Getting started with OpenTelemetry
On this page
The OpenTelemetry integration is currently in beta and available for free on all plans.
Need help getting started? We offer a free, 1:1 valet onboarding service to help you instrument your stack with the
correct OpenTelemetry SDKs and enable tracing inside Checkly.

With OpenTelemetry enabled, you will have access to traces in all the places where it matters to more quickly resolve issues:
- Check results: resolve production outages faster by correlating failing checks with backend traces.
- Test sessions: understand any failures during test session execution.
- Check Editors get a live trace while building, editing and debugging check code.
To get started with the Checkly OpenTelemetry integration, pick a scenario that best fits your needs.
I don't have an OpenTelemetry setup
Instrument your app and send traces directly to Checkly. No need for a 3rd party OTel backend.
