Use provisioned dashboards and datasources with Managed Grafana

Question

Hi,

I'm looking at moving from running our own Grafana instance (using ECS and Fargate) to using the Managed Grafana that AWS offers. We heavily rely on provisioned dashboards and datasources and can't find any information on how to do this using Managed Grafana. Is there any documentation or are there people doing this?

See: https://grafana.com/tutorials/provision-dashboards-and-data-sources/

Thanks
Johan.

I've actually managed to solve this quite nicely with using TerraForm (which under water uses the Grafana API probably). Both to create the managed instance, but also to add dashboards etc even for existing grafana instances.
