List

The List visualization displays log entries as a scrollable list of rows. It is purpose-built for the Logs data source and shows each log entry with its body and timestamp by default. You can add custom fields to surface additional context alongside each row.

When to Use

• Browsing raw log output line by line
• Inspecting individual log entries with surrounding context fields
• Searching and filtering logs without aggregation

Building a List Panel

1. Open the Data Explorer
2. Select Logs as the data source
3. Configure your query and filters (see Query Builder)
4. Select List as the Panel Type in the right sidebar
5. Click Run to render the list

Default View

By default the list shows two columns for every log entry:

Custom Fields

Add extra columns to the list by selecting attributes in the Fields row below the query builder. Click + Add field and pick an attribute, or type @ to search available log attributes. Each added field becomes a column in the list.

In the example at the top of this page, timestamp, workload, namespace, and cluster have been added as fields. The list shows a workload column alongside the timestamp, making it easy to identify which service produced each entry.

Each field tag has its own controls:

Reordering Fields

Fields render as columns in the order they appear in the Fields row, from left to right. To change the column order, grab a field's drag handle (⋮⋮) and drop it into a new position — the list re-renders with the columns in the new order. This lets you arrange the most relevant attributes first without removing and re-adding fields.

Filtering

Use the filter row beneath the Fields input to narrow results by status, protocol, resource, or any other log attribute — the same filtering controls available in other panel types. See Query Builder — Logs and Traces Queries for details.
