Common questions

Find answers to common questions about getting started with Coralogix, choosing the right tools, organizing data, and integrating with existing workflows.

How long does it take for data to appear?

Data typically appears in Explore within a few minutes of setting up an integration. Use Livetail to verify data is arriving in real time. If data does not appear, check your API key, endpoint, and integration source.

What data sources does Coralogix support?

Coralogix supports logs, metrics, and traces from any source. Use OpenTelemetry for vendor-neutral collection, integration packages for one-step setup, or browse the full integrations catalog for cloud providers, shippers, and custom sources.

What is the difference between Explore, Livetail, and dashboards?

Explore is for searching, filtering, and investigating historical logs and traces. Livetail streams logs in real time as they arrive. Custom dashboards provide persistent visualizations of logs, metrics, and traces for ongoing monitoring. Use Explore to investigate, Livetail to verify, and dashboards to monitor.

How do I organize data across teams?

Use application and subsystem names to logically separate data by service or team. Combine with teams and scopes to control access and visibility.

Can I use Coralogix with my existing Grafana dashboards?

Yes. Coralogix provides a hosted Grafana instance and a Grafana plugin that connects to your Coralogix data. Import existing dashboards or build new ones using your Coralogix metrics.
