# Install this chart
## Preparation for Cloud mode (preferred)
1. Use an existing Grafana Cloud account or setup a new one. Then create an access token:
1. In Grafana go to Administration -> Users and Access -> Cloud access policies.
1. Click `Create access policy`.
1. Fill in the `Display name` field and check the `Write` check box for metrics, logs and traces. Then click `Create`.
1. On the newly created access policy click `Add token`.
1. Fill in the `Token name` field and click `Create`. Make a copy of the token as it will be used later on.
1. Create the meta namespace
```
kubectl create namespace meta
```
1. Create secrets with credentials and the endpoint when sending logs, metrics or traces to Grafana Cloud.
```
kubectl create secret generic logs -n meta \
--from-literal=username=<logs username> \
--from-literal=password=<token>
--from-literal=endpoint='https://logs-prod-us-central1.grafana.net/loki/api/v1/push'
kubectl create secret generic metrics -n meta \
--from-literal=username=<metrics username> \
--from-literal=password=<token>
--from-literal=endpoint='https://prometheus-us-central1.grafana.net/api/prom/push'
kubectl create secret generic traces -n meta \
--from-literal=username=<traces username> \
--from-literal=password=<token>
--from-literal=endpoint='https://tempo-us-central1.grafana.net/tempo'
```
The logs, metrics and traces usernames are the `User / Username / Instance IDs` of the Loki, Prometheus/Mimir and Tempo instances in Grafana Cloud. From `Home` in Grafana click on `Stacks`. Then go to the `Details` pages of Loki, Prometheus/Mimir and Tempo.
1. Create a values.yaml file based on the [default one](../charts/meta-monitoring/values.yaml). Fill in the names of the secrets created above as needed. An example minimal values.yaml looks like this:
```
namespacesToMonitor:
- loki
cloud:
logs:
enabled: true
secret: "logs"
metrics:
enabled: true
secret: "metrics"
traces:
enabled: true
secret: "traces"
```
## Preparation for Local mode
1. Create the meta namespace
```
kubectl create namespace meta
```
1. Create a values.yaml file based on the [default one](../charts/meta-monitoring/values.yaml). An example minimal values.yaml looks like this:
```
namespacesToMonitor:
- loki
cloud:
logs:
enabled: false
metrics:
enabled: false
traces:
enabled: false
local:
grafana:
enabled:true
logs:
enabled: true
metrics:
enabled: true
traces:
enabled: true
minio:
enabled: true
```
