Trace Semantic Kernel raw payload to/from Azure OpenAI services

Question

Hi All

I have tried to look at the Semantic Kernel C# library.

Wonder if there is way to see the actual payload from Semantic Kernel library to Azure OpenAI.

For example, in below code blow, how do i see the full http payload sent to openai serivce.

        static async Task Main(string[] args)
        {
            IKernelBuilder builder = Kernel.CreateBuilder();
            builder.AddAzureOpenAIChatCompletion(
                deploymentName: "your-deployment-name",
                endpoint: "your-azure-openai-endpoint",
                apiKey: "your-azure-openai-api-key"
            );

            Kernel kernel = builder.Build();

            var answer = await kernel.InvokePromptAsync(                 
				"questione?"             
			);

            Console.WriteLine(answer);
        }

Yes, it is possible to add a logger to the kernel. Try out the code below.

There are more details about the Semantic Kernel Observability here.

https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/semantic-kernel/enterprise-readiness/observability/telemetry-with-console?tabs=Powershell-CreateFile%2CEnvironmentFile&pivots=programming-language-csharp

using var loggerFactory = LoggerFactory.Create(builder => {
     builder.AddOpenTelemetry(options =>
    {
        options.SetResourceBuilder(resourceBuilder);
        options.AddConsoleExporter(); 
        options.IncludeFormattedMessage = true;
        options.IncludeScopes = true;
    });
    builder.SetMinimumLevel(LogLevel.Information);
});

IKernelBuilder builder = Kernel.CreateBuilder(); 
builder.Services.AddSingleton(loggerFactory);
builder.AddAzureOpenAIChatCompletion( deploymentName: "your-deployment-name", endpoint: "your-azure-openai-endpoint", apiKey: "your-azure-openai-api-key" ); 

Kernel kernel = builder.Build(); 
var answer = await kernel.InvokePromptAsync( "question?" ); 
Console.WriteLine(answer);
