Methods

AddOtlpEnvironment(IResource, IConfiguration, IHostEnvironment)

Configures OpenTelemetry in projects using environment variables.

WithOtlpExporter<T>(IResourceBuilder<T>)

Injects the appropriate environment variables to allow the resource to enable sending telemetry to the dashboard.

  1. It sets the OTLP endpoint to the value of the DOTNET_DASHBOARD_OTLP_ENDPOINT_URL environment variable.
  2. It sets the service name and instance id to the resource name and UID. Values are injected by the orchestrator.
  3. It sets a small batch schedule delay in development. This reduces the delay that OTLP exporter waits to sends telemetry and makes the dashboard telemetry pages responsive.
