Grafana
The Collectu hub provides a managed Grafana instance. The service can be used to visualize and monitor data, especially data published to the managed Collectu MQTT broker.
As soon as you register, your personal Grafana account will be created. The same applies when you create an organization or add a member.
You can find your initial password in your personal messages. We strongly recommend that you change it immediately.
