Pre-release

This release is a pre-release and may not be stable for production use.

https://badge.fury.io/py/opentelemetry-exporter-credential-provider-gcp.svg

This library provides support for supplying your machine’s Application Default Credentials (https://cloud.google.com/docs/authentication/application-default-credentials) to the OTLP Exporters created automatically by OpenTelemetry Python’s auto instrumentation. These credentials authorize OTLP traces to be sent to telemetry.googleapis.com.

Currently telemetry.googleapis.com only supports OTLP traces, but eventually the endpoint will support OTLP logs and metrics too.

To learn more about instrumentation and observability, including opinionated recommendations for Google Cloud Observability, visit Instrumentation and observability.

For how to export trace data when you use manual instrumentation visit Migrate from the Trace exporter to the OTLP endpoint.

Installation

pip install opentelemetry-exporter-credential-provider-gcp

Usage

Your installed HTTP/GRPC OTLP Exporter must be at release >=1.37 for this feature.

Set the following environment variables: export OTEL_RESOURCE_ATTRIBUTES=”gcp.project_id=<project-id>” export OTEL_EXPORTER_OTLP_TRACES_ENDPOINT=”https://telemetry.googleapis.com:443/v1/traces”

If you plan to have python auto instrumentation use the GRPC OTLP Exporter to send traces to Cloud Trace: export OTEL_PYTHON_EXPORTER_OTLP_GRPC_TRACES_CREDENTIAL_PROVIDER=gcp_grpc_credentials

If you plan to have python auto instrumentation use the HTTP OTLP Exporter to send traces to Cloud Trace: export OTEL_PYTHON_EXPORTER_OTLP_HTTP_TRACES_CREDENTIAL_PROVIDER=gcp_http_credentials
