Is it possible to get the upstream service details(Calling service) to an inferred service through metrics ? Through inbuilt dimensions there is no option. Can someone suggest if its possible ?

Hi,
I’m probably not understanding the question completely, so feel free to provide a specific example if you want. One thing I will point out is that when thinking about what information you can get from an inferred service--it’s limited to what you can see from the trace spans that are generated when an instrumented service calls that uninstrumented inferred service. Here is a screen shot of a service-centric view of an inferred service and what you can see about it.
