Grafana 11.3 introduces significant updates, including the general availability of Scenes-powered dashboards, which offer a more stable, dynamic, and flexible architecture. This release enhances the dashboard experience by allowing API calls from canvas elements, introducing recording rules for Grafana-managed alerts, and offering Explore Logs for easier log visualization and troubleshooting without complex queries. Visualization improvements include auto-formatted table cell values and new action capabilities in various chart types. Additionally, role-based access control for notifications is available in Grafana Enterprise and Grafana Cloud, and new authentication features, like GitHub App authentication for GitHub data sources and LDAP configuration through the UI, are included. Users can also create correlations to external URLs for better data linking, and Grafana Alerting has a simplified query section for alert rule creation. The release emphasizes community engagement and encourages users to explore its new features via Grafana Cloud's free tier.
