.show commands command

Applies to: ✅ Microsoft FabricAzure Data Explorer

.show commands returns a table with completed management commands. These commands are available to query for 30 days.

Note

This command is useful for investigating performance issues, as it shows the resources consumed by each management command. See Examples.

Permissions

A database admin or database monitor can see any command that was invoked on their database. Other users can only see their commands.

Syntax

.show commands

Returns

The return table has two columns with resources consumption details of every completed command.

  • TotalCpu - The total CPU clock time (User mode + Kernel mode) consumed by this command.
  • ResourceUtilization - Contains all resource use information related to that command, including the TotalCpu.

Resource consumption that is tracked includes data updates, and any query associated with the current admin command. Currently, only some of the management commands are covered by the commands table (.ingest, .set, .append, .set-or-replace, .set-or-append). Gradually, more commands are added to the commands table.

Examples

Extract data from the ResourceUtilization column

To access one of the properties within the ResourceUtilization column, call on ResourcesUtilization.PropertyName.

Note

ResourceUtilization is a dynamic column. To work with its values, you should first convert it into a specific data type. Use a conversion function such as tolong, toint, totimespan.

For example:

.show commands
| where CommandType == "TableAppend"
| where StartedOn > ago(1h)
| extend MemoryPeak = tolong(ResourcesUtilization.MemoryPeak)
| top 3 by MemoryPeak desc
| project StartedOn, MemoryPeak, TotalCpu, Text
