Click to filter
Click any value on a result row to add it to your search. The single most useful shortcut for investigations.
Click to filter
Almost every visible value on a result row is clickable. Click one and that value becomes a filter in your SOQL search, narrowing the result list.
This is the fastest way to drill into an investigation. You rarely need to type a query by hand once you have results on screen.
What you can click
On a collapsed row:
- Event name (the
chat_rate_limit_hitstyle identifier) - Actor (e.g.,
player:CharlesSmith)
On an expanded row:
- Every key in the payload list, including all
payload.*entries - The canonical fields at the top of the payload (
severity,event,actor,source,message,dataset)
On the facets sidebar:
- Any value in the SEVERITY, DATASET, or SOURCE breakdown
On the timeline:
- Click a bar to filter to events inside that minute (or whatever the bucket size is)
- Drag across multiple bars to filter to a custom range
What gets added to the query
The exact filter depends on the field type:
- severity values use the unquoted form:
severity:warn. Severity is a known enum so this is the canonical form. - All other fields use double-quoted strings:
actor:"player:CharlesSmith",dataset:"player-actions",payload.player:"CharlesSmith". Special characters inside the value get escaped automatically.
The new filter is appended to your current query with AND. So clicking actor:player:CharlesSmith while your query reads severity:error produces:
severity:error AND actor:"player:CharlesSmith"If your query was empty, the click sets it as the seed predicate (no leading AND).
Undoing a click
The toolbar has a ← BACK button that steps backwards through the queries you ran. One click takes you back to the previous query. See Back button.
Tips
- Stack filters quickly. Click a severity, then an actor, then a dataset. Three clicks turns "100 events" into "the 3 events you care about".
- Read the URL after each click. The active query is in
?q=..., so you can copy the URL at any point to share or bookmark. - Use [click to filter] with the timeline. Run a query, see a spike on the sparkline, click the spike bar to drill into that minute, then click an actor to pin it.
What it does not do
- Clicks do not REPLACE the current query (they append). To start over, clear the search bar manually.
- Clicks do not change the time range. The picker at the top right controls that separately.
- Clicks on the same value twice produce two identical clauses. SOQL is happy with the redundancy but you can clean them up by hand if you want a tidy URL.
