User: "List all production dashboards and export them"
→ bun run Tools/DashboardCrud.ts list --tag production
→ For each: bun run Tools/DashboardCrud.ts export <uid>
→ Returns list of exported JSON filesUser: "Create a new dashboard from this JSON file"
→ bun run Tools/DashboardCrud.ts create --file dashboard.json --folder monitoring
→ Returns new dashboard UID and URLUser: "Clone the CPU dashboard to the production folder"
→ bun run Tools/DashboardCrud.ts clone cpu-uid --title "CPU Prod" --folder prod-folder
→ Returns cloned dashboard detailsUser: "Restore dashboard abc123 to version 5"
→ bun run Tools/DashboardCrud.ts versions abc123
→ bun run Tools/DashboardCrud.ts restore abc123 --version 5
→ Dashboard restored, new version createdUser: "Write TypeScript to bulk update dashboard tags"
→ Uses GrafanaClient library:
const client = createGrafanaClient();
const dashboards = await client.searchDashboards({ tag: 'old-tag' });
for (const dash of dashboards) {
const full = await client.getDashboardByUid(dash.uid);
full.dashboard.tags = full.dashboard.tags.filter(t => t !== 'old-tag');
full.dashboard.tags.push('new-tag');
await client.saveDashboard({ dashboard: full.dashboard, message: 'Updated tags' });
