Query dropped traces in Adaptive Traces

Find the trace you need, even when it was dropped. Adaptive Traces now keeps every dropped trace queryable by trace ID for 24 hours after ingest, so a trace ID from a log line, exemplar, or an upstream system always returns a result. These traces don’t appear in TraceQL search results, the service graph, or aggregations.

Organize your Synthetic Monitoring checks in folders

Grafana Cloud Synthetic Monitoring now lets you organize your checks into Grafana Folders. As you create more checks or onboard new teams, a single flat list becomes hard to scan. With folders, you can group checks by team, service, or environment so the right checks are always easy to find and act on a whole group at once instead of one check at a time.

Adaptive Logs now walks you through creating a drop rule tailored to your environment in three guided steps: pick one of your highest-volume services, choose a drop rate, and review a pre-filled rule before any logs are dropped.
