The new Spans Table widget brings a sortable, self-refreshing table of spans to your dashboards and the query builder.

Dashboards can now pin a live Spans Table showing raw spans next to charts. Features include:

  • Sortable table by start time, duration, or status code
  • Customizable columns (name, service, duration, span kind, status, and more)
  • Add any attribute as its own column
  • Scope with filters and dashboard variables
  • Each row links directly into the Trace Explorer with your columns and filters preserved

View live spans right beside your metrics and logs without leaving the dashboard.
