Filtering Traces by Custom Attributes in Phoenix UI

Nick C. · 2025-02-14T20:37:46.273Z

hey folks, I'm trying to filter traces based on custom attributes in the phoenix UI. Can you please help? We're sending a custom attribute called org_id and was hoping something like this would work: metadata['org_id'] != 618 Feel free to point me to the docs, but didn't see anything at first glance. Thanks!

Filtering traces by custom attributes like `org_id` directly in the Phoenix UI is not currently supported for nested JSON attributes. The UI filtering capabilities are limited to top-level attributes, and using expressions like `metadata['org_id'] != '618'` won't work as expected in the UI. For more information, you can refer to the <https://github.com/Arize-ai/phoenix/issues/2266|Phoenix GitHub issue> discussing similar limitations. Would you like more detail on possible workarounds or further assistance? Sources: - <https://github.com/Arize-ai/phoenix/issues/2266|Phoenix GitHub issue>
