Getting Started

You can get help Getting Started with OpenTelemetry for C++ by referring to the official documentation (opens in a new tab). You need to configure the OTLP exporter to ensure the trace data reaches your Logit.io Stack.

OTLP HTTP Exporter settings:

#include "opentelemetry/exporters/otlp/otlp_https_exporter_factory.h"
#include "opentelemetry/exporters/otlp/otlp_https_exporter_options.h"
 
namespace otlp = opentelemetry::exporter::otlp;
 
otlp::OtlpHttpExporterOptions opts;
opts.url = "https://@opentelemetry.endpointAddress:@opentelemetry.httpsPort";
opts.http_headers = "Authorization=Basic @opentelemetry.base64encodedAuthString";
 
auto exporter = otlp::OtlpHttpExporterFactory::Create(opts);

For more information about exporter configuration with C++ please refer to the documentation (opens in a new tab).
