Grafana 10.1: How to build dashboards with visualizations and widgets

Learn how to distinguish widgets from visualizations for building better dashboards with Grafana 10.1. This update will improve your dashboard creation process because if you want to integrate elements like text, news, or an annotation list, you no longer need to select a data source first. Plus, to optimize your editing experience, the plugins list and library panels are now context-aware, adjusting in real time based on whether you’re working with a widget or a visualization.

Improved time series, trend, and state timeline visualizations in Grafana 10.1

When you’re visualizing data in time series, trend, and state timeline panels, one challenge you might have faced is when arbitrary gaps in your data end up automatically connected in your visualization. This can distort the true picture of your data, leading to potential misinterpretations. In Grafana 10.1, you can now set a specific threshold on the x-axis in your Grafana dashboards to disconnect any data points above this threshold.
