Alert Health And Page Refresh

GrafanaSight adds page byline controls so readers can see Grafana health from a Confluence page and refresh GrafanaSight macros without hunting through configuration screens.

Confluence page with configured GrafanaSight byline

The service-health byline summarizes cached Grafana alert state for the page context. It can show:

  • Not configured when the space has not been connected yet.
  • Healthy when no active alerts are present.
  • Degraded when pending or non-firing alert states need attention.
  • Firing when one or more firing alerts are present.

The byline is intentionally compact. Use the GrafanaSight dashboard or alert macros for deeper context.

GrafanaSight service-health byline popup

Popup labels and buttons:

  • The status label, such as DEGRADED, summarizes the derived health state.
  • The active alert count shows how many cached Grafana alert records need review.
  • firing, pending, and other active split the cached alert states into response buckets.
  • The message explains the current state. In the verified Supabase runbook, Grafana returned six active records even though none were in firing or pending state.
  • The snapshot timestamp shows when the alert data was fetched.
  • Review alerts opens the GrafanaSight dashboard Alerts tab for the current space.
  • Refresh service health refreshes the cached service-health summary.

The refresh byline checks the current page for GrafanaSight macros and refreshes them in small batches. This is useful after:

  • First inserting several GrafanaSight macros.
  • Changing macro time ranges.
  • Updating a Grafana dashboard or panel.
  • Refreshing the GrafanaSight cache.
  • Publishing an incident page that needs current panel snapshots.

GrafanaSight page refresh modal actions

Modal labels and buttons:

  • Total counts every GrafanaSight macro on the current Confluence page.
  • Panels counts detailed and compact panel macros.
  • Dashboards counts detailed and compact dashboard macros.
  • Alerts counts alert summary macros.
  • Status counts status badge macros.
  • Annotations counts annotation timeline macros.
  • Refresh all refreshes the page’s GrafanaSight macros in bounded batches.
  • Reload page reloads Confluence after refresh work finishes so readers see current snapshots and summaries.
  • Close dismisses the modal without reloading the page.
  1. Open the Confluence runbook.
  2. Check the GrafanaSight byline health.
  3. Refresh page macros if the page may be stale.
  4. Use embedded panel snapshots for the primary signals.
  5. Open Grafana directly if you need raw metric exploration.

Refresh the page, then check configuration sync status. The byline depends on the configured space and cached alert data, so stale or missing cache data can make the byline less useful until the next sync completes.
