Property | Type | Required | Default | Description |
---|---|---|---|---|
expr | string | Yes | The LogQL query. | |
refId | string | Yes | A unique identifier for the query within the list of targets. In server side expressions, the refId is used as a variable name to identify results. By default, the UI will assign A->Z; however setting meaningful names may be useful. | |
datasource | No | For mixed data sources the selected datasource is on the query level. For non mixed scenarios this is undefined. TODO find a better way to do this ^ that’s friendly to schema TODO this shouldn’t be unknown but DataSourceRef | null | ||
editorMode | string | No | Possible values are: code , builder . | |
hide | boolean | No | true if query is disabled (ie should not be returned to the dashboard) Note this does not always imply that the query should not be executed since the results from a hidden query may be used as the input to other queries (SSE etc) | |
instant | boolean | No | @deprecated, now use queryType. | |
legendFormat | string | No | Used to override the name of the series. | |
maxLines | integer | No | Used to limit the number of log rows returned. | |
