Skip to main contentI don’t see OpenAI spans
- Ensure
opentelemetry-instrumentation-openai is installed and instrumented before your first model call.
- Confirm exporter endpoint and API key env vars.
I only see a few spans (too flat)
- If using Traceloop/OpenLLMetry, ensure native OTEL instrumentations (OpenAI/HTTP) are enabled alongside it.
- Disable any sampler dropping child spans; try
OTEL_TRACES_SAMPLER=always_on in staging.
My prompts are missing
- You may have content tracing disabled. In dev, set
TRACELOOP_TRACE_CONTENT=true.
High cardinality / too many spans
- Start with raw OTEL only. Add semantic steps only for stable, top‑level functions.
