Ask Olly

Ask Olly opens the Olly side drawer already scoped to the screen you're on, so you can investigate what you're looking at without describing it first. It's available across Coralogix — from the Ask Olly button in the page header, or with the Cmd+I / Ctrl+I keyboard shortcut.

When you open Ask Olly on a supported screen, Olly automatically picks up that screen as context — its query, time range, and filters — and shows it as a chip above the prompt. You can also pin specific records yourself. Both kinds of context are covered in Page and data context.

What you need

• Olly turned on for your account. If the Ask Olly button shows a lock icon, contact your team admin or see Enable Olly.

Open Ask Olly

You can open Ask Olly from anywhere in Coralogix:

• Page header: Select the Ask Olly button. It carries the Olly logo and the Cmd+I / Ctrl+I shortcut, and opens or closes the drawer.
• Keyboard shortcut: Press Cmd+I (macOS) or Ctrl+I (Windows/Linux) from any page.

If your team admin hasn't turned on AI for the account, the Ask Olly button shows a lock icon and stays inactive until AI is enabled. See Enable Olly.

How Olly knows what you're looking at

Olly answers in the context of where you opened the chat. Two kinds of context appear as removable chips above the prompt:

• Page context (automatic): Olly picks this up from the screen you're on — its query, time range, and filters. The chip is labelled with the screen name and the suffix Page (for example, Logs Page).
• Data context (manual): specific objects you pin yourself with Add to Olly context — a log, a span, a metric chart, or a dashboard widget.

For how chips group, update, and clear, see Page and data context.

Where Ask Olly uses page context

On the screens below, opening Ask Olly attaches a page-context chip automatically. Everywhere else in Coralogix, the Ask Olly button still opens the drawer — you'll see a Page context not yet supported here note, and Olly answers from across your whole environment instead of the current screen.

Area	Screens with page context	What the chip carries
Explore	Logs, Spans, and the Highlights tab	The current query, time range, and filters
Custom Dashboards	Any dashboard	The dashboard you're viewing
Tracing	The trace drilldown, opened from Explore Spans, APM, or RUM	The trace ID and the selected span's fields, plus suggested queries
RUM	Every RUM screen and drilldown — overview, sessions, errors, web vitals, network and mobile performance, measurements, versions, and releases	The screen's filters and time range
Cases	A single case, or the cases list	The case you're viewing, or the list
AI Center	Overview, application and policy catalogs, AI-SPM, code agents, AI Explorer, applications, and policy configuration	The AI Center view and your current selections
Account management	Data Usage, Org Quota Manager, and Quota Rules	Your usage or quota view — tab, timeframe, aggregation, group-by, and filters

The page-context chip updates as you work: change a filter, the timeframe, or the view, and your next question uses the updated context — you don't need to reopen the drawer.

Add specific objects as context

Beyond the automatic page context, you can pin individual records to a chat so Olly reasons about the exact objects you picked. Select Add to Olly context on a log, span, metric chart, or dashboard widget to pin it as a removable chip. The control is available on the logs and spans tables, the log and span detail panels, Explore time-series charts, and dashboard widgets.

For the full list of entry points and how pinned objects group and clear, see Page and data context.

Detailed guides

Two screens pair Ask Olly with curated suggested queries for a specific investigation:

• Ask Olly about a span or trace: investigate a trace from the trace drilldown, with five trace-scoped suggested queries: root cause, highest latency, downstream failure, deployment correlation, and next debug step.
• Ask Olly on data pipeline screens: investigate usage, quota, and cost on the Data Usage, Org Quota Manager, and Quota Rules screens, with quick-query prompts matched to each screen.
