What's new: RBAC behavior changes with Grafana 13
UpdateUnverifiedAdded Sep 24, 2026
Grafana 13 tightens RBAC enforcement for custom roles, Terraform-managed roles, and role provisioning. Most users aren’t affected. If you maintain custom RBAC roles, especially roles with data source permissions scoped to specific UIDs, or roles using legacy annotation scopes, review your role definitions now to prevent errors.
