 6. Amazon Managed Grafana workspace
 
-If you have an existing workspace, create an environment variable `export TF_VAR_managed_grafana_workspace_id=g-xxx`.
+To run this example you need an Amazon Managed Grafana workspace. If you have an existing workspace, create an environment variable `export TF_VAR_managed_grafana_workspace_id=g-xxx`.
+
+To create a new one, within this example's Terraform state (sharing the same lifecycle with all the other resources):
+
+- Edit main.tf and set `enable_managed_grafana = true`
+- Run `terraform apply -target "module.eks_observability_accelerator.module.managed_grafana[0].aws_grafana_workspace.this[0]"`.
+- Run `export TF_VAR_managed_grafana_workspace_id=$(terraform output --raw managed_grafana_workspace_id)`.
