OpenTelemetry intake API

edit

APM Server supports receiving traces, metrics, and logs over the OpenTelemetry Protocol (OTLP). OTLP is the default transfer protocol for OpenTelemetry and is supported natively by APM Server.

APM Server supports two OTLP communication protocols on the same port:

OTLP/HTTP (protobuf)
OTLP/gRPC

OTLP/gRPC paths

edit

Name	Endpoint
OTLP metrics intake	`/opentelemetry.proto.collector.metrics.v1.MetricsService/Export`
OTLP trace intake	`/opentelemetry.proto.collector.trace.v1.TraceService/Export`
OTLP logs intake	`/opentelemetry.proto.collector.logs.v1.LogsService/Export`

OTLP/HTTP paths

edit

Name	Endpoint
OTLP metrics intake	`/v1/metrics`
OTLP trace intake	`/v1/traces`
OTLP logs intake	`/v1/logs`

See our OpenTelemetry documentation to learn how to send data to the APM Server from an OpenTelemetry agent or OpenTelemetry collector.
