Configuring an OpenTelemetry Collector for Data Export

Use this guide to configure a generic OpenTelemetry (OTEL) Collector as a destination for UiPath Data Export. This option works with any OTEL-compatible observability platform that accepts OTLP (OpenTelemetry Protocol) over HTTP, including Langsmith, Langfuse, and MLFlow.

Prérequis

• An OTLP-compatible HTTP endpoint.
• An API key or other authentication credentials required by your collector (if applicable).
• Organization Administrator access in UiPath Test Cloud.

Configuring an OpenTelemetry Collector

1. In UiPath Test Cloud, go to Admin and select Data Export.

2. Select + Add.

3. Step 1 – Select tenant: Choose the tenant for this export, then select Next.

4. Step 2 – Select data sources: Select Maestro & Agents, then select Next.

5. Step 3 – Configure destination: Select OpenTelemetry Collector as the connection type and enter the following:

   Champ	Description
   Clé API	The API key required by your OTEL collector, if applicable.
   Endpoint URL	The OTLP HTTP endpoint URL (for example, https://api.example.com).

   Optionally, add Custom Headers to pass vendor-specific metadata:

   1. Sélectionnez Ajouter un en-tête.
   2. Enter the Header Name and Header Value.
   3. Repeat for each header required. Remove a header using the delete icon.
   Remarque :

   Custom header values are encrypted at rest. Test Connection is not available for the OpenTelemetry Collector destination.

6. Step 4 – Review and save: Review the configuration, then select Save.

Result: The new configuration appears in the Data Export table. To verify the setup, trigger any agent run (debug, evaluation, or runtime) or Maestro run, then confirm that traces appear in your observability platform.
