APIM expose W3C tracing trace-id parent-id for get/set

Edwin van de Burgt 91

When there is no incoming traceparent header, APIM generates an traceparent for the backend calls, when using the W3C correlation protocol.

At least read-access to this APIM-generated traceparent (or specifically its trace-id and parent-id) is required, so e.g. you can include a traceparent in a send-request, but this doesn't seem possible.

Unfortunately, the traceparent's trace-id does not match the context.RequestId either.

Please expose the traceparent, preferable through the APIM context object.

Hi @Mike Urnun , I have the same question to have APIM generated traceparent returned from response header (better to get/set from inbound/outbound policy), details from here: https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/answers/questions/627211/get-traceparent-generated-by-apim-and-return-from.html
Would you please share the approach ?
