dash0.span.events is a synthetic metric: it is not stored as a metric time
series, but computed on-the-fly from the ingested tracing data. It can be
filtered and grouped by any span event or resource attribute.
Deprecated PromQL alias: dash0_span_events_total.
Synthetic metrics do not expose attributes by default. Attributes are materialised through PromQL aggregations.
