|
+
> Learn how to enable and configure OpenTelemetry for Claude Code.
|
|
8
|
+
|
|
9
|
+
Track Claude Code usage, costs, and tool activity across your organization by exporting telemetry data through OpenTelemetry (OTel). Claude Code exports metrics as time series data via the standard metrics protocol, events via the logs/events protocol, and optionally distributed traces via the [traces protocol](#traces-beta). Configure your metrics, logs, and traces backends to match your monitoring requirements.
|
|
10
|
+
|
|
11
|
+
## Quick start
|
|
12
|
+
|
|
13
|
+
Configure OpenTelemetry using environment variables:
|
|
14
|
+
|
|
15
|
+
```bash theme={null}
|
|
16
|
+
# 1. Enable telemetry
|
|
17
|
+
export CLAUDE_CODE_ENABLE_TELEMETRY=1
|
|
18
|
+
|
|
19
|
+
# 2. Choose exporters (both are optional - configure only what you need)
|
|
20
|
+
export OTEL_METRICS_EXPORTER=otlp # Options: otlp, prometheus, console, none
|
|
21
|
+
export OTEL_LOGS_EXPORTER=otlp # Options: otlp, console, none
|
|
22
|
+
|
|
23
|
+
# 3. Configure OTLP endpoint (for OTLP exporter)
|
|
24
|
+
export OTEL_EXPORTER_OTLP_PROTOCOL=grpc
|
|
25
|
+
export OTEL_EXPORTER_OTLP_ENDPOINT=http://localhost:4317
|
|
26
|
+
|
|
27
|
+
# 4. Set authentication (if required)
|
|
28
|
+
export OTEL_EXPORTER_OTLP_HEADERS="Authorization=Bearer your-token"
|
|
29
|
+
|
|
30
|
+
# 5. For debugging: reduce export intervals
|
|
31
|
+
export OTEL_METRIC_EXPORT_INTERVAL=10000 # 10 seconds (default: 60000ms)
|
|
32
|
+
export OTEL_LOGS_EXPORT_INTERVAL=5000 # 5 seconds (default: 5000ms)
|
|
33
|
+
|
|
34
|
+
# 6. Run Claude Code
|
|
35
|
+
claude
|
|
36
|
+
```
|
|
37
|
+
|
|
38
|
+
<Note>
|
|
39
|
+
The default export intervals are 60 seconds for metrics and 5 seconds for logs. During setup, you may want to use shorter intervals for debugging purposes. Remember to reset these for production use.
|
|
40
|
+
</Note>
|
|
41
|
+
|
|
42
|
+
For full configuration options, see the [OpenTelemetry specification](https://github.com/open-telemetry/opentelemetry-specification/blob/main/specification/protocol/exporter.md#configuration-options).
|
|
43
|
+
|
|
44
|
+
## Administrator configuration
|
|
45
|
+
|
|
46
|
+
Administrators can configure OpenTelemetry settings for all users through the [managed settings file](/en/settings#settings-files). This allows for centralized control of telemetry settings across an organization. See the [settings precedence](/en/settings#settings-precedence) for more information about how settings are applied.
|
|
47
|
+
|
|
48
|
+
Example managed settings configuration:
|
|
49
|
+
|
|
50
|
+
```json theme={null}
|
|
51
|
+
{
|
|
52
|
+
"env": {
|
|
53
|
+
"CLAUDE_CODE_ENABLE_TELEMETRY": "1",
|
|
54
|
+
"OTEL_METRICS_EXPORTER": "otlp",
|
|
55
|
+
"OTEL_LOGS_EXPORTER": "otlp",
|
|
56
|
+
"OTEL_EXPORTER_OTLP_PROTOCOL": "grpc",
|
|
57
|
+
"OTEL_EXPORTER_OTLP_ENDPOINT": "http://collector.example.com:4317",
|
|
58
|
+
"OTEL_EXPORTER_OTLP_HEADERS": "Authorization=Bearer example-token"
|
|
59
|
+
}
|
|
60
|
+
}
|
|
61
|
+
```
|
|
62
|
+
|
|
63
|
+
<Note>
|
|
64
|
+
Managed settings can be distributed via MDM (Mobile Device Management) or other device management solutions. Environment variables defined in the managed settings file have high precedence and cannot be overridden by users.
|
|
65
|

