I am trying to process OTEL data using telegraf OTEL input plugin. I have created some sample input files for telemetry i.e. traces, logs and metrics. I have tried with several permutations but following fields are always dropped, they do not appear in the output.
- parentSpanId
- scope.name
- scope.version
- and some other fields
I see that the extraction logic for these fields is visible in the Otel2Influx library. Still, these fields do not appear in the output. When i debug, I see that the fields are lost before the data reaches processor block. It seems to be a bug in the otel2influx conversion library.
Please refer to details of the study (input data, output data, field-wise comparison) from here
PS: This was discussed in the influxdata community here.
