Error Timeline

Category: Errors · Widget ID: errors.timeline

What it shows

Aggregates downtime caused by errors across the selected period, so you can see total error impact over time.

Data and refresh

  • Data source: Reports API (time series).
  • Time range: Respects the selected time period (plotted across the window).
  • Machine filter: Respects the selected machine(s).
  • Widget locks: You can lock this widget to its own machine and/or time range (Machine lock / Time lock) so it ignores the dashboard filters. See Custom Dashboard.

Configuration

Open the widget's filter menu (slider icon), then select Configure to change:

  • Time interval
  • Series mode: Split by message or Aggregate messages
  • Message scope: All messages or Selected messages only
  • Show legend

How to read it

Bars/segments show error-caused downtime per time bucket. Use it to see when error downtime concentrated.

Interactions

  • Widget filter (top-right icon) — open the widget's own settings to change its display.

Troubleshooting

Widget shows no data -> No events in the selected machine/period, or a filter is too narrow -> Widen the time range or change the machine, then refresh once -> If a machine that normally reports data stays empty, use Troubleshooting > Connectivity.
