Traces now support Tree and Waterfall views
By Steven Van ·
Vercel Logs traces can now be viewed as a duration-sorted tree or a chronological waterfall, without leaving the log entry.
Traces in Vercel Logs now support two additional views alongside the existing timeline, viewable directly from the log entry.
- The Tree view groups spans by parent and child, sorting them by duration on load so the slowest spans appear first.
- The Waterfall view places every span on one chronological axis, showing what ran in parallel and where time was lost.
See the Tracing documentation for details.
