Dashboard from Backtrace information

JohnSchell — Tue, 30 Jul 2024 09:49:32 GMT

Hi, we are doing a backtrace on a certain service. This shows us the request count of each request calling this service. We would like to create a dashboard to show how many times this service is called by each of the requests over a month so that we can recharge the apps that are using this service. Has anyone tried this type of thing before? TIA

Hi,

I think that is not possible out-the-box, but not sure 100%.

Best regards

Not possible at the moment. This will be generally possible with Traces in Grail.

Depending on your use case, it might be possible to solve it using request attributes and calculated service metrics. But it highly depends on your particular case. I'd recommend looking at logs from your service - maybe those are a better source of information for recharging purposes.

Thanks for the info. We have got this type of information from logs before but its a slightly different situation. We will have a look at the request attributes and calculated service metrics.

Thanks again
