## **Step 2: Copy Monitoring Token**

1. After enabling, a monitoring token is generated and displayed.
2. Copy the token. It will be used to authenticate Prometheus requests.

<Check>
  **Header Format**

  Send the token as `Authorization: Bearer <MONITORING_TOKEN>`.

## **Step 3: Configure Prometheus (via Grafana Data Source)**

1. In Grafana, add a Prometheus data source.
2. Set the address to `https://api.upstash.com/monitoring/prometheus`.
3. In HTTP headers, add the monitoring token.

## **Step 4: Import Dashboard**

You can use the Upstash Grafana dashboard to visualize QStash metrics.

Open the import dialog and use: <a href="https://grafana.com/grafana/dashboards/24206-upstash-qstash-dashboard/">Upstash QStash Dashboard</a>
