TracingΒΆ

Event Issuer uses Open Telemetry and will deliver a tracing value for every outgoing event.

The standardized way to transmit tracing values is by following the W3 standard by using:

  • traceparent describes the position of the incoming request in its trace graph in a portable, fixed-length format. Its design focuses on fast parsing. Every tracing tool MUST properly set traceparent even when it only relies on vendor-specific information in tracestate
  • tracestate extends traceparent with vendor-specific data represented by a set of name/value pairs. Storing information in tracestate is optional.
