Grafana dashboards have same UIDs as cortex ones

[fculpo]

Hi,

We are using the mixins in a kube-prometheus environnmenent.
We have a mimir and a cortex cluster for different uses.

The mimir-mixin dashboards have the same UIDs as cortex-mixin ones and grafana refuses to load them.

Would it be possible to generate new UIDs ?

Thanks

Good point! Yes, I think we can definitely do it.

Awesome ! That would be much appreciated :)

This is the code used by Grafana to auto-generate dashboard UIDs. We could just run it to generate new random ones:
