# Prometheus integration > [Introduced][ce-8935] in GitLab 9.0. GitLab offers powerful integration with [Prometheus] for monitoring key metrics of your apps, directly within GitLab. Metrics for each environment are retrieved from Prometheus, and then displayed within the GitLab interface. ![Environment Dashboard](img/prometheus_dashboard.png) There are two ways to set up Prometheus integration, depending on where your apps are running: - For deployments on Kubernetes, GitLab can automatically [deploy and manage Prometheus](#managed-prometheus-on-kubernetes). - For other deployment targets, simply [specify the Prometheus server](#manual-configuration-of-prometheus). Once enabled, GitLab will automatically detect metrics from known services in the [metric library](#monitoring-cicd-environments). You are also able to [add your own metrics](#adding-additional-metrics-premium) as well. ## Enabling Prometheus Integration ### Managed Prometheus on Kubernetes > [Introduced](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab-foss/issues/28916) in GitLab 10.5. GitLab can seamlessly deploy and manage Prometheus on a [connected Kubernetes cluster](../clusters/index.md), making monitoring of your apps easy. #### Requirements - A [connected Kubernetes cluster](../clusters/index.md) - Helm Tiller [installed by GitLab](../clusters/index.md#installing-applications) #### Getting started Once you have a connected Kubernetes cluster with Helm installed, deploying a managed Prometheus is as easy as a single click. 1. Go to the **Operations > Kubernetes** page to view your connected clusters 1. Select the cluster you would like to deploy Prometheus to 1. Click the **Install** button to deploy Prometheus to the cluster ![Managed Prometheus Deploy](img/prometheus_deploy.png) #### Getting metrics to display on the Metrics Dashboard After completing the steps above, you will also need deployments in order to view the **Operations > Metrics** page. Setting up [Auto DevOps](../../../topics/autodevops/index.md) will help you to quickly create a deployment: 1. Navigate to your project's **Operations > Kubernetes** page, and ensure that, in addition to "Prometheus" and "Helm Tiller", you also have "Runner" and "Ingress" installed. Once "Ingress" is installed, copy its endpoint. 1. Navigate to your project's **Settings > CI/CD** page. In the Auto DevOps section, select a deployment strategy and save your changes. 1. On the same page, in the Variables section, add a variable named `KUBE_INGRESS_BASE_DOMAIN` with the value of the Ingress endpoint you have copied in the previous step. Leave the type as "Variable". 1. Navigate to your project's **CI/CD > Pipelines** page, and run a pipeline on any branch. 1. When the pipeline has run successfully, graphs will be available on the **Operations > Metrics** page. #### About managed Prometheus deployments Prometheus is deployed into the `gitlab-managed-apps` namespace, using the [official Helm chart](https://github.com/helm/charts/tree/master/stable/prometheus). Prometheus is only accessible within the cluster, with GitLab communicating through the [Kubernetes API](https://kubernetes.io/docs/concepts/overview/kubernetes-api/). The Prometheus server will [automatically detect and monitor](https://prometheus.io/docs/prometheus/latest/configuration/configuration/#kubernetes_sd_config) nodes, pods, and endpoints. To configure a resource to be monitored by Prometheus, simply set the following [Kubernetes annotations](https://kubernetes.io/docs/concepts/overview/working-with-objects/annotations/): - `prometheus.io/scrape` to `true` to enable monitoring of the resource. - `prometheus.io/port` to define the port of the metrics endpoint. - `prometheus.io/path` to define the path of the metrics endpoint. Defaults to `/metrics`. CPU and Memory consumption is monitored, but requires [naming conventions](prometheus_library/kubernetes.html#specifying-the-environment) in order to determine the environment. If you are using [Auto DevOps](../../../topics/autodevops/), this is handled automatically. The [NGINX Ingress](../clusters/index.md#installing-applications) that is deployed by GitLab to clusters, is automatically annotated for monitoring providing key response metrics: latency, throughput, and error rates. ### Manual configuration of Prometheus #### Requirements Integration with Prometheus requires the following: 1. GitLab 9.0 or higher 1. Prometheus must be configured to collect one of the [supported metrics](prometheus_library/index.md) 1. Each metric must be have a label to indicate the environment 1. GitLab must have network connectivity to the Prometheus server #### Getting started Installing and configuring Prometheus to monitor applications is fairly straight forward. 