Summary
Part four of a five-part series on automating DevOps tasks in New Relic explains how to export dashboards for management reporting using Python and the NerdGraph API, a GraphQL-format API. It guides users through exporting dashboards as PDF or PNG files by providing sample Python code, which makes API calls using the requests and json modules. The tutorial also details the prerequisites needed, such as having Python 3, a New Relic account, an API key, and an application instrumented with New Relic APM. The series aims to integrate DevOps into observability practices and encourages users to explore further possibilities with the NerdGraph API while offering insights from Steve Ng, a senior manager at New Relic.
