This article assumes you have a Parca deployment in the same model as your COS Lite bundle and configured as a datasource in Grafana. If you don’t have a COS Lite (or Parca) deployment, please navigate to the guide below first.

See more: [Deploy Charmed Parca on top of COS Lite](https://discourse.charmhub.io/t/tutorial-deploy-charmed-parca-on-top-of-cos-lite/16560)

In the same model, deploy the parca-scrape-target charm:

```
juju deploy parca-scrape-target --channel latest/edge
```

Your application must expose a [pprof](https://github.com/google/pprof/blob/main/doc/README.md) endpoint in order for `parca` to be able to scrape it. The endpoint must also be reachable from the location where `parca` is deployed.

Connect parca-scrape-target to the application. In the example, it is assumed the application is exposing pprof endpoints at `pprof-example-app-go:8080`:

```
juju config parca-scrape-target targets="pprof-example-app-go:8080"
juju relate parca-scrape-target parca
```

For troubleshooting, you can use the `pprof-example-app-go` application [available on Github](https://github.com/polarsignals/pprof-example-app-go/). You can deploy the Kubernetes manifest in the same model as your `parca` deployment by running `kubectl apply -f deployment.yaml -n YOUR_MODEL_NAME`.

Observe in Grafana that profiling data is being shown.
