Correlating Events with Anomalies

Events are displayed as blue vertical plot lines overlaying the Anomaly charts. An Event Viewer is displayed on the right-hand side.

VIEWING EVENT DETAILS

Each blue vertical plot line on a chart is the aggregate of the events within the customer-defined tile time-resolution [1 minute/ 5 minutes/ 1 hour/ 1 day...] 

To view detailed information per event, hover over the chart. A tooltip is displayed for each Event line, displaying the: 

  • The event date and time
  • Total number of Events that occurred within the specified aggregated tile time resolution

To view data for single events within the aggregated time range, click an Event plot line. The Event Viewer will display  the events in the specified timed range by:

  • Source [source icon]
  • Title
  • Time

 

To display additional properties  [including filter tags], for a selected Event,  click the blue ellipsis button .

To create and edit Events, see API Reference - Events.

  1. In the Event Viewer, click the Filter by tags, properties or search text field [or start typing to display an autofill menu].
  2. Select the property and values by which to filter. You can add as many filter tags as you want.

The display of the Events plot line on the Anomalies charts will be updated accordingly.

Note: The total number of Events for a given Time Range is displayed in the Title bar of the Events Viewer,