### Metrics cardinality control
|
|
95
|
+
|
|
96
|
+
The following environment variables control which attributes are included in metrics to manage cardinality:
|
|
97
|
+
|
|
98
|
+
| Environment Variable | Description | Default Value | Example to Disable |
|
|
99
|
+
| ----------------------------------- | --------------------------------------------------------------------- | ------------- | ------------------ |
|
|
100
|
+
| `OTEL_METRICS_INCLUDE_SESSION_ID` | Include session.id attribute in metrics | `true` | `false` |
|
|
101
|
+
| `OTEL_METRICS_INCLUDE_VERSION` | Include app.version attribute in metrics | `false` | `true` |
|
|
102
|
+
| `OTEL_METRICS_INCLUDE_ACCOUNT_UUID` | Include user.account\_uuid and user.account\_id attributes in metrics | `true` | `false` |
|
|
103
|
+
|
|
104
|
+
These variables help control the cardinality of metrics, which affects storage requirements and query performance in your metrics backend. Lower cardinality generally means better performance and lower storage costs but less granular data for analysis.
|
|
105
|
+
|
|
106
|
+
### Traces (beta)
|
|
107
|
+
|
|
108
|
+
Distributed tracing exports spans that link each user prompt to the API requests and tool executions it triggers, so you can view a full request as a single trace in your tracing backend.
|
|
109
|
+
|
|
110
|
+
Tracing is off by default. To enable it, set both `CLAUDE_CODE_ENABLE_TELEMETRY=1` and `CLAUDE_CODE_ENHANCED_TELEMETRY_BETA=1`, then set `OTEL_TRACES_EXPORTER` to choose where spans are sent. Traces reuse the [common OTLP configuration](#common-configuration-variables) for endpoint, protocol, and headers.
|
|
111
|
+
|
|
112
|
+
| Environment Variable | Description | Example Values |
|
|
113
|
+
| ------------------------------------- | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | ------------------------------------ |
|
|
114
|
+
| `CLAUDE_CODE_ENHANCED_TELEMETRY_BETA` | Enable span tracing (required). `ENABLE_ENHANCED_TELEMETRY_BETA` is also accepted | `1` |
|
|
115
|
+
| `OTEL_TRACES_EXPORTER` | Traces exporter types, comma-separated. Use `none` to disable | `console`, `otlp`, `none` |
|
|
116
|
+
| `OTEL_EXPORTER_OTLP_TRACES_PROTOCOL` | Protocol for traces, overrides `OTEL_EXPORTER_OTLP_PROTOCOL` | `grpc`, `http/json`, `http/protobuf` |
|
|
117
|
+
| `OTEL_EXPORTER_OTLP_TRACES_ENDPOINT` | OTLP traces endpoint, overrides `OTEL_EXPORTER_OTLP_ENDPOINT` | `http://localhost:4318/v1/traces` |
|
|
118
|
+
| `OTEL_TRACES_EXPORT_INTERVAL` | Span batch export interval in milliseconds (default: 5000) | `1000`, `10000` |
|
|
119
|
+
|
|
120
|
+
Spans redact user prompt text, tool input details, and tool content by default. Set `OTEL_LOG_USER_PROMPTS=1`, `OTEL_LOG_TOOL_DETAILS=1`, and `OTEL_LOG_TOOL_CONTENT=1` to include them.
|
|
121
|
+
|
|
122
|
+
When tracing is active, Bash and PowerShell subprocesses automatically inherit a `TRACEPARENT` environment variable containing the W3C trace context of the active tool execution span. This lets any subprocess that reads `TRACEPARENT` parent its own spans under the same trace, enabling end-to-end distributed tracing through scripts and commands that Claude runs.
|
|
123
|
+
|
|
124
|
+
In Agent SDK and non-interactive sessions started with `-p`, Claude Code also reads `TRACEPARENT` and `TRACESTATE` from its own environment when starting each interaction span. This lets an embedding process pass its active W3C trace context into the subprocess so Claude Code's spans appear as children of the caller's distributed trace. Interactive sessions ignore inbound `TRACEPARENT` to avoid accidentally inheriting ambient values from CI or container environments.
|
|
125
|
+
|
|
126
|
+
#### Span hierarchy
|
|
127
|
+
|
|
128
|
+
Each user prompt starts a `claude_code.interaction` root span. API calls, tool calls, and hook executions are recorded as its children. Tool spans have two child spans of their own: one for the time spent waiting on a permission decision and one for the execution itself. When the Task tool spawns a subagent, the subagent's API and tool spans nest under the parent's `claude_code.tool` span.
|
|
129
|
+
|
|
130
|
+
```text theme={null}
|
|
131
|
+
claude_code.interaction
|
|
132
|
+
├── claude_code.llm_request
|
|
133
|
+
├── claude_code.hook (requires detailed beta tracing)
|
|
134
|
+
└── claude_code.tool
|
|
135
|
+
├── claude_code.tool.blocked_on_user
|
|
136
|
+
├── claude_code.tool.execution
|
|
137
|
+
└── (Task tool) subagent claude_code.llm_request / claude_code.tool spans
|
|
138
|
+
```
|
|
139
|
+
|
|
140
|
+
In Agent SDK and `claude -p` sessions, `claude_code.interaction` itself becomes a child of the caller's span when `TRACEPARENT` is set in the environment.
|
|
141
|
+
|
|
142
|
+
#### Span attributes
|
|
143
|
+
|
|
144
|
+
Every span carries the [standard attributes](#standard-attributes) plus a `span.type` attribute matching its name. The tables below list the additional attributes set on each span. The `llm_request`, `tool.execution`, and `hook` spans set OpenTelemetry status `ERROR` when they record a failure; the other spans always end with status `UNSET`.

