I am planning to make a dashboard in Graphana to monitor various things. My main question is how to get data such as gateway status, info about threads, memory utilization and some other things which are available on the dateway web page and display those things in my dashboard. The motive behind this is to monitor the performance and take steps further after monitoring it.
You would need to create an API in Ignition to retrieve that information internally (mostly from java's MxBean infrastructure) and supply it to the external caller. Using the WebDev module, typically.
You could also configure Ignition's JVM to open Java's remote management port, and use Java's protocol to retrieve that information directly. Perhaps Graphana has that available?

All of the information reported by Ignition's status pages will be available behind auth token authentication in 8.3, for what it's worth.
