Show tree structure in Azure Monitor Workbook

Question

If I navigate to the "Logs"-section in Azure to find the entries of my Azure Monitor, I get a tree structure that looks like this:

In this example I am just showing all exceptions without any formatting.
By default I can expand an entry and then expand the stack trace etc.

I want to get the same behaviour inside of a workbook.
But here my items do not have any tree like structure. I just get a list of items like this:

The only thing I found was to change the column settings like this:

But this is not doing what I want. I think my exceptions do not have an id-parent id structure.
Any proposals how I can just show the same result in the workbook like in the normal query editor?

The grid control used by workbooks doesn't currently have that "Expand" behavior that the logs view does for expanding a single row inline.

The closest thing you can do, in the column settings for the grid, you can set a column to be a link, and have that link either:

• open up the "cell details" view to get a side panel with the contents of that specific cell (useful if the cell contains json or other content)
• open up the "generic details" view that shows all of the contents in that row

so for example in this example making the "tablename" column a text renderer (you can use links with any kind of renderer though), and making it open up the "generic details" view with these settings:

will result in a popup on the side that looks like:

(in this case i only have 2 columns so it isn't very exciting!)