1. [Install Prometheus](https://prometheus.io/docs/prometheus/latest/installation/) 1. Set up one of the [supported monitoring targets](prometheus_library/index.md) 1. Configure the Prometheus server to [collect their metrics](https://prometheus.io/docs/prometheus/latest/configuration/configuration/#scrape_config) #### Configuration in GitLab The actual configuration of Prometheus integration within GitLab is very simple. All you will need is the DNS or IP address of the Prometheus server you'd like to integrate with. 1. Navigate to the [Integrations page](project_services.md#accessing-the-project-services) 1. Click the **Prometheus** service 1. Provide the base URL of the your server, for example `http://prometheus.example.com/`. The **Test Settings** button can be used to confirm connectivity from GitLab to the Prometheus server. ![Configure Prometheus Service](img/prometheus_service_configuration.png) ## Monitoring CI/CD Environments Once configured, GitLab will attempt to retrieve performance metrics for any environment which has had a successful deployment. GitLab will automatically scan the Prometheus server for metrics from known servers like Kubernetes and NGINX, and attempt to identify individual environment. The supported metrics and scan process is detailed in our [Prometheus Metrics Library documentation](prometheus_library/index.md). You can view the performance dashboard for an environment by [clicking on the monitoring button](../../../ci/environments.md#monitoring-environments). ### Adding additional metrics **(PREMIUM)** > [Introduced](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab/merge_requests/3799) in [GitLab Premium](https://about.gitlab.com/pricing/) 10.6. Custom metrics can be monitored by adding them on the monitoring dashboard page. Once saved, they will be displayed on the environment performance dashboard provided that either: - A [connected Kubernetes cluster](../clusters/add_remove_clusters.md) with the environment scope of `*` is used and [Prometheus installed on the cluster](#enabling-prometheus-integration) - Prometheus is [manually configured](#manual-configuration-of-prometheus). ![Add New Metric](img/prometheus_add_metric.png) A few fields are required: - **Name**: Chart title - **Type**: Type of metric. Metrics of the same type will be shown together. - **Query**: Valid [PromQL query](https://prometheus.io/docs/prometheus/latest/querying/basics/). - **Y-axis label**: Y axis title to display on the dashboard. - **Unit label**: Query units, for example `req / sec`. Shown next to the value. Multiple metrics can be displayed on the same chart if the fields **Name**, **Type**, and **Y-axis label** match between metrics. For example, a metric with **Name** `Requests Rate`, **Type** `Business`, and **Y-axis label** `rec / sec` would display on the same chart as a second metric with the same values. A **Legend label** is suggested if this feature used. #### Query Variables GitLab supports a limited set of [CI variables](../../../ci/variables/README.html) in the Prometheus query. This is particularly useful for identifying a specific environment, for example with `CI_ENVIRONMENT_SLUG`. The supported variables are: - CI_ENVIRONMENT_SLUG - KUBE_NAMESPACE To specify a variable in a query, enclose it in quotation marks with curly braces with a leading percent. For example: `"%{ci_environment_slug}"`. ### Defining custom dashboards per project > [Introduced](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab-foss/issues/59974) in GitLab 12.1. By default, all projects include a GitLab-defined Prometheus dashboard, which includes a few key metrics, but you can also define your own custom dashboards. NOTE: **Note:** The custom metrics as defined below do not support alerts, unlike [additional metrics](#adding-additional-metrics-premium). Dashboards have several components: - Panel groups, which comprise panels. - Panels, which support