Prerequisites
Before diving in, make sure you’ve:
- Completed the onboarding flow, check out Quickstart for more info
- Added Deeptrace to a channel with engineering alerts
Investigate Alerts in Slack
Deeptrace activates on every alert in your connected Slack channel. When an alert fires, it automatically launches an investigation that analyzes logs, metrics, traces, and commits to respond with a clear root cause summary within minutes. You’ll see a message like this directly in Slack:
Debug with Deeptrace
In your Slack channel, simply@Deeptraceto ask clarifying questions or debug alongside Deeptrace as it understands the full context of that specific incident.
For example:

Access the Web View
At the bottom of each Deeptrace investigation, you’ll find a “View full investigation” button that opens the web dashboard. Clicking this will access the full web view. In the web interface, you can:- See every retrieved data source (logs, traces, commits)
- Inspect citations for each claim Deeptrace makes
- Review key evidence supporting the RCA summary

Monitor Analytics
Track your Deeptrace performance and investigation trends on the Deeptrace Dashboard. In the analytics page, you can view the total investigations Deeptrace has performed and its investigation success rate by channel.
