honeycomb/otel · version 1
envs add honeycomb/otelThis declares the keys below in your catalog and sets none of them. A template is a schema for keys; it never carries a value.
| Key | Needed | Kind | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|
HONEYCOMB_API_KEY |
required | secret | Honeycomb shows an ingest key only once and says never to commit it. Its allowance for exposing one is written for browser telemetry, so a server key is treated as secret here.. where to get it |
OTEL_EXPORTER_OTLP_ENDPOINT |
required | config | An address. These are OpenTelemetry's names, which is what Honeycomb documents rather than names of its own.. where to get it |
OTEL_EXPORTER_OTLP_HEADERS |
required | secret | Carries the key as x-honeycomb-team, so it is as sensitive as the key.. where to get it |
OTEL_SERVICE_NAME |
optional | config | What your service is called in Honeycomb.. where to get it |
