Infrastructure & Operations - Explorer (new)

Platform Open Q&A
1

Hi all,

generally I like the new explorer, it’s much faster and makes working with large number of entities therefore a lot easier. There are things that I’m struggling with:

  • the properties tab is not always available, that makes checking details of an item impossible. Example is the RabbitMQ extension. Classic shows properties, new explorer doesn’t (yet?)
  • tagging is not available in the new explorer at all. I can view tags in the properties, but I can’t add/delete them like in the classic explorer. Is this planned?
  • Classic shows Otel Hosts and Processes just fine, the new one doesn’t show me any otel data? Bug or not yet implemented?

A new RabbitMQ extension version has just been released that addresses the properties issues. Adding tags in the new explorer is still a functionality gap for me.

Since the extension update fixed properties, the remaining gap is tag editing. Until that is added, you can still edit tags from the classic entity page while using the new Explorer for discovery and filtering. If tag management is blocking your RabbitMQ/Tibco workflow, a product idea with those examples would make the ask concrete.
