Why the Drilldown apps, and what this journey covers

Estimated time: 1 min

Investigate without writing queries

You need to dig into your metrics and logs, but writing PromQL and LogQL takes time to learn. The Grafana Drilldown apps let you investigate visually, by pointing and clicking, so you can find anomalies and patterns without writing a query.

What you’ll learn

Here’s what this journey covers:

  • What Metrics Drilldown and Logs Drilldown are, and what you can do in each one
  • How to filter and visualize metrics with Grafana Metrics Drilldown
  • How to filter logs by labels, fields, and text with Grafana Logs Drilldown
  • How to continue a finding in Explore. In Metrics Drilldown you can also copy the page URL or bookmark the view. In Logs Drilldown you can add a panel to a dashboard or create an alert when those actions are shown
