--- title: "Compatible components | Grafana Cloud documentation" description: "Learn about which components are compatible with each other in Grafana Alloy" --- > For a curated documentation index, see [llms.txt](/llms.txt). For the complete documentation index, see [llms-full.txt](/llms-full.txt). # Compatible components This section provides an overview of *some* of the possible connections between compatible components in Alloy. For each common data type, we provide a list of compatible components that can export or consume it. > Note > > The type of export may not be the only requirement for chaining components together. The value of an attribute may matter as well as its type. Refer to each component’s documentation for more details on what values are acceptable. > > For example: > > - A Prometheus component may always expect an `"__address__"` label inside a list of targets. > - A `string` argument may only accept certain values like “traceID” or “spanID”. ## Targets Targets are a `list(map(string))` - a [list](/docs/alloy/latest/get-started/configuration-syntax/expressions/types_and_values/#naming-convention) of [maps](/docs/alloy/latest/get-started/configuration-syntax/expressions/types_and_values/#naming-convention) with [string](/docs/alloy/latest/get-started/configuration-syntax/expressions/types_and_values/#strings) values. They can contain different key-value pairs, and you can use them with a wide range of components. Some components require Targets to contain specific key-value pairs to work correctly. It’s recommended to always check component references for details when working with Targets. ### Targets Exporters The following components, grouped by namespace, *export* Targets. beyla - [`beyla.ebpf`](/docs/grafana-cloud/send-data/alloy/reference/components/beyla/beyla.ebpf) database\_observability -

Components that can consume Pyroscope profiles can be passed the `ProfilesReceiver` as an argument.
