# View WAAP statistics in Grafana

> Grafana panels for total WAAP requests and traffic across the account.

WAAP request and traffic totals for the account can be shown as Grafana time-series panels. The [Grafana plugin](/developer-tools/grafana/install-the-grafana-plugin) adds the **Gcore Platform-EN** data source.

> [!WARNING]
>
> The previous WAAP-only plugin ([Waap](https://github.com/G-Core/waap-stats-datasource-plugin)) is deprecated. Migrate existing dashboards to **Gcore Platform-EN**.

## Configure a dashboard

The panel uses the connected **Gcore Platform-EN** data source.

1. In the top bar, click **+**, then **New dashboard**.

## Query fields

A WAAP query returns one series for the account. The editor has no group-by control and no domain filter. An [alert rule](/developer-tools/grafana/create-an-alert-rule) on that series changes state when requests or traffic cross a threshold.

| Metric | Description |
| - | - |
| `total_requests` | Number of HTTP requests processed by WAAP |
| `total_bytes` | Traffic volume, shown in kilobytes |

**Granularity:** `1h` or `1d`. The series has one point per hour or per day.

**Legend Format:** optional series name. The default legend is the metric name.

`total_requests` with granularity `1h`:
