New panel: Graphviz
The new Graphviz panel plugin lets you define interactive diagrams in the Graphviz DOT language, and map live data to them from any data source. Map metrics to your mental models: service topologies, infrastructure dependencies, business workflows, or any structure where relationships matter as much as values.
Query your Elasticsearch data with more flexibility using DSL and ES|QL
Go beyond the visual query builder in Elasticsearch with a new raw query editor and support for two query languages: Elasticsearch Query DSL and ES|QL. With Elasticsearch Query DSL, you can write advanced queries with complex nested aggregations, custom scoring, or any query structure that the visual editor can’t express.
TwinMaker SceneViewer panel unavailable
Grafana v13.0 upgrades the core application from React 18 to React 19 . The SceneViewer panel in the IoT TwinMaker app (grafana-iot-twinmaker-app) depends on React APIs removed in React 19 and will fail to render after upgrading. What’s affected Dashboards containing a SceneViewer panel display a panel error after upgrading to Grafana 13.
Faster dashboard exploration with quick filters and grouping
Drilling down into your data across a dashboard has traditionally meant working with basic filter controls, re-entering the same filters you used yesterday, and losing track of which filters are active when many are applied.
SQL Expressions support in Grafana Assistant
SQL Expressions let you combine and transform data across multiple queries using familiar SQL-joining results, computing ratios, and filtering before aggregating. But to use it, you had to know the feature existed, learn that your query names become table names, and get the MySQL-dialect syntax right yourself. Now, Grafana Assistant knows SQL Expressions.
Auditing: Changed defaults for data source queries audit logging settings
In Grafana 12.2.0, we introduced two new settings for controlling audit log emission for data source queries: log_datasource_query_request_body and log_datasource_query_response_body , which logs the request and response body payloads respectively. At that time, in order to not introduce a change in the observed behavior, those settings defaulted to true .
Copy and paste panel styles
Styling panels in Grafana used to require a lot of manual work: editing each panel individually, or duplicating one just to reuse its look and then swapping out the query. With the new copy-paste styles feature, you can copy the styling from one panel and apply it to another in just a couple of clicks.
Deprecated data source APIs disabled by default
Data source APIs that referenced data sources using a numeric id were deprecated in Grafana v9.0 in favor of APIs that reference data sources using a uid instead. In Grafana v13.0, these deprecated APIs are disabled by default.