Additional content-bearing attributes such as `new_context`, `system_prompt_preview`, `user_system_prompt`, `tool_input`, and `response.model_output` are emitted only when detailed beta tracing is active. They are not part of the stable span schema. `user_system_prompt` additionally requires `OTEL_LOG_USER_PROMPTS=1`. It carries only the system prompt text you provide via the `systemPrompt` SDK option or `--system-prompt` and `--append-system-prompt` flags, truncated at 60 KB, and is emitted once per session rather than per request.

### Dynamic headers
|
|
235
|
+
|
|
236
|
+
For enterprise environments that require dynamic authentication, you can configure a script to generate headers dynamically:
|
|
237
|
+
|
|
238
|
+
#### Settings configuration
|
|
239
|
+
|
|
240
|
+
Add to your `.claude/settings.json`:
|
|
241
|
+
|
|
242
|
+
```json theme={null}
|
|
243
|
+
{
|
|
244
|
+
"otelHeadersHelper": "/bin/generate_opentelemetry_headers.sh"
|
|
245
|
+
}
|
|
246
|
+
```
|
|
247
|
+
|
|
248
|
+
#### Script requirements
|
|
249
|
+
|
|
250
|
+
The script must output valid JSON with string key-value pairs representing HTTP headers:
|
|
251
|
+
|
|
252
|
+
```bash theme={null}
|
|
253
|
+
#!/bin/bash
|
|
254
|
+
# Example: Multiple headers
|
|
255
|
+
echo "{\"Authorization\": \"Bearer $(get-token.sh)\", \"X-API-Key\": \"$(get-api-key.sh)\"}"
|
|
256
|
+
```
|
|
257
|
+
|
|
258
|
+
#### Refresh behavior
|
|
259
|
+
|
|
260
|
+
The headers helper script runs at startup and periodically thereafter to support token refresh. By default, the script runs every 29 minutes. Customize the interval with the `CLAUDE_CODE_OTEL_HEADERS_HELPER_DEBOUNCE_MS` environment variable.
|
|
261
|
+
|
|
262
|
+
### Multi-team organization support
|
|
263
|
+
|
|
264
|
+
Organizations with multiple teams or departments can add custom attributes to distinguish between different groups using the `OTEL_RESOURCE_ATTRIBUTES` environment variable:
|
|
265
|
+
|
|
266
|
+
```bash theme={null}
|
|
267
|
+
# Add custom attributes for team identification
|
|
268
|
+
export OTEL_RESOURCE_ATTRIBUTES="department=engineering,team.id=platform,cost_center=eng-123"
|
|
269
|
+
```
|
|
270
|
+
|
|
271
|
+
These custom attributes will be included in all metrics and events, allowing you to:
|
|
272
|
+
|
|
273
|
+
* Filter metrics by team or department
|
|
274
|
+
* Track costs per cost center
|
|
275
|
+
* Create team-specific dashboards
|
|
276
|
+
* Set up alerts for specific teams
|
|
277
|
+
|
|
278
|
+
<Warning>
|
|
279
|
+
**Important formatting requirements for OTEL\_RESOURCE\_ATTRIBUTES:**
|
|
280
|
+
|
|
281
|
+
