Perses is an open-source visualization and dashboarding tool, designed for simplicity, performance, and scalability.
VictoriaMetrics Cloud can be used as a data source in Perses, allowing you to create dashboards and monitor your data with a modern and lightweight interface. The data source to configure depends on the deployment type:
| Deployment type | Perses data source | URL | Panel and query type |
|---|---|---|---|
| VictoriaMetrics | Prometheus | <DEPLOYMENT_ENDPOINT_URL> | Time Series Chart, Prometheus Time Series Query |
| VictoriaLogs | VictoriaLogs | <DEPLOYMENT_ENDPOINT_URL> | Logs Table, VictoriaLogs Log Query |
| VictoriaTraces | Tempo | <DEPLOYMENT_ENDPOINT_URL>/select/tempo | Trace Table, Tempo Trace Query |
For VictoriaTraces deployments, the Service Name and Span Name fields of the Tempo Trace Query can be left empty to fetch all traces.
Integrating with Perses #
All VictoriaMetrics Cloud integrations, including this one, require an access token for authentication.
The configuration examples below contain two placeholders: <DEPLOYMENT_ENDPOINT_URL> and <YOUR_ACCESS_TOKEN>.
These need to be replaced with your actual access token.
To generate your access token (with read access, for querying data), follow the steps in the Access Tokens documentation .
