How to Format Number In A Grafana Table?

3 minutes read

In Grafana, you can format numbers in a table by using the field overrides feature. You can do this by going to the "Field" tab in the panel editor, selecting the field that you want to format, and then finding the "Custom" option under the "Display" section.


In the custom display format option, you can enter a format string using the syntax supported by the underlying data source. For example, you can use the following syntax to format numbers with a specific number of decimal places: {field:myField:}.


You can also use other formatting options such as specifying a currency symbol, using scientific notation, or adding custom suffixes or prefixes to the numbers.


By using the field overrides feature in Grafana, you can easily customize the formatting of numbers in your tables to make them more readable and visually appealing for your audience.
