Do you expose the clickhouse API on a public port?
No @Paul, We don't expose clickhouse to the public.
If I wanted to point a grafana dashboard at my signoz cloud metrics, would that be possible?
No, is there something missing in the product that can help you?

Really, its just a bunch of little annoyances in the UI that add up. Like, if you have a bunch of similar metrics you want to graph, there's no way to duplicate one and change the one thing, you have to "+ Query" and click 20 times to set it up.
Same for panels on a dashboard, there's no duplicate, there's just start from empty and set everything up again.
In the time range picker, my choices are "Last 1 hour", 6 hours and 1 day. I often want smaller granularity like 3 hours or 12 hours. Grafana also has options like "since midnight" or "since start of week" or "since 6am today", which I find useful for dashboards.
If I drag a region on a chart on the dashboard, it zooms in to that range, which is useful, but it doesn't update history so when I hit "back" on the browser it takes me to the dashboard list, instead of the previous time range
I wish it did "save layout" automatically. If I rearrange some panels, then edit one, then come back to the dashboard, all my rearranging is forgotten. I find myself just hitting "save layout" after every change I make.
Another feature from Grafana I miss is the "repeat rows for variables" https://grafana.com/blog/2020/06/09/learn-grafana-how-to-automatically-repeat-rows-and-panels-in-dynamic-dashboards/ I could set up a few panels that would take a variable, then set up the dashboard to automatically repeat those panels for every value of the variable. Like if I have a few queue/job stats panels, then I set them up once and use a variable for all my queue names.

Thanks for the feedback and we really appreciate it. I understand how these little annoyances can make the experience poor. We are going to triage your points and address them. We already have an EPIC here https://github.com/SigNoz/signoz/issues/3573 we maintain publicly. Please share any other feedback you have so that we can improve the overall experience for you and everyone.

Thanks! As I use it, I'm sure I'll find more, I'll create issues
