Question

I got traces after I submitted a search with no tags specified.

And there were traces with http.method:GET tag:

Then I added http.method:GET tag and searched again, I got nothing.

Why did I get no traces with http.method:GET tag? Is there something wrong with my usage of tag search?

I was using v8.4.0 with JDK 1.8.0_162 on macOS 10.15.5. I used the default storage backend. And I did not update ./config/application.yml.

I am looking at the demo env, it is working.

Check searchableTracesTags in your application.yml, it should be like this in the core module

Trace search with tags works with es7. But it does not work with MySQL and h2.
