Examining the Traces

Clicking on the function in the service map shows a graph of the response distribution.

The response distribution is shown with durations and response statuses.

By clicking on a trace you can see:

  • The flow from Lambda function to AWS S3
  • The Lambda's function errors
  • The error exeptions

By using structured logs, you can report on certain fields.

For example, you can specifically look for timestamp, status, request ID and message.
