| 19 | +You use Error Tracking to simplify debugging by grouping thousands of similar errors into a single issue. Use issue correlation to determine the cause of the issue, the impact it has on other services, and if the error is a result of a downstream dependency. |
| 20 | + |
| 21 | +Issue correlation also helps reduce noise from the issue list by identifying the most critical issues. This allows you to alert the right team and reach a quicker resolution. |
| 22 | + |
| 23 | +## Identify correlated issues |
| 24 | +To identify which issues across your services are correlated, navigate to the Error Tracking page at [**Error > Issues**][1]. |

| 36 | +The issue correlation map shows the following information about a given issue: |
| 37 | +- **Root cause**: the services that are likely to be causing the issue |
| 38 | +- **Current issue**: the issue selected along with whether it is assigned to a team |
| 39 | +- **Impact**: the resources, users, and sessions that are impacted |
