OTel is an open source observability framework. Administrators can use it to send agent activity data to their organization’s compatible monitoring tools. This helps teams:

Analyze agent sessions: Follow the flow of a session, including requests to AI models and the tools an agent uses.

Investigate unexpected behavior: Review step-by-step traces of agent execution in their existing monitoring tools.

Manage monitoring centrally: Apply telemetry settings across teams instead of requiring each developer to individually configure them.

Get started

Configure the telemetry property in your enterprise’s managed-settings.json file to enable export and specify the endpoint that will receive the data. Prompt and response content is excluded by default—review your content-capture settings before enabling it.
