Value Panel Type

Value

Value panels are used to display a single value of a metric, APM, or log.

Data Formats

Supported signals

  • Logs
  • Traces
  • Metrics

This panel type supports any time series data that can be aggregated to a single value. The time series data can be from logs, traces, or metrics.

Setup

The following graph shows the combined average requests per second (req/s) for all services over a period of time.

Value for req/s over period of time
Value for req/s over period of time.

Configuration

  • Choose the signal type (logs, traces, metrics)
  • Choose the metric, APM, or log to display
  • Reduce: choose the function to reduce the data (e.g. avg, sum, max, min, or latest). This step aggregates the data over the selected time period and returns a single value. For example, if you have a request rate over a period of time, the avg function will return the average of per-minute request rate over the period.

Options

Unit

The unit of the value. The default unit is None.

Thresholds

Thresholds are used to configure the color of the value. The thresholds are defined as a list of tuples. Each tuple contains the value and the color. The color is optional and if not provided, the default color will be used.
