Adding SSO to MCP Grafana Server

··982 words·5 mins
The MCP Grafana server previously relied on static API keys or basic auth for authenticating requests to Grafana. This works fine for local development or single-user setups, but falls apart once you have multiple users who each need their own Grafana permissions. Passing around shared API keys is a security concern and means everyone operates with the same access level regardless of their actual role.