The `OTEL_RESOURCE_ATTRIBUTES` environment variable uses comma-separated key=value pairs with strict formatting requirements:
|
|
282
|
+
|
|
283
|
+
* **No spaces allowed**: Values cannot contain spaces. For example, `user.organizationName=My Company` is invalid
|
|
284
|
+
* **Format**: Must be comma-separated key=value pairs: `key1=value1,key2=value2`
|
|
285
|
+
* **Allowed characters**: Only US-ASCII characters excluding control characters, whitespace, double quotes, commas, semicolons, and backslashes
|
|
286
|
+
* **Special characters**: Characters outside the allowed range must be percent-encoded
|
|
287
|
+
|
|
288
|
+
**Examples:**
|
|
289
|
+
|
|
290
|
+
```bash theme={null}
|
|
291
|
+
# ❌ Invalid - contains spaces
|
|
292
|
+
export OTEL_RESOURCE_ATTRIBUTES="org.name=John's Organization"
|
|
293
|
+
|
|
294
|
+
# ✅ Valid - use underscores or camelCase instead
|
|
295
|
+
export OTEL_RESOURCE_ATTRIBUTES="org.name=Johns_Organization"
|
|
296
|
+
export OTEL_RESOURCE_ATTRIBUTES="org.name=JohnsOrganization"
|
|
297
|
+
|
|
298
|
+
# ✅ Valid - percent-encode special characters if needed
|
|
299
|
+
export OTEL_RESOURCE_ATTRIBUTES="org.name=John%27s%20Organization"
|
|
300
|
+
```
|
|
301
|
+
|
|
302
|
+
Note: wrapping values in quotes doesn't escape spaces. For example, `org.name="My Company"` results in the literal value `"My Company"` (with quotes included), not `My Company`.
|
|
303
|
+
</Warning>
|
|
304
|
+
|
|
305
|
+
### Example configurations
|
|
306
|
+
|
|

### Events
|
|
474
|
+
|
|
475
|
+
Claude Code exports the following events via OpenTelemetry logs/events (when `OTEL_LOGS_EXPORTER` is configured):
|
|
476
|
+
|
|
477
|
+
#### Event correlation attributes
|
|
478
|
+
|
|
479
|
+
When a user submits a prompt, Claude Code may make multiple API calls and run several tools. The `prompt.id` attribute lets you tie all of those events back to the single prompt that triggered them.
|
|
480
|
+
|
|
481
|
+
| Attribute | Description |
|
|
482
|
+
| ----------- | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ |
|
|
483
|
+
| `prompt.id` | UUID v4 identifier linking all events produced while processing a single user prompt |
|
|
484
|
+
|
|
485
|
+
To trace all activity triggered by a single prompt, filter your events by a specific `prompt.id` value. This returns the user\_prompt event, any api\_request events, and any tool\_result events that occurred while processing that prompt.
|
|
486
|
+
|
|
487
|
+
<Note>
|
|
488
|
+
`prompt.id` is intentionally excluded from metrics because each prompt generates a unique ID, which would create an ever-growing number of time series. Use it for event-level analysis and audit trails only.

