SLO grid search and filtering

Reading time: 0 minute(s) (0 words)

You can search and filter SLOs on the SLO grid to quickly locate specific SLOs using project hierarchy, smart search logic, and advanced filtering options.

Points to consider:

• Label inheritance: Search results include SLOs with direct labels and those inherited from parent services and projects
• Multiple filter types: You can combine name-based, project-based, and label-based filters
• Role-based access: A filtered list contains only the SLOs where you have at least Project viewer permissions

Search and filter methods

Search by keyword

To search SLOs and services by keyword, enter one or more keywords in the search box. Alternatively, enter a part of a keyword.

To filter by two or more keywords, separate them with spaces. Nobl9 looks for the search parameters in the following fields:

• Service name or display name

• SLO name or display name

  

  Searching SLOs by keyword

Nobl9 applies AND logic and returns SLOs as follows:

• Individual SLOs with the keyword in their names or display names
• SLOs housed in services with the keyword in their names or display names

Project-based filtering

To filter SLOs by project:

1. Click next to the search field.
2. Specify the required project names.
3. Click Apply.

You can filter by multiple projects at a time.

Filtering SLOs by projects

Nobl9 applies OR logic and returns SLOs nested under all selected projects.

Label-based filtering

To filter SLOs by label:

1. Click next to the search field.
2. Specify the required key: value pairs.
3. Click Apply.

You can use any number and combination of key: value pairs.

Filtering SLOs by labels

Nobl9 applies AND logic for labels with different keys and OR—for labels with the same key. It returns SLOs as follows:

• Individual SLOs labeled with selected key: value pairs
• SLOs housed in services and projects labeled with selected key: value pairs

Filter combinations

Combine multiple filters for precise results:

• Keywords + project + labels or multiple labels with the different keys to filter SLOs that satisfy all specified criteria
• Multiple labels with the same key to filter SLOs that satisfy at least one criterion
• Multiple projects to filter SLOs that satisfy at least one criterion

Nobl9 applies specific rules when returning individual SLOs and SLOs nested within services or projects based on your filtering criteria. The logic is as follows:

Filter combination Filtering logic	SLOs returned	Combination impact on the search results
Multiple keywords AND	SLOs with all keywords SLOs from the services with all keywords	Narrows the search
Keyword and project AND	SLOs with the specified keyword nested under the specified project SLOs from the services with the specified keyword nested under the specified project	Narrows the search
Keyword, project, and label AND	SLOs with the specified keyword, labeled with the specified key: value pair from the specified project SLOs from the services with the specified keyword, labeled with specified key: value pair from the specified project	Narrows the search
Different-key labels AND	SLOs labeled with all key:value pairs SLOs from the services and projects labeled with all key:value pairs	Narrows the search
Same-key labels OR	SLOs labeled with at least one key:value pair SLOs from the services and projects labeled with at least one key: value pair	Broadens the search
Multiple projects OR	SLOs from all specified projects	Broadens the search

For example

When we apply the filters in the image, Nobl9 returns the following:

• SLOs with and and ping in their names or display names
• All SLOs nested in services that contain and and ping in their names or display names
• All SLOs from projects:
  • customer-facing-applications, server-side-monitoring, user-retention
• SLOs labeled as follows:
  • composite: true anomaly_notifications: true region: eu OR
  • composite: true anomaly_notifications: true region: us
• All SLOs from services and projects labeled as follows:
  • composite: true anomaly_notifications: true region: eu OR
  • composite: true anomaly_notifications: true region: us
