Export traces to 3rd party tools with Checkly

Exporting your check results as traces to a 3rd party OpenTelemetry backend is a great way to correlate check runs with other telemetry data. It’s also very simple to set up.

1. Flip the toggle to export traces in the Traces settings page.

2. Provide the trace endpoint URL and HTTP header with an API key for your preferred 3rd party OpenTelemetry backend.

   

After you’ve set this up, Checkly will instrument every HTTP request with a proper traceparent and tracestate header and send every check run as a trace to your 3rd party OpenTelemetry backend.
