New Relic configuration of OTLP exporter
Configure the New Relic exporter for metrics
This metrics exporter is a configuration of the OTLP exporter to use with New Relic.
For general tracing configuration, refer to Router Metrics Configuration.
New Relic configuration
To configure the router, enable the OTLP exporter with temporality: delta
and the appropriate endpoint and New Relic API key.
note
For New Relic,
temporality: delta
must be set and the value of the endpoint
must end with /v1/metrics
. The example below uses a common default for New Relic. Check your New Relic account to verify the correct value as the actual domain may vary by region.For example:
YAML
router.yaml
1telemetry:
2 exporters:
3 metrics:
4 otlp:
5 enabled: true
6 protocol: grpc
7
8 # Temporality MUST be set to delta. Failure to do this will result in incorrect metrics.
9 temporality: delta
10
11 # Ensure the endpoint provided ends with "/v1/metrics"
12 # Be sure to use the correct URL for your region.
13 endpoint: https://otlp.nr-data.net:4317/v1/metrics
14 grpc:
15 metadata:
16 api-key: "<new-relic-api-key>"
