Get a span

Deprecated
client.Spans.Get(ctx, spanID) (*Span, error)
GET/v5/spans/{span_id}

Retrieve a single span by its id.

The span is read from the legacy trace store or, for accounts migrated to the tracing service, from that service — with automatic fallback to the legacy trace store on error unless the account is in strict mode, where a tracing-service failure surfaces as a 503. Access is authorized against the span’s parent trace, so a span in a trace the caller cannot read is rejected; an unknown id returns 404. input_tokens and output_tokens carry the token usage the span’s producer reported at ingest, and are absent both for a span that reported none and for every span served from the legacy trace store, which keeps no token counts.

ParametersExpand Collapse
spanID string
ReturnsExpand Collapse
type Span struct{…}
ID string
AccountID string
Name string
StartTimestamp Time
formatdate-time
TraceID string

id for grouping traces together, uuid is recommended

maxLength256
ApplicationInteractionID stringOptional

The interaction ID this span belongs to

ApplicationVariantID stringOptional

The id of the application variant this span belongs to

CreatedBy IdentityOptional

The identity that created the entity.

ID string
Type IdentityType

Expected map[string, any]Optional
GroupID stringOptional

minimum0
Metadata map[string, any]Optional
Object SpanObjectOptional
ObsSpanID stringOptional

W3C span id of the observability span this span executed in.

ObsTraceID stringOptional

W3C trace id of the observability trace this span executed in. Null for spans written without the edge, and for accounts still served by the legacy trace store.

Output map[string, any]Optional
OutputTokens int64Optional

Completion tokens the producer reported for this span, absent when it reported none. Same quantity the output_tokens sort orders by.
