title: "06.16.2026: Time Range, Metrics, and Sharing Upgrades"
description: "A calendar time range picker with pan/zoom and live streaming controls, shareable trace URLs, trace and session annotation metrics, token detail charts, and opt-in PXI subagents."
---

This release brings a wave of time range improvements, richer project metrics, and finer control
over PXI — rolled out across arize-phoenix 17.5.0 through 17.7.0.

# Calendar Time Range Picker

**Available in arize-phoenix 17.5.0+**

The time range selector now includes a calendar view for choosing an exact window by clicking dates
instead of typing them.

- **Two-month range calendar** — open the picker to see two months side by side and click a start and end day to define your range
- **Editable start and end fields** — date fields sit under each month so you can fine-tune the bounds, including the time of day, before applying
- **Apply or cancel** — the range only commits when you apply it, so you can explore dates without disturbing the current view

# Pan, Zoom, and Live Streaming Controls

**Available in arize-phoenix 17.6.0+**

A compact control strip now sits beside the time range selector on the project and dashboards pages,
replacing the standalone streaming switch.

- **Pan and zoom** — step the window backward and forward or widen and narrow it without reopening the selector; large zoomed-out windows snap to readable units (for example `85d` instead of `2048h`)
- **Live streaming toggle** — a play/pause control on the project page turns live data streaming on and off, with a gentle pulse while streaming is active
- **Shared chrome** — the strip matches the height and styling of the time range selector so the two read as one control

# Shareable Trace Time Range URLs

**Available in arize-phoenix 17.7.0+**

Trace and session views now encode the time range in the URL, so a link you copy reproduces what you
were looking at for the recipient.

- **Time range in the link** — the active range travels with the URL, whether it's a named preset or an explicit start and end window
- **Presets stay relative** — sharing a preset link (such as the last hour) resolves to the recipient's current window, while a custom range shares the exact bounds you selected
- **Cleaner navigation** — selection state stays in the URL across tab changes, so refreshing or sharing a trace view keeps the same context

# Trace and Session Annotation Scores Over Time

**Available in arize-phoenix 17.6.0+**

The project metrics page now charts average annotation scores at the trace and session level,
alongside the existing span annotation scores.

- **Trace annotation scores** — a panel plots average trace annotation scores over the selected time range
- **Session annotation scores** — a matching panel tracks session-level annotation scores
- **Consistent visualization** — span, trace, and session annotation panels share the same chart, so scores across all three levels read the same way

# Token Detail Metrics Charts

**Available in arize-phoenix 17.7.0+**

The project metrics page adds two charts that break token usage down into its component parts over
time, complementing the existing token usage panel.

- **Prompt token details** — see prompt tokens split across input, cache, and audio parts
- **Completion token details** — see completion tokens split across output, reasoning, and audio parts
- **Time-aligned** — both charts follow the page's selected time range, so you can correlate token detail trends with cost and volume

# PXI Subagents Are Now Opt-In

**Available in arize-phoenix 17.5.0+ (PXI beta)**

PXI subagents — the parallel helpers that run read-only data lookups alongside the main
investigation — are now controlled by a toggle in assistant settings and default to off.

- **Subagents toggle** — find it directly below the Web Search toggle in your personal assistant settings
- **Off by default** — PXI runs without subagents until you enable the toggle, so you opt in to the additional token usage they can incur
- **Same behavior once enabled** — turning subagents on restores the parallel data-retrieval flow introduced in the June 10 PXI update