one or more metrics. To configure a custom dashboard: 1. Create a YAML file with the `.yml` extension under your repository's root directory inside `.gitlab/dashboards/`. For example, create `.gitlab/dashboards/prom_alerts.yml` with the following contents: ```yaml dashboard: 'Dashboard Title' panel_groups: - group: 'Group Title' panels: - type: area-chart title: "Chart Title" y_label: "Y-Axis" metrics: - id: metric_of_ages query_range: 'http_requests_total' label: "Metric of Ages" unit: "count" ``` The above sample dashboard would display a single area chart. Each file should define the layout of the dashboard and the Prometheus queries used to populate data. 1. Save the file, commit, and push to your repository. 1. Navigate to your project's **Operations > Metrics** and choose the custom dashboard from the dropdown. NOTE: **Note:** Configuration files nested under subdirectories of `.gitlab/dashboards` are not supported and will not be available in the UI. The following tables outline the details of expected properties. **Dashboard properties:** | Property | Type | Required | Description | | ------ | ------ | ------ | ------ | | `dashboard` | string | yes | Heading for the dashboard. Only one dashboard should be defined per file. | | `panel_groups` | array | yes | The panel groups which should be on the dashboard. | **Panel group (`panel_groups`) properties:** | Property | Type | Required | Description | | ------ | ------ | ------ | ------ | | `group` | string | required | Heading for the panel group. | | `priority` | number | optional, defaults to order in file | Order to appear on the dashboard.

If defined, the `query_range` endpoint of the [Prometheus API](https://prometheus.io/docs/prometheus/latest/querying/api/) will be utilized. | #### Panel types for dashboards The below panel types are supported in monitoring dashboards. ##### Area or Line Chart To add an area chart panel type to a dashboard, look at the following sample dashboard file: ```yaml dashboard: 'Dashboard Title' panel_groups: - group: 'Group Title' panels: - type: area-chart # or line-chart title: 'Area Chart Title' y_label: "Y-Axis" metrics: - id: area_http_requests_total query_range: 'http_requests_total' label: "Metric of Ages" unit: "count" ``` Note the following properties: | Property | Type | Required | Description | | ------ | ------ | ------ | ------ | | type | string | no | Type of panel to be rendered. Optional for area panel types | | query_range | string | required | For area panel types, you must use a [range query](https://prometheus.io/docs/prometheus/latest/querying/api/#range-queries) | ![area panel type](img/prometheus_dashboard_area_panel_type.png) ##### Anomaly chart > [Introduced](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab/merge_requests/16530) in GitLab 12.5. To add an anomaly chart panel type to a dashboard, add add a panel with *exactly* 3 metrics. The first metric represents the current state, and the second and third metrics represent the upper and lower limit respectively: ```yaml dashboard: 'Dashboard Title' panel_groups: - group: 'Group Title' panels: - type: anomaly-chart title: "Chart Title" y_label: "Y-Axis" metrics: - id: anomaly_requests_normal query_range: 'http_requests_total' label: "# of Requests" unit: "count" metrics: - id: anomaly_requests_upper_limit query_range: 10000 label: "Max # of requests" unit: "count" metrics: - id: anomaly_requests_lower_limit query_range: 2000 label: "Min # of requests" unit: "count" ``` Note the following properties: | Property | Type | Required | Description | | ------ | ------ | ------ | ------ | | type | string | required | Must be `anomaly-chart` for anomaly panel types | | query_range | yes | required | For anomaly panel types, you must use a [range query](https://prometheus.io/docs/prometheus/latest/querying/api/#range-queries) in every metric. | ![anomaly panel type](img/prometheus_dashboard_anomaly_panel_type.png) ##### Single Stat To add a single stat panel type to a dashboard, look at the following sample dashboard file: ```yaml dashboard: 'Dashboard Title' panel_groups: - group: 'Group Title' panels: - title: "Single Stat" type: "single-stat" metrics: - id: 10 query: 'max(go_memstats_alloc_bytes{job="prometheus"})' unit: MB label: "Total" ``` Note the following properties: | Property | Type | Required | Description | | ------ | ------ | ------ | ------ | | type | string | yes | Type of panel to be rendered. For single stat panel types, set to `single-stat` | | query | string | yes | For single stat panel types, you must use an [instant query](https://prometheus.io/docs/prometheus/latest/querying/api/#instant-queries) | ![single stat panel type](img/prometheus_dashboard_single_stat_panel_type.png) ##### Heatmaps > [Introduced](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab/issues/30581) in GitLab 12.5. To add a heatmap panel type to a dashboard, look at the following sample dashboard file: ```yaml dashboard: 'Dashboard Title' panel_groups: - group: 'Group Title' panels: - title: "Heatmap" type: "heatmap" metrics: - id: 10 query: 'sum(rate(nginx_upstream_responses_total{upstream=~"%{kube_namespace}-%{ci_environment_slug}-.*"}[60m])) by (status_code)' unit: req/sec label: "Status code" ``` Note the following properties: | Property | Type | Required | Description | | ------ | ------ | ------ | ------ | | type | string | yes | Type of panel to be rendered. For heatmap panel types, set to `heatmap` | | query_range | yes | yes | For area panel types, you must use a [range query](https://prometheus.io/docs/prometheus/latest/querying/api/#range-queries) | ![heatmap panel type](img/heatmap_panel_type.png) ### View and edit the source file of a custom dashboard > [Introduced](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab/issues/34779) in GitLab 12.5. When viewing a custom dashboard of a project, you can view the original `.yml` file by clicking on **Edit dashboard** button. ### Downloading data as CSV Data from Prometheus charts on the metrics dashboard can be downloaded as CSV. ![Downloading as CSV](img/download_as_csv.png) ### Setting up alerts for Prometheus metrics **(ULTIMATE)** #### Managed Prometheus instances > [Introduced](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab/merge_requests/6590) in [GitLab Ultimate](https://about.gitlab.com/pricing/) 11.2 for [custom metrics](#adding-additional-metrics-premium), and 11.3 for [library metrics](prometheus_library/metrics.md). For managed Prometheus instances using auto configuration, alerts for metrics [can be configured](#adding-additional-metrics-premium) directly in the performance dashboard. To set an alert: 1. Click on the ellipsis icon in the top right corner of the metric you want to create the alert for. 1. Choose **Alerts** 1. Set threshold and operator. 1. Click **Add** to save and activate the alert. ![Adding an alert](img/prometheus_alert.png) To remove the alert, click back on the alert icon for the desired metric, and click **Delete**. #### External Prometheus instances > [Introduced](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab/issues/9258) in [GitLab Ultimate](https://about.gitlab.com/pricing/) 11.8. For manually configured Prometheus servers, a notify endpoint is provided to use with Prometheus webhooks. If you have manual configuration enabled, an **Alerts** section is added to **Settings > Integrations > Prometheus**. This contains the *URL* and *Authorization Key*. The **Reset Key** button will invalidate the key and generate a new one. ![Prometheus service configuration of Alerts](img/prometheus_service_alerts.png) To send GitLab alert notifications, copy the *URL* and *Authorization Key* into the [`webhook_configs`](https://prometheus.io/docs/alerting/configuration/#webhook_config) section of your Prometheus Alertmanager configuration: ```yaml receivers: name: gitlab webhook_configs: - http_config: bearer_token: 9e1cbfcd546896a9ea8be557caf13a76 send_resolved: true url: http://192.168.178.31:3001/root/manual_prometheus/prometheus/alerts/notify.json ... ``` In order for GitLab to associate your alerts with an [environment](../../../ci/environments.md), you need to configure a `gitlab_environment_name` label on the alerts you set up in Prometheus. The value of this should match the name of your Environment in GitLab. ### Taking action on incidents **(ULTIMATE)** >- [Introduced](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab/issues/4925) in [GitLab Ultimate](https://about.gitlab.com/pricing/) 11.11. >- [From GitLab Ultimate 12.5](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab/issues/13401), when GitLab receives a recovery alert, it will automatically close the associated issue. Alerts can be used to trigger actions, like open an issue automatically (enabled by default since `12.1`). To configure the actions: 1. Navigate to your project's **Settings > Operations > Incidents**. 