Using the Dynatrace Logs App with OpenTelemetry - Episode 3

In this 18-minute tutorial video, learn how to navigate OpenTelemetry data using the Dynatrace Logs App as Andi demonstrates its capabilities to Adriana using the OpenTelemetry Demo. Discover how to pull up the Logs app, apply filters, view and interact with log attributes, display attributes in table format, examine code file paths for log messages, view surrounding logs for context, and open associated traces. Understand the differences between classic and non-classic applications in Dynatrace, run DQL queries on logs, and utilize Notebooks for further analysis. The video includes useful links to related resources including the first episode in the series, the Dynatrace Playground Environment, and documentation on how Dynatrace supports OpenTelemetry.
