Investigations app

Investigations let you curate interesting signals from the Drilldown apps.

Note

Overview

The Investigations app lets you collect interesting signals from the Grafana Drilldown apps and assemble them into lists.

With Investigations, you can:

  • Collect metrics, logs, traces, and profiles and annotate them to explain their significance.
  • Quickly navigate between the various signals without opening several browser tabs.
  • View the items at different time ranges to quickly analyze recurring issues.
  • Create a dashboard from an investigation.

To start creating investigations, where you can mix metrics, logs, traces, and profiles within the same analysis, begin by using the Drilldown apps.
