Cannot display traces using the plugin

[vidommet]

What happened:
We upload our traces to Azure Data Explorer and are using the plugin to pull the data into Grafana. We are trying to display using the new trace support. We can map all the columns correctly as required but the tracing requires frame.meta.preferredVisualisationType = 'trace' which cannot be configured in the UI

What you expected to happen:
Allow traces as an option to be displayed.

How to reproduce it (as minimally and precisely as possible):

Example trace creation from data explorer.

OTELTrace
| take 10
| project traceID = env_dt_traceId, spanID = env_dt_spanId, parentSpanID = parentId, serviceName = env_name, serviceTags = "", startTime = PreciseTimeStamp, duration = PreciseTimeStamp - startTime

Anything else we need to know?:

Environment:

• Grafana version: 9.3.2.2
• Plugin version: 4.1.10
• OS Grafana is installed on: Azure Managed Grafana
• User OS & Browser:
• Others:

Hi! Tracing is supported for the plugins listed on that page. We'll definitely take this as something to consider implementing in the future for ADX.

Is it because the plugin is missing something or because in Grafana the visualization of traces is limited to specific plugins?

This is a much needed feature!

Trace support was added in #594 😊
