OpenObserve supports over 19 chart types for different visualization needs. Time-series data can be displayed using line graphs, area charts, and bar charts. Tables provide detailed data views with sorting and filtering. Heat maps show data density and patterns. Gauge visualizations display current values against thresholds. Each visualization type includes specific configuration options for customizing appearance and behavior.

Simply download the desired JSON file from our Community Dashboards repository, navigate to the Dashboards section in OpenObserve, click on "Import," select the file, and you're ready to go!

The drill-down feature enables navigation between related dashboards while maintaining context. You can navigate directly to logs or other dashboards while carrying over filter values, enabling a deeper level of data analysis without losing context.

OpenObserve supports multiple query languages for dashboard visualizations. You can use SQL for complex data analysis and aggregations, PromQL for metric queries, and VRL for data transformations. The query editor provides syntax highlighting and auto-completion. The Query Inspector helps debug and optimize query performance. Results can be previewed before adding to dashboards.

Dashboards can be customized with various options, including panel arrangements, time ranges, and refresh intervals. Variables allow dynamic filtering across multiple panels. Templates enable reusable dashboard configurations. Panel settings include axis labels, thresholds, and legends. Dashboards automatically adjust to different screen sizes and can be viewed in full-screen mode.

Dashboard panels support auto-refresh functionality with configurable intervals. You can set refresh rates per panel or globally for the entire dashboard. Time range controls allow viewing data from recent minutes to months. The system optimizes query performance to maintain responsiveness during updates.

Community dashboards are pre-built, ready-to-use dashboards for common use cases. They can be imported directly into your OpenObserve instance and customized as needed. These dashboards cover various monitoring scenarios, including infrastructure, applications, and services.

Dashboards can be shared with other users in your organization. Access controls determine who can view or edit specific dashboards. Shared dashboards maintain their configurations and auto-refresh settings. You can export dashboard configurations to share across environments or teams.
