Improving AppSignal, one deploy at a time.

May 15, 2025

Collector v0.6.2

Added

  • When reporting a boolean resource attribute configuration option, such as send_function_parameters, send_request_payload, send_request_query_parameters and send_request_session_data, allow it to be provided as a string containing the case-insensitive values "true" or "false".

    This makes it possible to set these configuration options using the OTEL_RESOURCE_ATTRIBUTES environment variable.

Changed

  • Allow overriding automatically set namespaces. When a namespace is automatically by AppSignal, set it only if a different namespace has not been set in the trace using the appsignal.namespace attribute.
  • Improve communication from the collector's exporter server to the client by returning the expected OpenTelemetry export response messages from the collector's HTTP server. This includes updating the tracing, metrics and logs endpoints by returning their respective response messages.

Fixed

  • Truncate the keys of attributes and the overall size of the attribute list for spans, events, scopes, resources and links.

This release can be installed through our collector packages and Docker image.
