Observe Agent updates

The Observe Agent is released periodically and not on the same timeline as the Observe platform.

Version 2.7.2

  • fix: always default span and RED metrics service resource attributes to empty string

  • fix: improve naming of RED metric attributes

  • fix: use proper attribute name in ottl check for observe.status_code

Version 2.7.1

  • fix: use env as default config resolve schema

Version 2.7.0

  • feat: add an option to generate RED metrics from spans.

  • The traces/forward pipeline now defaults to dropping spans with duration longer than one hour to match Observe Trace Explorer behavior. This can be configured via the forwarding.traces.max_span_duration config option.

Version 2.6.0

What’s new in version 2.6.0:

  • JSON schema for our observe-agent.yaml config file. This makes editing the agent config much easier and safer!

  • New config validate command which we can now use to validate our helm chart output.

  • Added the groupbyattrsprocessor.

  • All bundled config is now part of the build, so no need for all of the extra template files on disk.
