OTLP/HTTP API

The canonical OTLP ingest contract is OTLP/HTTP API.

View as Markdown Open the plain-text version of this page.

Provon accepts OpenTelemetry traces, logs, and metrics over OTLP/HTTP:

Signal Endpoint
Traces POST https://otel.provon.dev/v1/traces
Logs POST https://otel.provon.dev/v1/logs
Metrics POST https://otel.provon.dev/v1/metrics

Use a project API key with telemetry:ingest:

bash
export OTEL_EXPORTER_OTLP_HEADERS="Authorization=Bearer $PROVON_API_KEY"

Both OTLP protobuf and OTLP JSON are accepted. gzip, deflate, and identity transport encodings are supported. A 200 response is asynchronous acceptance; it means the payload was staged and queued, not that records are queryable yet.

Continue with OTLP/HTTP API for limits, response bodies, status codes, and retry rules.