## Interpret metrics and events data
|
|
848
|
+
|
|
849
|
+
The exported metrics and events support a range of analyses:
|
|
850
|
+
|
|
851
|
+
### Usage monitoring
|
|
852
|
+
|
|
853
|
+
| Metric | Analysis Opportunity |
|
|
854
|
+
| ------------------------------------------------------------- | --------------------------------------------------------- |
|
|
855
|
+
| `claude_code.token.usage` | Break down by `type` (input/output), user, team, or model |
|
|
856
|
+
| `claude_code.session.count` | Track adoption and engagement over time |
|
|
857
|
+
| `claude_code.lines_of_code.count` | Measure productivity by tracking code additions/removals |
|
|
858
|
+
| `claude_code.commit.count` & `claude_code.pull_request.count` | Understand impact on development workflows |
|
|
859
|
+
|
|
860
|
+
### Cost monitoring
|
|
861
|
+
|
|
862
|
+
The `claude_code.cost.usage` metric helps with:
|
|
863
|
+
|
|
864
|
+
* Tracking usage trends across teams or individuals
|
|
865
|
+
* Identifying high-usage sessions for optimization
|
|
866
|
+
|
|
867
|
+
<Note>
|
|
868
|
+
Cost metrics are approximations. For official billing data, refer to your API provider (Claude Console, Amazon Bedrock, or Google Cloud Vertex).
|
|
869
|
+
</Note>
|
|
870
|
+
|
|
871
|
+
### Alerting and segmentation
|
|
872
|
+
|
|
873
|
+
Common alerts to consider:
|
|
874
|
+
|
|
875
|
+
* Cost spikes
|
|
876
|
+
* Unusual token consumption
|
|
877
|
+
* High session volume from specific users
|
|
878
|
+
|
|
879
|
+
All metrics can be segmented by `user.account_uuid`, `user.account_id`, `organization.id`, `session.id`, `model`, and `app.version`.
|
|
880
|
+
|
|
881
|
+
### Detect retry exhaustion
|
|
882
|
+
|
|
883
|
+
Claude Code retries failed API requests internally and emits a single `claude_code.api_error` event only after it gives up, so the event itself is the terminal signal for that request. Intermediate retry attempts are not logged as separate events.
|
|
884
|
+
|
|
885
|
+
The `attempt` attribute on the event records how many attempts were made in total. A value greater than `CLAUDE_CODE_MAX_RETRIES` (default `10`) indicates the request exhausted all retries on a transient error. A lower value indicates a non-retryable error such as a `400` response.
|
|
886
|
+
|
|
887
|
+
To distinguish a session that recovered from one that stalled, group events by `session.id` and check whether a later `api_request` event exists after the error.
|
|
888
|
+
|
|
889
|
+
### Event analysis
|
|
890
|
+
|
|
891
|
+
The event data provides detailed insights into Claude Code interactions:
|
|
892
|
+
|
|
893
|
+
**Tool Usage Patterns**: analyze tool result events to identify:
|
|
894
|
+
|
|
895
|
+
* Most frequently used tools
|
|
896
|
+
* Tool success rates
|
|
897
|
+
* Average tool execution times
|
|
898
|
+
* Error patterns by tool type
|
|
899
|
+
|
|
900
|
+
**Performance Monitoring**: track API request durations and tool execution times to identify performance bottlenecks.
|
|
901
|
+
|
|
902
|
+
## Backend considerations
|
|
903
|
+
|
|
904
|
+
Your choice of metrics, logs, and traces backends determines the types of analyses you can perform:
|
|
905
|
+
|
|
906
|
+
### For metrics
|
|
907
|
+
|
|
908
|
+
* **Time series databases (for example, Prometheus)**: Rate calculations, aggregated metrics
|
|
909
|
+
* **Columnar stores (for example, ClickHouse)**: Complex queries, unique user analysis
|
|
910
|
+
* **Full-featured observability platforms (for example, Honeycomb, Datadog)**: Advanced querying, visualization, alerting
|
|
911
|
+
|
|
912
|
+
### For events/logs
|
|
913
|
+
|
|
914
|
+
* **Log aggregation systems (for example, Elasticsearch, Loki)**: Full-text search, log analysis
|
|
915
|
+
* **Columnar stores (for example, ClickHouse)**: Structured event analysis
|
|
916
|
+
* **Full-featured observability platforms (for example, Honeycomb, Datadog)**: Correlation between metrics and events
|
|
917
|
+
|
|
918
|
+
### For traces
|
|
919
|
+
|
|
920
|
+
Choose a backend that supports distributed trace storage and span correlation:
|
|
921
|
+
|
|
922
|
+
* **Distributed tracing systems (for example, Jaeger, Zipkin, Grafana Tempo)**: Span visualization, request waterfalls, latency analysis
|
|
923
|
+
* **Full-featured observability platforms (for example, Honeycomb, Datadog)**: Trace search and correlation with metrics and logs
|
|
924
|
+
|
|
925
|
+
For organizations requiring Daily/Weekly/Monthly Active User (DAU/WAU/MAU) metrics, consider backends that support efficient unique value queries.
|
|
926
|
+
|
|
927
|
+
## Service information
|
|
928
|
+
|
|
929
|
+
All metrics and events are exported with the following resource attributes:
|
|
930
|
+
|
|
931
|
+
* `service.name`: `claude-code`
|
|
932
|
+
* `service.version`: Current Claude Code version
|
|
933
|
+
* `os.type`: Operating system type (for example, `linux`, `darwin`, `windows`)
|
|
934
|
+
* `os.version`: Operating system version string
|
|
935
|
+
* `host.arch`: Host architecture (for example, `amd64`, `arm64`)
|
|
936
|
+
* `wsl.version`: WSL version number (only present when running on Windows Subsystem for Linux)
|
|
937
|
+
* Meter Name: `com.anthropic.claude_code`
|
|
938
|
+
|
|
939
|
+
## ROI measurement resources
|
|
940
|

