Viewing Raw Data Examples in the Dashboard

This feature is available on both the Investigations page, where users can dive into specific segments, and view the raw data of these segments, as well as on Insight pages, where users can better understand anomalous segments by correlating statistical insights with raw data. In this document, we will take a deeper look at how this feature is utilized in these two contexts, and how to enable it with different field types.

Let’s take a glimpse of how this feature looks on the Investigations Page.

As you can see in this example, users can explore specific segments and see the corresponding raw data records.

And this is how it looks in an Insight page:

As you can see, when this feature is enabled, Mona not only detects anomalies but also surfaces Prominent Culprits in Data associated with them. This provides additional context to help users investigate and interpret the insights.

For example, if Mona detects a decrease in a specific metric within a segment, the Insight page will display records from the anomalous segment with the lowest values of that metric, allowing the users to directly examine the data that caused the anomaly.

How To Enable This Feature

To enable this feature, you need to set the field that contains the raw data as Data Enrichment Field.

• Navigate to: Configurations Page → Select the relevant context class → Edit the desired field or add a new one, and enable the data enrichment field toggle. (Backfill is not required)

  

When this feature is enabled, Mona displays raw data values directly in the dashboard. If a field is set as a string type and contains a URL, Mona will attempt to render a specialized visual for it if the URL has one of the following supported formats:
• Images: .jpg, .jpeg, .png, .gif, .webp, .bmp, .svg
• Audio files: .mp3, .wav, .ogg, .flac, .aac, .m4a, .wma
• Video files: .mp4, .avi, .mov, .wmv, .flv, .mkv, .webm, .mpeg

If the URL does not match any of these formats, Mona will simply display the URL as text.

Finally, you can now access a specific raw data example also in the data table of any segment by clicking the "View Table" button on the Investigations Page and hovering over the URL.

Segment Data Tables

Another way to view raw data in the dashboard is through the "View Table" buttons. These buttons allow you to access a data table for a specific segment or multiple segments, filtered based on the current filters applied to the page.

Within the table, If the URLs point to images or videos, hover over URLs to preview their content.
Finally, you can export this data for further analysis as JSON or CSV.
