We've moved the Custom Attributes feature into GA, it's now stable to use for everybody!

Hey folks 👋 we recently shipped a new feature called Custom Attributes that allow you to define HTTP headers that will be stored in our metrics database and made available in the Stellate dashboard. In particular, you could use this to store the values of the header, and Stellate would then show them in the details view of individual requests.

The feature is currently in Beta, you can find the documentation here: https://stellate.co/docs/platform/custom-attributes

Actually, re-reading this request, I'm going to re-open this and ask for more feedback.

As I mentioned in my previous message, Stellate now includes a header on requests to your GraphQL backends.

That same ID is also shown in the details view on Stellates Metrics dashboard.

Any other headers included on an incoming request to Stellate (e.g. a Cloudflare Ray ID, or a similar header) are included on requests to your backend. However, they aren't shown in the Metrics dashboard.

If you'd like those (external) headers to show up in the Metrics dashboard, please let us know.

If the header already solves your use case, please let us know as well. :)

Requests from Stellate to your GraphQL backends now include a header with a unique ID. That ID is also shown on the metrics dashboard and allows for easier tracing of requests through various systems.
