Quickstart

Target: your first trace landing in your GreenSlope tenant in under five minutes. Every quickstart ends with a verification step that confirms the trace made it.

Pick your stack:

Don't see your stack? Ruby on Rails ships in V1.5 on demand — email support@greenslope.io and we'll get you a preview. Other languages: open an issue via the same address; we prioritise by customer demand.

What every quickstart does

Each quickstart takes you through the same four moves:

  1. Install the standard OpenTelemetry SDK for your language. There is no GreenSlope-branded SDK; you use the upstream OTel packages.
  2. Set three resource attributes: service.name, service.version, and greenslope.release.id. These are what let us attribute errors back to a deploy.
  3. Point the OTLP exporter at https://ingest.greenslope.io/v1/otel.
  4. Verify that a trace reached your tenant by loading the dashboard and checking the live-traces view.
