Embedding a website in a Grafana dashboard

Question

I run Grafana 7.2.0 Open Source Edition and need to embed a website into the dashboard itself. That is, I need a row or two of the usual panels of graphs, and below them embed an external web site that needs to be periodically reloaded.

How can I achieve this? There do not seem to be any relevant plugins at https://grafana.com/grafana/plugins. Is it possible to write a custom panel just for my instance? If so, any pointers about how to start would be appreciated.

Answer 1

You can use Grafana's standard "Text" panel. Set Display->Mode->HTML in panel settings and add <iframe src="http://your.external.web.page.url"></iframe> in panel content editor.
