Inspect Events

The Search page supports the Inspect option, which allows detailed examination of a single event for deeper investigation.

To access this functionality you may either:

  • Click on an event in search results

  • Click the context menu Inspect

Inspect an event

Figure 82. Inspect an event


Both methods open the Inspection panel, which provides a structured view of all fields and their values within that specific event. Available views are:

  • Fields shows all available fields in the selected event and displays both parsed and raw field values. You can select fields by entering field names (case-insensitive) in the filter box, separated by comma.

  • Message shows the original, unparsed log message that was sent to LogScale. The full message is also available on all events in a special field called @rawstring.

  • JSON shows the log message in JSON format. It is the same visualization as when you choose the Field Data Types. Click on any field under JSON to get some contextual menus, as described at Field Interactions.

  • ⊜ — Match value in query

  • — Exclude value in query

  • — Group by value
