Grafana Alloy

Oodle has native support for Open Telemetry Traces.

To send traces to Oodle from Grafana Alloy, you will need the following:

  • OODLE_INSTANCE: Your Oodle instance ID. Go to Settings icon -> API Keys page in your Oodle UI to find out. (Oodle UI links: ap1, us1)
  • OODLE_API_KEY: Your Oodle API key for authentication. Go to Settings icon -> API Keys in your Oodle UI to choose an appropriate key. (Oodle UI links: ap1, us1)

Alloy Configuration​

You can add a otelcol.exporter.otlphttp component to your Alloy configuration to send traces to Oodle:

// Example of existing traces exporter: Jaeger via OTLP (for local debugging)
otelcol.exporter.otlp "jaeger" {
  client {
    endpoint = "jaeger:4317"
    tls {
      insecure = true
    }
    compression = "gzip"
  }
}

otelcol.exporter.otlphttp "oodle_traces" {
  client {
    endpoint = "https://<OODLE_INSTANCE>.collector.oodle.ai"
    headers = {
      "X-OODLE-INSTANCE" = "<OODLE_INSTANCE>",
      "X-API-KEY" = "<OODLE_API_KEY>",
    }
    compression = "gzip"
  }
  
  traces_endpoint = "https://<OODLE_INSTANCE>.collector.oodle.ai/v1/otlp/traces"
}

// Example of existing traces processor
otelcol.processor.attributes "add_environment" {
  action {
    // Existing config
  }

  output {
    traces = [
      otelcol.exporter.otlp.jaeger.input,
      otelcol.exporter.otlphttp.oodle_traces.input,
    ]
  }
}
