info:
  title: Perses Dashboards Global Datasources API
  description: 'Perses is an open-source monitoring and dashboarding tool (CNCF sandbox)

    that exposes a REST API for managing dashboards, datasources, and

    projects, among other resources. All resources live under the

    /api/v1 prefix; project-scoped resources are nested under

    /api/v1/projects/{projectName}.


    Only a representative subset of the Perses API surface (projects,

    dashboards, datasources, global datasources) is modeled here. See the

    Perses documentation linked under externalDocs for the full catalog

    including users, roles, secrets, variables, and plugins.
