Grafana Correlations

Hello!

I am trying to implement a correlation link from Loki Logs to Mimir Metrics via a clickable button next to a specific log field, which is enabled via the Correlations feature in the Grafana Plugins and data settings.

The correlation link is not appearing in the UI.

  • Expected Behavior (The Fix): I enabled the correlation link on the Logs Data Source targeting my Mimir metrics. I expected to see a clickable button/link next to the value of the specified field (e.g., component) in the Explore.

  • Actual Behavior: The link button is not visible next to the field value in the Logs Panel/Explore.

Grafana Version 12.1.1
Correlation Setup Location Home > Administration > Plugins and data > Correlations
Source Loki/Logs
Target Data Source Mimir/Metrics
Results Field component

Hints:

  • I use multiple organizations in Grafana
  • labels have ‘Indexed label’ and ‘Parsed field’ - checked both

Thank you in advance and regards,
Damian
