Upload a JSON trace file

You can upload a JSON file that contains a single trace and visualize it. If the file has multiple traces, Grafana visualizes the first trace.

To download a trace or Service Graph through the inspector:

  1. Open the inspector.

  2. Navigate to the Data tab.

  3. Click Download traces or Download Service Graph.
