The count connector can be used to count spans, data points, or log records.
| Exporter Pipeline Type | Receiver Pipeline Type | Description | Default Metric Name |
|---|---|---|---|
| traces | metrics | Counts the number of spans. | trace.span.count |
| metrics | metrics | Counts the number of log records. | metric.data_point.count |
| logs | metrics | Counts the number of data points. | log.record.count |
If you are not already familiar with connectors, you may find it helpful to first visit the Connectors README.
The count connector may be used with default settings. Optionally, the names of the emitted metrics may be customized.
