2 years ago I think you can do that with the Kafka driver for dependencies cc @jeqo

Hello,
Today, I could use the dependencies api to get the services link by inputting a timestamp value but it is very tedious to get the exact timestamp. We want to use the trace data to derive service links for a particular traceId. This will be of more value as we will be tagging custom attribute to the trace data like business identifiers like customerId and then using this customerId to get the traceId and then get the links of all services involved in the transaction.
Is there any appetite to add this feature to get service links based on a traceid pls? Or if someone can guide me how to do it easily or if someone already did it before?
This will come specially handy in building lineage of data in the database for a business transactions. for example - I can decide to drop all data for prospect customers after 6 months from database if their status is "LOST Opportunity". But in a big system, one may not know which all services are involved and how to clear data from 10-15 databases. Hope this makes sense on why I need such a capability. Thanks!!
