This section demonstrates how to perform aggregation operations on log data using the SigNoz Logs API. The example provided focuses on counting distinct components and grouping the results by container_id
Example of Aggregating Logs
The following example illustrates how to count distinct component values and group them by container_id. This can be useful for understanding the distribution of different components across various containers.
