Manual Instrumentation

How to manually create and export traces

Phoenix and OpenInference use the OpenTelemetry Trace API to create spans. Because Phoenix supports OpenTelemetry, this means that you can perform manual instrumentation, no LLM framework required! This guide will help you understand how to create and customize spans using the OpenTelemetry Trace API.

Example OTEL Spans

Below are example OTEL spans for each OpenInference spanKind to be used as reference when doing manual instrumentation
