Visualizing data in Tracing format

You can visualize your data in the tracing format by configuring the following:

  • Select Trace as Format

  • Ensure you have following fields

    • spanID - string
    • parentSpanID - string
    • traceID - string
    • startTime - timestamp
    • duration - number
    • serviceName - string
    • operationName - string

    For example, with the following CSV data:

csv 
spanID,parentSpanID,traceID,startTime,duration,serviceName,operationName
s1,,t1,1,10000,router,foo
s2,s1,t1,2,6000,frontend,foo
s3,s1,t1,4,4000,backend,foo
s4,s2,t1,3,1000,parsing,foo
s5,s2,t1,3,1500,formatting,foo
s6,s3,t2,5,2200,db,foo

The following UQL query produces a trace view:

sql 
parse-csv
| extend "startTime"=unixtime_seconds_todatetime("startTime")
