Using Application Tracking ID for Filtering in Signoz
TLDR Shuba wanted to replace Signoz trace id with their application's tracking id. nitya-signoz explained this was impossible but suggested using the application tracking id as an attribute instead and provided relevant links.

We need help to use our applications tracking id to filter logs and traces instead of the trace id generated by Signoz. Can we get some help here please ?