1. Enable the option to create issues. 1. Choose the [issue template](../description_templates.md) to create the issue from. 1. Optionally, select whether to send an email notification to the developers of the project. 1. Click **Save changes**. Once enabled, an issue will be opened automatically when an alert is triggered which contains values extracted from [alert's payload](https://prometheus.io/docs/alerting/configuration/#webhook_config ): - Issue author: `GitLab Alert Bot` - Issue title: Extract from `annotations/title`, `annotations/summary` or `labels/alertname` - Alert `Summary`: A list of properties - `starts_at`: Alert start time via `startsAt` - `full_query`: Alert query extracted from `generatorURL` - Optional list of attached annotations extracted from `annotations/*` - Alert [GFM](../../markdown.md): GitLab Flavored Markdown from `annotations/gitlab_incident_markdown` When GitLab receives a **Recovery Alert**, it will automatically close the associated issue. This action will be recorded as a system message on the issue indicated that it was closed automatically by the GitLab Alert bot. To further customize the issue, you can add labels, mentions, or any other supported [quick action](../quick_actions.md) in the selected issue template, which will apply to all incidents. To limit quick actions or other information to only specific types of alerts, use the `annotations/gitlab_incident_markdown` field. Since [version 12.2](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab-foss/issues/63373), GitLab will tag each incident issue with the `incident` label automatically. If the label does not yet exist, it will be created automatically as well. If the metric exceeds the threshold of the alert for over 5 minutes, an email will be sent to all [Maintainers and Owners](../../permissions.md#project-members-permissions) of the project. ## Determining the performance impact of a merge > - [Introduced][ce-10408] in GitLab 9.2. > - GitLab 9.3 added the [numeric comparison](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab-foss/issues/27439) of the 30 minute averages. Developers can view the performance impact of their changes within the merge request workflow. NOTE: **Note:** Requires [Kubernetes](prometheus_library/kubernetes.md) metrics. When a source branch has been deployed to an environment, a sparkline and numeric comparison of the average memory consumption will appear. On the sparkline, a dot indicates when the current changes were deployed, with up to 30 minutes of performance data displayed before and after. The comparison shows the difference between the 30 minute average before and after the deployment. This information is updated after each commit has been deployed. Once merged and the target branch has been redeployed, the metrics will switch to show the new environments this revision has been deployed to. Performance data will be available for the duration it is persisted on the Prometheus server. ![Merge Request with Performance Impact](img/merge_request_performance.png) ## Embedding metric charts within GitLab Flavored Markdown ### Embedding GitLab-managed Kubernetes metrics > [Introduced][ce-29691] in GitLab 12.2. It is possible to display metrics charts within [GitLab Flavored Markdown](../../markdown.md#gitlab-flavored-markdown-gfm). The maximum number of embeds allowed in a GitLab Flavored Markdown field is 100. NOTE: **Note:** Requires [Kubernetes](prometheus_library/kubernetes.md) metrics. To display a metric chart, include a link of the form `https:////-/environments//metrics`. A single chart may also be embedded. You can generate a link to the chart via the dropdown located on the right side of the chart: ![Generate Link To Chart](img/generate_link_to_chart.png) The following requirements must be met for the metric to unfurl: - The `` must correspond to a real environment. - Prometheus must be monitoring the environment. - The GitLab instance must be configured to receive data from the environment. - The user must be allowed access to the monitoring dashboard for the environment ([Reporter or higher](../../permissions.md)). - The