System and interface for integrating related content
Systems and methods are provided for a data intake and query system providing a user interface including corresponding content from a system external to the data intake and query system, such as an observability system. On receipt of input from a client device, the data intake and query system may generate a user interface including the corresponding content. To generate the user interface, the data intake and query system may access a unique identifier corresponding to updated data for the external system. The data intake and query system may then determine whether the updated data includes corresponding data. If so, the data intake and query system may include visualizations based on the corresponding data.

transmit, to a content delivery network (CDN), a request for the source code stored at the storage location received from the server;
in response to reception of the source code, insert the source code in a document object model (DOM) tree of the page, and execute the source code to access a first function;
