- [Instructor] Okay, I'm in my application project directory. So I'm going to run a quick Maven command to start the Jetty instance. Run, we're starting our backend. Okay, our backend service is running. Now import my thousand. Next I'm going to generate a quick request to our apij service which will generate a trace. And this will bring localhost port 9000, and I'm calling the apij service, and I'm going to pass a username parameter as a header. Now this should of generated a trace in Jaeger, so next I'm going to go and take a look at the Jaeger UI and see what a trace looks like. 'kay, I'm in the Jaeger UI. So here I will just refresh.
