How to load custom dashboard to grafana

[slow-zhang]

Question

I build a cluster by TiDB + CustomServerA. By monitor-with-externalConfigMap, the CustomServerA's metrics is loaded to tidb cluster, but I can not load my custom dashboard to TiDBMonitor.

Is there some way I can add my CustomServerA's dashboard to grafana like tidb's dashboard
