  • select and modify Suggested Queries
  • locate information about your Events Retention and Usage, Daily Event Traffic, Event Latency History, and Event Rate

​
Default Granularity

Default Granularity affects the display of your Query Results visualizations. Granularity refers to the regular, known interval that data is captured. Queries in this dataset do not drop below the default granularity unless you choose to override it manually when making an individual query.Default Granularity controls the default granularity seen:
  • after running a query
  • for charts on the Home page
  • for Suggested Queries on a blank Query page
Choose your Default Granularity from the options in the dropdown list.Best practice is to set the default granularity with the interval at which data enters Honeycomb, which prevents the appearance of spiky graphs. For example, if your data enters the dataset at regular 30 second intervals, we recommend setting a default granularity of 30 seconds.

​
Suggested Queries

Suggested Queries allow you to select a board to provide suggested queries for this dataset. The selected Board must have at least one query that is specific to the dataset you want to use suggested queries for, be public, and the queries must be named.The queries will be shown anytime you land on a blank Query page. Multiple datasets can use the same board.
