# Text
|
|
|
|
Text visualizations let you include text or HTML in your dashboards.
|
|
This can be used to add contextual information and descriptions or embed complex HTML.
|
|
|
|
For example, if you want to display important links on your dashboard, you can use a text visualization to add these links:
|
|
|
|
{{< figure src="/media/docs/grafana/panels-visualizations/screenshot-text-visualization-v11.6.png" max-width="750px" alt="A text panel showing important links" >}}
|
|
|
|
{{< docs/play title="Text Panel" url="https://play.grafana.org/d/adl33bxy1ih34b/" >}}
|
|
|
|
Use a text visualization when you need to:
|
|
|
|
- Add important links or useful annotations.
|
|
- Provide instructions or guidance on how to interpret different panels, configure settings, or take specific actions based on the displayed data.
|
|
- Announce any scheduled maintenance or downtime that might impact your dashboards.
|
|
|
|

|
| Option | Description |
|
|
| ------ | ----------- |
|
|
| Mode | Determines how embedded content appears. Choose from:<ul><li>**Markdown** - Formats the content as [markdown](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Markdown).</li><li>**HTML** - Renders the content as [sanitized](https://github.com/grafana/grafana/blob/main/packages/grafana-data/src/text/sanitize.ts) HTML. If you require more direct control over the output, you can set the [disable_sanitize_html](ref:disable_sanitize_html) flag which enables you to directly enter HTML.</li><li>**Code** - Renders content inside a read-only code editor. [Variables](ref:variables) in the content are expanded for display.</li></ul><p>To allow embedding of iframes and other websites, you need set `allow_embedding = true` in your Grafana `config.ini` or environment variables (depending on your employment).</p> |
|
|
| Language | When you choose **Code** as your text mode, select an appropriate language to apply syntax highlighting to the embedded text. |
|
|
| Show line numbers | Displays line numbers in the panel preview when you choose **Code** as your text mode. |
|
|
| Show mini map | Displays a small outline of the embedded text in the panel preview when you choose **Code** as your text mode. |
