(OUI Icons) Visualize for SQl / PPL / PromQL

[anirudha]

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe. We need new feature icons for : Query PPL - create a visualization with Piped processigng language Query PromQL - create a visualization with Prometheus Query Language Query SQL - create a visualization with SQL

Describe the solution you'd like A simple icon that says, SQL , PPL , PromQL

@anirudha a few follow up thoughts and questions in order to ensure we create the appropriate visual representation.

• Can a user create multiple visualizations from any of the query languages above? IE: Line, area, pie, etc
• These visualizations are now Saved Objects, correct? If so, we need to also consider if we use the same icon for "visualization" in that saved objects list, or if we differentiate the icon like we did for VisBuilder, because the "shape" of the object is different, which may matter to admins. @ashwin-pc can you weigh in on this?
• Are these visualization types of visualization building methods, like VisBuilder? I believe all thee icons would take the user to the same interface, correct? I am wondering if 3 icons are necessary, since they land the user in the same interface, or if 1 will do the trick? Its a similar model to VisBuilder, where the user choose VisBuilder as the build method and then can create visualizations and change the details as they go.
• If we do move forward with 3 icons, I would not position them alphabetically in this list, either, but target adding them next to VisBuilder as they are build types. Would that be possible?

Additionally - we could target 2.8 to redesign the New visualization modal in order to address the new paradigm of different ways to build visualizations. I have created a related issue here to address the mis-match of what we are trying to communicate in this modal.

We are releasing this is 2.7 as per the core and observability cohesion.

• you can create line, bar, pie etc all ppl based viz. more will be added in 2.8
• this is core vis object and will support the type visualization as a type
• the current list is alphabetical, we need to change that or create a separator for other visualizations let's decide what we want / anything is possible

Here are the proposed icons - one for PromQL, SQL, PPL and a non labeled one to use as the icon for the object in the Saved Objects table.

Note: these were delivered to OUI today in order to cut the OUI 1.1 release in order to give you the correct icon name space. I call this out because we need more time to iterate on the label fidelity, but given the short timeline this was the best we could do.

Please refer to this issue #628 for the names of the icons as they will be listed in OUI.

Fixed issue regarding discrepancy with "PPL" in icon, please review.

Closing as complete design task request - see issue #628 for adding these icons to OUI in prep for 1.1 release.

can we have a simpler icon for PPL that will be clearly visible in tiny settings eg. or just PPL cc: nitin josh
