Annotation Query Format
An annotation is an event that is overlayed on top of graphs. The query can have up to four columns per row, the time_sec column is mandatory. Annotation rendering is expensive so it is important to limit the number of rows returned. - column with alias: time_sec for the annotation event. Format is UTC in seconds, use the below to convert a datetime column to UTC unix time stamp: DATEDIFF(second, {d '1970-01-01'}, DATEADD(second, DATEDIFF(second,GETDATE(),GETUTCDATE()), column_name) ) - column with alias: text for the annotation text - column with alias: tags for annotation tags. This is a comma separated string of tags e.g. 'tag1,tag2' Macros: - $__time(column) -> DATEDIFF(second, {d '1970-01-01'}, DATEADD(second, DATEDIFF(second,GETDATE(),GETUTCDATE()), column) ) as time_sec - $__timeFilter(column) -> column > DATEADD(s, 1492750877+DATEDIFF(second,GETUTCDATE(),GETDATE()), '1970-01-01') AND column < DATEADD(s, 1492750877+DATEDIFF(second,GETUTCDATE(),GETDATE()), '1970-01-01') - $__unixEpochFilter(column) -> column > 1492750877 AND column < 1492750877 Or build your own conditionals using these macros which just return the values: - $__timeFrom() -> DATEADD(second, 1492750877+DATEDIFF(second,GETUTCDATE(),GETDATE()), '1970-01-01') - $__timeTo() -> DATEADD(second, 1492750877+DATEDIFF(second,GETUTCDATE(),GETDATE()), '1970-01-01') - $__unixEpochFrom() -> 1492750877 - $__unixEpochTo() -> 1492750877
