Introducing Query Builder v5 with Advanced Capabilities

The query builder has been completely rewritten to support more powerful and flexible data exploration.

Key enhancements:

• Build complex queries with OR conditions and advanced search expressions for more flexible filtering.
• Apply multiple aggregations in a single query for side-by-side comparisons.
• Get specific, actionable error messages instead of generic "Aw Snap" errors.
• Apply COUNT_DISTINCT on multiple fields simultaneously.
• Experience faster auto-completion with context-aware suggestions.
• Smarter behavioral improvements:
  • Group by automatically adds exists conditions, fixing issues with missing keys.
  • Aggregate logs and traces at 5-second granularity instead of 60-second minimum.
  • Negative operators properly include results without the field.
• Non-existent filter keys now show errors with suggestions instead of silently returning no results.

New for OSS Users: Cobra Command Line Interface

SigNoz is now available as a cobra command CLI. Running signoz --help gives you access to OpenTelemetry-native logs, metrics and traces in a single pane with the following commands:

• help - Help about any command
• server - Run the SigNoz server

Span Details Drawer Enhancements

The span details drawer tabs now display item counts directly in the tab headers.

• See Attributes, Events, and Links counts at a glance without switching tabs.
• Quickly identify which tabs have content and which are empty.
• Better context when investigating traces with multiple spans.

Dynamic Multi-Step Trace Funnels

Trace funnels now support unlimited steps, removing the previous 3-step limitation.

• Create funnels with any number of steps to track complex user journeys through distributed systems.
• Latency pointer highlights performance bottlenecks at each step.
• Dynamic query builders replace hardcoded functions, enabling n-step funnel analysis.
• Temporal ordering maintained across all steps for accurate sequence tracking.
• Step indexing automatically handles proper ordering for API calls.
• "Add Funnel Step" button always visible, allowing continuous addition of steps.

UI Improvements

• Ctrl/Cmd + click on items in "Dashboard List", "Alert List" and "Key Operations" table now opens it in a new tab, preserving your current context while exploring.
• Alert module enhancements with clearer visualizations, improved error states, and better feedback messages.