dashboard must have data within the last 8 hours. If all of the above are true, then the metric will unfurl as seen below: ![Embedded Metrics](img/embed_metrics.png) ### Embedding metrics in issue templates It is also possible to embed either the default dashboard metrics or individual metrics in issue templates. For charts to render side-by-side, links to the entire metrics dashboard or individual metrics should be separated by either a comma or a space. ![Embedded Metrics in issue templates](img/embed_metrics_issue_template.png) ### Embedding Grafana charts Grafana metrics can be embedded in [GitLab Flavored Markdown](../../markdown.md). #### Embedding charts via Grafana Rendered Images It is possible to embed live [Grafana](https://docs.gitlab.com/omnibus/settings/grafana.html) charts in issues, as a [direct linked rendered image](https://grafana.com/docs/reference/sharing/#direct-link-rendered-image). The sharing dialog within Grafana provides the link, as highlighted below. ![Grafana Direct Linked Rendered Image](img/grafana_live_embed.png) NOTE: **Note:** For this embed to display correctly the Grafana instance must be available to the target user, either as a public dashboard or on the same network. Copy the link and add an image tag as [inline HTML](../../markdown.md#inline-html) in your Markdown. You may tweak the query parameters as required. For instance, removing the `&from=` and `&to=` parameters will give you a live chart. Here is example markup for a live chart from GitLab's public dashboard: ```html ``` This will render like so: #### Embedding charts via integration with Grafana HTTP API > [Introduced](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab/issues/31376) in GitLab 12.5. Each project can support integration with one Grafana instance. This configuration allows a user to copy a link to a panel in Grafana, then paste it into a GitLab Markdown field. The chart will be rendered in the GitLab chart format. Prerequisites for embedding from a Grafana instance: 1. The datasource must be a Prometheus instance. 1. The datasource must be proxyable, so the HTTP Access setting should be set to `Server`. ![HTTP Proxy Access](img/http_proxy_access_v12_5.png) ##### Setting up the Grafana integration 1. [Generate an Admin-level API Token in Grafana.](https://grafana.com/docs/http_api/auth/#create-api-token) 1. In your GitLab project, navigate to **Settings > Operations > Grafana Authentication**. 1. To enable the integration, check the "Active" checkbox. 1. For "Grafana URL", enter the base URL of the Grafana instance. 1. For "API Token", enter the Admin API Token you just generated. 1. Click **Save Changes**. ##### Generating a link to a chart 1. In Grafana, navigate to the dashboard you wish to embed a panel from. ![Grafana Metric Panel](img/grafana_panel_v12_5.png) 1. In the upper-left corner of the page, select a specific value for each variable required for the queries in the chart. ![Select Query Variables](img/select_query_variables_v12_5.png) 1. In Grafana, click on a panel's title, then click **Share** to open the panel's sharing dialog to the **Link** tab. 1. If your Prometheus queries use Grafana's custom template variables, ensure that "Template variables" and "Current time range" options are toggled to **On**. Of Grafana global template variables, only `$__interval`, `$__from`, and `$__to` are currently supported. ![Grafana Sharing Dialog](img/grafana_sharing_dialog_v12_5.png) 1. Click **Copy** to copy the URL to the clipboard. 1. In GitLab, paste the URL into a Markdown field and save. The chart will take a few moments to render. ![GitLab Rendered Grafana Panel](img/rendered_grafana_embed_v12_5.png) ## Troubleshooting If the "No data found" screen continues to appear, it could be due to: - No successful deployments have occurred to this environment. - Prometheus does not have performance data for this environment, or the metrics are not labeled correctly. To test this, connect to the Prometheus server and [run a query](prometheus_library/kubernetes.html#metrics-supported), replacing `$CI_ENVIRONMENT_SLUG` with the name of your environment. - You may need to re-add the GitLab predefined common metrics. This can be done by running the [import common metrics rake task](../../../administration/raketasks/maintenance.md#import-common-metrics).
