You use feature toggles, also known as feature flags, to turn experimental or beta features on and off in Grafana. Although we do not recommend using these features in production, you can turn on feature toggles to try out new functionality in development or test environments.
This page contains a list of available feature toggles. To learn how to turn on feature toggles, refer to our [Configure Grafana documentation]({{< relref "../_index.md/#feature_toggles" >}}). Feature toggles are also available to Grafana Cloud Advanced customers. If you use Grafana Cloud Advanced, you can open a support ticket and specify the feature toggles and stack for which you want them enabled.
## Stable feature toggles
Some stable features are enabled by default. You can disable a stable feature by setting the feature flag to "false" in the configuration.
| `featureHighlights` | Highlight Grafana Enterprise features | |
| `cloudWatchDynamicLabels` | Use dynamic labels instead of alias patterns in CloudWatch datasource | Yes |
| `dataConnectionsConsole` | Enables a new top-level page called Connections. This page is an experiment that provides a better experience when you install and configure data sources and other plugins. | Yes |
| `migrationLocking` | Lock database during migrations |
| `newDBLibrary` | Use jmoiron/sqlx rather than xorm for a few backend services |
| `validateDashboardsOnSave` | Validate dashboard JSON POSTed to api/dashboards/db |
| `autoMigrateOldPanels` | Migrate old angular panels to supported versions (graph, table-old, worldmap, etc) |
| `disableAngular` | Dynamic flag to disable angular at runtime. The preferred method is to set `angular_support_enabled` to `false` in the [security] settings, which allows you to change the state at runtime. |
| `accessControlOnCall` | Access control primitives for OnCall |
| `alertingNoNormalState` | Stop maintaining state of alerts that are not firing |
| `authnService` | Use new auth service to perform authentication |
| `alertingBacktesting` | Rule backtesting API for alerting |
| `editPanelCSVDragAndDrop` | Enables drag and drop for CSV and Excel files |
| `logsContextDatasourceUi` | Allow datasource to provide custom UI for context view |
| `lokiQuerySplitting` | Split large interval queries into subqueries with smaller time intervals |
| `lokiQuerySplittingConfig` | Give users the option to configure split durations for Loki queries |
| `individualCookiePreferences` | Support overriding cookie preferences per user |
| `onlyExternalOrgRoleSync` | Prohibits a user from changing organization roles synced with external auth providers |
| `drawerDataSourcePicker` | Changes the user experience for data source selection to a drawer. |
| `traceqlSearch` | Enables the 'TraceQL Search' tab for the Tempo datasource which provides a UI to generate TraceQL queries |
| `prometheusMetricEncyclopedia` | Replaces the Prometheus query builder metric select option with a paginated and filterable component |
| `timeSeriesTable` | Enable time series table transformer & sparkline cell type |
| `influxdbBackendMigration` | Query InfluxDB InfluxQL without the proxy |
| `clientTokenRotation` | Replaces the current in-request token rotation so that the client initiates the rotation |
| `prometheusDataplane` | Changes responses to from Prometheus to be compliant with the dataplane specification. In particular it sets the numeric Field.Name from 'Value' to the value of the `__name__` label when present. |
The following toggles require explicitly setting Grafana's [app mode]({{< relref "../_index.md/#app_mode" >}}) to 'development' before you can enable this feature toggle. These features tend to be experimental.
