Sending Data In

Observability starts with getting your AI activity into the platform. There are three ways to send traces — pick whichever fits your stack. All of them authenticate with your project API keys and produce the same traces and observations.

Create project API keys under Settings → API Keys (see API Keys), then configure your SDK or exporter with them.

1. SDKs

The native SDKs give you the richest instrumentation — manual tracing, decorators, and auto-instrumentation of popular LLM clients.

2. OpenTelemetry (OTLP)

If you already emit OpenTelemetry, point your OTLP exporter at the platform's OTLP endpoint and your spans become traces — including GenAI semantic conventions, agent frameworks, and coding agents.

3. Framework integrations

Drop-in integrations instrument popular frameworks with a few lines:

What to send

To get the most out of observability, include:

  • sessionId — to group traces into sessions.
  • userId — to enable per-user analytics.
  • tags, metadata, and environment — to filter and slice traces.
  • Model, token, and cost details on generations — for accurate FinOps. Costs are computed from your model definitions.
