Set up, configure, and troubleshoot Grafana Cloud integrations for AWS, Azure, and other cloud providers. Use when the user asks to connect AWS CloudWatch, set up Azure Monitor, configure Confluent Cloud observability, install a Grafana integration, set up hosted exporters, use AWS Firehose for CloudWatch logs, or troubleshoot a cloud integration. Triggers on phrases like "AWS CloudWatch", "Azure Monitor", "Confluent integration", "cloud integration", "hosted exporter", "AWS Firehose", "install integration", "cloud metrics", or "cloud logs".

## Install

```sh
git clone https://github.com/grafana/skills /tmp/skills && ln -s /tmp/skills/skills/grafana-cloud/cloud-integrations ~/.claude/skills/cloud-integrations
```

## From README

Grafana Cloud Integrations Grafana Cloud Integrations connect cloud provider monitoring APIs to your Grafana stack without running your own exporters. Hosted exporters scrape cloud APIs on your behalf and push metrics to your Grafana Cloud stack. Supported hosted exporters: AWS CloudWatch - all CloudWatch namespaces via YACE (Yet Another CloudWatch Exporter) Azure Monitor - Azure resource metrics via the Azure Monitor API Confluent Cloud - Kafka cluster metrics via the Confluent Metrics API Generic HTTP endpoint - any Prometheus-format /metrics endpoint behind auth AWS Firehose receiver - ingests CloudWatch Logs and Metrics Streams pushed via Kinesis Firehose (near real-time, lower latency than API scraping). --- Step 1: Navigate to Connections In Grafana Cloud: Connections \> Add new connection (or Connections \> Cloud Provider).
