Hey Team, I'm using SigNoz Cloud with Kubernetes auto-instrumentation for a .NET service. Auto-injection is working fine I can see the spans in the SigNoz dashboard. However, I'm also adding custom tags in the code, like this: Activity.Current?.SetTag("customer_id", "1234"). The issue is, I can't find these custom tags or their related spans anywhere in the SigNoz dashboard. I have some logging and I can see the activity is not null and its ID.
What I want to do is set up an alert based on the count of a specific custom tag for example, the number of spans where event_type="error".
Could someone help clarify:
• Are custom tags from .NET auto-instrumentation automatically exported to SigNoz Cloud?
• If they are, how can I see them in the query builder or when creating alerts?
• Is there a specific way to expose these tags as attributes or derived metrics so I can filter or alert on them?
Any example setup for this scenario using auto-injection (not the manual OTLP exporter)?
Thanks a lot
