great - graphs look even better today (apologies for the 2+ week blip) -- so i think this is resolved
Also ran:
SELECT dt, meta.stream, mediawiki.database, page.namespace_id, page.revision_id FROM event.product_metrics_web_base WHERE year = 2026 AND month = 8 AND day = 5 AND page.revision_id IS NOT NULL AND page.namespace_id IS NOT NULL LIMIT 20;
which returned:

So confirming that data collection is happening with the contextual attributes specified in the ticket description.

and it appears that evengate validation errors related to the mediawiki.product_metrics.wikifunctions_ui stream are dropping steadily tho slowly 😌
ok - i think we're finally getting somewhere - https://grafana-rw.wikimedia.org/goto/dfuar4s42ek8wc?orgId=default shows events finally showing up after the last backport fix to bump the wikilambda/ui_actions schema to reference the most recent web base schema 🎉
So I ran the follow queries on a stat machine:

@RLazarus graciously deployed the puppet patch at EOD today and when we did a test run of the maintenance script, realized there was an error (s/o to @Scott_French for the fix) so I quickly (possibly too boldly) pushed/self-merged https://gerrit.wikimedia.org/r/c/mediawiki/extensions/WikimediaEvents/+/1320295 and backported https://gerrit.wikimedia.org/r/c/mediawiki/extensions/WikimediaEvents/+/1320296
Fri, Jul 31
The edit_survived instrument is functionally complete in code and the maintenance script is scheduled for deployment on 8/4/26 (I will try to get it deployed earlier if possible)

thanks @mpopov - do we have an idea of how long this instrument should run? and traffic constraints?

Per discussion with the team, there was a consensus that the python and jobs metrics are not valuable for what we're looking in terms for GB health metrics. It'd be great if there were some metrics geared toward database queries, etc (we can inquire with GrowthBook). So for now we are treating this ticket as an investigation spike and closing for now

What GrowthBook's OTel instrumentation actually emits

Thanks @BTullis for your corrections! Super helpful - definitely got some things wrong in the proposal - my bad. Let me sort out what assumptions you debunked first, then propose next steps.

These are all things I tried to learn about by reading the current code and config and full disclosure, by conferring with Claude (in the sandbox!):

for WebUIScroll instrument - mediawiki.web_ui_scroll_migrated should maybe be deleted - added to ACs

tysm! works great

hi @Sfaci - quick Q - does
I'm probably forgetting the context for this ticket - are we sure we don't want to support custom schema ids? it seems like if the base schemas for whatever reason don't capture enough info, that we would still want to enable product teams to use custom schemas for edge cases?

as confirmed in Slack, MP java lib isn't being used in production and we haven't cut a release in a long time - i went ahead and merged the MR anyway so this ticket can be closed out -- we'll probably remove the Java lib and related infrastructure as part of some future cleanup

just an fyi - we removed Saved Groups functionality from the TK backend for now in https://gitlab.wikimedia.org/repos/data-engineering/test-kitchen/-/merge_requests/361 << some form of this will probably need to be reverted once we have a path forward to dealing with saved groups
