Logs Drilldown improvements
Last October at ObsCon, we announced the GA of Logs Drilldown, and we’ve been hard at work expanding its capabilities to help you visualize your logs data with more flexibility and options.
Enhanced Visualization and Filtering Capabilities
- Multiple Include Filters: You can specify multiple inclusion filters within your Drilldown queries, allowing for more nuanced and targeted log retrieval.
- Regex Support: We’ve added support for regular expressions in label and field queries, providing robust and flexible pattern matching for in-depth log analysis.
- JSON Visualization: Explore and understand your JSON-formatted log entries with our new dedicated JSON visualization, making complex data structures easier to read and interpret.
- Service Selection Pagination: The service selection is now paginated, making it easier for users to view and discover service related data.
- Sort order changes query direction: Sort order and query direction are now linked, using a new query direction “Forward” from Loki. Setting “Oldest first” will query your log data in the order of oldest log to most recent. Setting “Newest first” will query your logs from a “Backwards” direction (i.e. newest log line to oldest).
With these new features in Logs Drilldown, we’re empowering you to gain clearer insights from your log data by supporting a wider range of formats and offering more powerful filtering and visualization options.
