Openai Tracing
This guide demonstrates how to use Arize for monitoring and debugging your LLM using Traces and Spans. You can read more about LLM tracing here. In this tutorial, you will use opentelemetry and openinference to instrument our application in order to send traces to Arize.
âšī¸ This notebook requires:
- An OpenAI API key
- An Arize Space & API Key
Step 1: Install Dependencies đ
Let's get the notebook setup with dependencies.
Step 2: Get your API Keys
Copy the Arize API_KEY and SPACE_ID from your Space Settings page (shown below) to the variables in the cell below.

Step 3. Add our tracing code
We will be using the arize-otel package to register the URL and authentication parameters to send to Arize using OpenTelemetry. You can see what's under the hood by looking here.
Step 4: Run your LLM application
Let's test our app by asking OpenAI to write a haiku.
Great! Our application works!
Step 5: Log into Arize and explore your application traces đ
Log into your Arize account, and look for the project with the same project_name.
