# Accessing request traces
|
|
|
|
If you have not yet installed the logging and monitoring components, go through
|
|
the [installation instructions](./installing-logging-metrics-traces.md) to set
|
|
up the necessary components.
|
|
|
|
In order to access request traces, you use the Zipkin visualization tool.
|
|
|
|
1. To open the Zipkin UI, enter the following command:
|
|
|
|
```shell
|
|
kubectl proxy
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
This command starts a local proxy of Zipkin on port 8001. For security
|
|
reasons, the Zipkin UI is exposed only within the cluster.
|
|
|
|
1. Navigate to the
|
|
[Zipkin UI](http://localhost:8001/api/v1/namespaces/istio-system/services/zipkin:9411/proxy/zipkin/).
|
|
|
|
1. Click "Find Traces" to see the latest traces. You can search for a trace ID
|
|
or look at traces of a specific application. Click on a trace to see a
|
|
detailed view of a specific call.
