Query parameters

Parameters
view

enum (ViewType)

Optional. Type of data returned for traces in the list. Default is MINIMAL.
pageSize

integer

Optional. Maximum number of traces to return. If not specified or <= 0, the implementation selects a reasonable value. The implementation may return fewer traces than the requested page size.
pageToken

string

Token identifying the page of results to return. If provided, use the value of the nextPageToken field from a previous request.
startTime

string (Timestamp format)

Start of the time interval (inclusive) during which the trace data was collected from the application.

Uses RFC 3339, where generated output will always be Z-normalized and uses 0, 3, 6 or 9 fractional digits. Offsets other than "Z" are also accepted. Examples: "2014-10-02T15:01:23Z", "2014-10-02T15:01:23.045123456Z" or "2014-10-02T15:01:23+05:30".
endTime

string (Timestamp format)

End of the time interval (inclusive) during which the trace data was collected from the application.

Uses RFC 3339, where generated output will always be Z-normalized and uses 0, 3, 6 or 9 fractional digits. Offsets other than "Z" are also accepted. Examples: "2014-10-02T15:01:23Z", "2014-10-02T15:01:23.045123456Z" or "2014-10-02T15:01:23+05:30".
filter

string

Optional. A filter against properties of the trace. See filter syntax documentation for details.
orderBy

string

Optional. Field used to sort the returned traces. Can be one of the following:

  • traceId
  • name (name field of root span in the trace)
  • duration (difference between endTime and startTime fields of the root span)
  • start (startTime field of the root span)

Descending order can be specified by appending desc to the sort field (for example, name desc).

Only one sort field is permitted.

Request body

The request body must be empty.

Response body

The response message for the traces.list method.

If successful, the response body contains data with the following structure:

JSON representation 
{
  "traces": [
    {
      object (Trace)
    }
  ],
  "nextPageToken": string
}
Fields
traces[]

object (Trace)

List of trace records as specified by the view parameter.
nextPageToken

string

If defined, indicates that there are more traces that match the request and that this value should be passed to the next request to continue retrieving additional traces.

Authorization scopes

Requires one of the following OAuth scopes:

  • https://www.googleapis.com/auth/trace.readonly
  • https://www.googleapis.com/auth/cloud-platform

For more information, see the Authentication Overview.

ViewType

Type of data returned for traces in the list.

Enums
VIEW_TYPE_UNSPECIFIED Default is MINIMAL if unspecified.
MINIMAL Minimal view of the trace record that contains only the project and trace IDs.
ROOTSPAN Root span view of the trace record that returns the root spans along with the minimal trace data.
COMPLETE Complete view of the trace record that contains the actual trace data. This is equivalent to calling the REST get or RPC traces.get method using the ID of each listed trace.
