I want to download reports from 1000 servers, reports are in JOSN format and display into Grafana dashboard.

Can someone please guide me, How to do it

Welcome @tusharjadhav29 to the Grafana forum.

It’s difficult to answer your questions without knowing much about these reports’ data structure. Can you post a few abbreviated examples of a typical report in JSON format? You might not even need to put them into a database, but just use the JSON datasource plugin and view them in Grafana that way.

Welcome

Can you please post the content of one of these json files?

How often are these files generated? Are they generated manually or through some automated process?

Are they log files from these servers?
