cURL examples
This page provides examples of calls to the Grafana API using cURL.
The most basic example for a dashboard for which there is no authentication. You can test the following on your local machine, assuming a default installation and anonymous access enabled, required:
curl http://localhost:3000/api/search
Here's a cURL command that works for getting the home dashboard when you are running Grafana locally with [basic authentication]({{< relref "/docs/grafana/latest/setup-grafana/configure-security/configure-authentication#basic-auth" >}}) enabled using the default admin credentials:
curl http://admin:admin@localhost:3000/api/search
To pass a username and password with [HTTP basic authorization]({{< relref "/docs/grafana/latest/administration/roles-and-permissions/access-control/manage-rbac-roles" >}}), encode them as base64. You can't use authorization tokens in the request.
For example, to [list permissions associated with roles]({{< relref "/docs/grafana/latest/administration/roles-and-permissions/access-control/manage-rbac-roles" >}}) given a username of user and password of password, use:
curl --location '<grafana_url>/api/access-control/builtin-roles' --user 'user:password'
