Grafana strips away all sensitive information from the dashboard.

Sensitive information stripped: queries (metric, template,annotation) and panel links.

Methods🔗

UnmarshalJSONStrict🔗

UnmarshalJSONStrict implements a custom JSON unmarshalling logic to decode Snapshot from JSON.

Note: the unmarshalling done by this function is strict. It will fail over required fields being absent from the input, fields having an incorrect type, unexpected fields being present, …

func (snapshot *Snapshot) UnmarshalJSONStrict(raw []byte) error

Equals🔗

Equals tests the equality of two Snapshot objects.

func (snapshot *Snapshot) Equals(other Snapshot) bool

Validate🔗

Validate checks all the validation constraints that may be defined on Snapshot fields for violations and returns them.

func (snapshot *Snapshot) Validate() error
