The European X-ray Free-Electron Laser provides one of the most powerful X-ray laser pulses to a wide range of experiments. These experiments strongly benefit from the exact knowledge of the electron bunch current profile and demand for stable and shortest-possible pulse lengths. During the 2018 summer shutdown, the 4-staged grating spectrometer CRISP* has been installed at a diffraction radiation (DR) beamline just upstream of the undulator beamline switchyard. The DR at final electron beam energies of up to 17.5 GeV enables non-invasive bunch length characterization based on form factor measurements down to a few micrometers. Fast detectors and electronics allow for the characterization of the whole bunch train with repetition rates above 1 MHz. This contribution will present commissioning results of the THz beamline as well as first measured form factors and reconstructed electron current profiles.
