Description

To further investigate the end-user impact of a given service and identify the time this service is on the critical path i.e. causing the end-to-end request to take more time to complete we have introduced a critical path view for individual traces and an aggregated critical path view calculated on a set of traces.

The feature is currently in technical preview and can be enabled through the APM Labs or Kibana advanced settings.

👋 @gbamparop @dgieselaar I'm able to use the critical path view in the trace sample timeline with no problems. The Aggregated critical path tab is still there, but when I click it:

  • On the Transaction details page it renders a blank box
  • On the Trace explorer I just see a spinning loading icon

Can you confirm if the aggregated critical path functionality is still working in v8.15.1?

@dgieselaar just checked on edge-lite, It's blank on the transaction details page, I think there's something wrong in the UI, I had to add height to some containers to display it.
