OpenTelemetry metrics

Observe’s OTLP endpoint accepts OpenTelemetry metrics. These metrics appear in the OpenTelemetry/Metrics dataset once metric collection is enabled in the OpenTelemetry app settings (“Enable Metrcs” setting in OpenTelemetry app config).

Histogram metrics

OpenTelemetry histogram metrics are not supported. Use the Prometheus Remote Write Exporter to convert your histogram metrics to the Prometheus format and export them to our Prometheus endpoint.

• Configure the Observe Agent to export histogram metrics to Observe.

• Configure the OpenTelemetry Collector to export histogram metrics to Observe.
