The service inventory page lists all the services that are sending distributed traces to Grafana Cloud. Use the inventory page to filter services and navigate to:
- The Service overview page for each service
- The Service map to see a service graph
Header
Like other Application Observability pages, the service inventory page has a header with a title, sub-tabs to navigate to, and an action bar to change the data source and time-related filters and refresh intervals.
The header on the service inventory page also includes a filters editor to filter the visible services.
Action bar
Use the action bar to change the data source(s) and time-related filters and refresh intervals:
- The default time range for all panels is 30 mins
- If no data is shown, change the time range
- Use the refresh interval dropdown to select an automatic refresh interval
- Click the refresh icon to toggle a manual refresh
Search
Below the action bar, use the Search field to search for a service by name.
Filters
Use filters to narrow down the list of services by name (full or partial), namespace, or technology.
Below the action bar, click the plus icon (+) to create a filter:
- Select the field to filter by
- Select an operator ("=" to match exactly, “!=” to exclude)
- Select the value to match against
