Tempo data source
Grafana ships with built-in support for Tempo, a high-volume, minimal-dependency trace storage, open source tracing solution from Grafana Labs.
To learn more about traces, refer to Introduction to tracing.
To use traces, you need you have an application or service that is instrumented to emit traces.
Refer to the Instrument for tracing for more information.
Add a data source
For instructions on how to add a data source to Grafana, refer to the administration documentation.
Only users with the organization administrator role can add data sources.
Administrators can also configure the data source via YAML with Grafana's provisioning system.
This video explains how to add data sources, including Loki, Tempo, and Mimir, to Grafana and Grafana Cloud. Tempo data source set up starts at 4:58 in the video.

Learn more
After you've added the data source, you can configure it so that your Grafana instance's users can create queries in its query editor when they build dashboards and use Explore.