|
|
941
|
+
For a comprehensive guide on measuring return on investment for Claude Code, including telemetry setup, cost analysis, productivity metrics, and automated reporting, see the [Claude Code ROI Measurement Guide](https://github.com/anthropics/claude-code-monitoring-guide). This repository provides ready-to-use Docker Compose configurations, Prometheus and OpenTelemetry setups, and templates for generating productivity reports integrated with tools like Linear.

943
|
+
## Security and privacy
|
|
944
|
+
|
|
945
|
+
* OpenTelemetry export to your backend is opt-in and requires explicit configuration. For Anthropic's separate operational telemetry and how to disable it, see [Data usage](/en/data-usage#telemetry-services)
|
|
946
|
+
* Raw file contents and code snippets are not included in metrics or events. Trace spans are a separate data path: see the `OTEL_LOG_TOOL_CONTENT` bullet below
|
|
947
|
+
* When authenticated via OAuth, `user.email` is included in telemetry attributes. If this is a concern for your organization, work with your telemetry backend to filter or redact this field
|

* User prompt content is not collected by default. Only prompt length is recorded. To include prompt content, set `OTEL_LOG_USER_PROMPTS=1`

* Tool input arguments and parameters are not logged by default. To include them, set `OTEL_LOG_TOOL_DETAILS=1`. When enabled, `tool_result` events include a `tool_parameters` attribute with Bash commands, MCP server and tool names, and skill names, plus a `tool_input` attribute with file paths, URLs, search patterns, and other arguments. `user_prompt` events include the verbatim `command_name` for custom, plugin, and MCP commands. Trace spans include the same `tool_input` attribute and input-derived attributes such as `file_path`. Individual values over 512 characters are truncated and the total is bounded to \~4 K characters, but the arguments may still contain sensitive values. Configure your telemetry backend to filter or redact these attributes as needed

* Tool input and output content is not logged in trace spans by default. To include it, set `OTEL_LOG_TOOL_CONTENT=1`. When enabled, span events include full tool input and output content truncated at 60 KB per span. This can include raw file contents from Read tool results and Bash command output. Configure your telemetry backend to filter or redact these attributes as needed

* Raw Anthropic Messages API request and response bodies are not logged by default. To include them, set `OTEL_LOG_RAW_API_BODIES`. With `=1`, each API call emits `api_request_body` and `api_response_body` log events whose `body` attribute is the JSON-serialized payload, truncated at 60 KB. With `=file:<dir>`, untruncated bodies are written to `.request.json` and `.response.json` files under that directory and the events carry a `body_ref` path instead of the inline body. Ship the directory with a log collector or sidecar rather than through the telemetry stream. In both modes, bodies contain the full conversation history (system prompt, every prior user and assistant turn, tool results), so enabling this implies consent to everything the other `OTEL_LOG_*` content flags would reveal. Claude's extended-thinking content is always redacted from these bodies regardless of other settings
