Integration & Dashboards¶

The exporter exposes metrics on http://<host>:9099/metrics. Scrape this endpoint with Prometheus or any other OpenMetrics compatible collector.

Prometheus example¶

scrape_configs:
  - job_name: meraki
    static_configs:
      - targets: ['meraki-dashboard-exporter:9099']

Grafana Alloy example¶

discovery.relabel "meraki" {
  targets = [{"__address__" = "meraki-dashboard-exporter:9099"}]
}

prometheus.scrape "meraki" {
  targets    = discovery.relabel.meraki.output
  forward_to = [prometheus.remote_write.default.receiver]
  scrape_interval = "30s"
  scrape_timeout  = "25s"
}

prometheus.remote_write "default" {
  endpoint { url = "http://prometheus:9090/api/v1/write" }
}

Prometheus and Grafana configuration examples are available in the docker-compose.yml. The compose file ships only the exporter container; integrate the scrape job into your existing Prometheus/Grafana stack.

Dashboards¶

Pre-built Grafana dashboards live in the dashboards directory. Import them to get instant visibility into your organisation. Bundled dashboards include:

• organization-overview.json – org-wide rollup
• network-overview.json – network inventory and status
• network-health-performance.json – network health, RF, and performance
• mr-access-points.json – MR (wireless) APs
• ms-switches.json – MS switches
• mx-security-appliances.json – MX appliances and uplinks
• mt-sensors.json – MT environmental sensors
• mv-security-cameras.json – MV cameras
• mg-cellular-gateways.json – MG cellular gateways
• client-overview.json – client tracking
• assurance-alerts.json – alerts and assurance
• api-usage-licensing.json – API usage and licensing
• exporter-monitoring.json – self-monitoring of the exporter

Alerting¶

Use PromQL rules with metrics such as meraki_device_up or meraki_exporter_collection_errors_total to trigger alerts.

For more metrics see the Metrics Reference. Configuration options are documented in the Configuration guide. OpenTelemetry tracing is documented in OpenTelemetry.
