# Appendix D: Observability | ||
|
||
This document describes conventions for extracting data from the OpenFeature SDK for use in telemetry signals. | ||
It primarily focuses on providing recommendations for mapping well-known fields in OpenFeature to [OpenTelemetry feature-flag log records](https://opentelemetry.io/docs/specs/semconv/feature-flags/feature-flags-logs/) and other semantic conventions. | ||
|
||
## Evaluations | ||
|
||
Flag evaluation telemetry comprises data resolved from the provider resolution (evaluation details and flag metadata) as well as metadata about the provider itself. | ||
This is particularly relevant to telemetry-related [hooks](./sections/04-hooks.md). | ||
|
||
### Evaluation Details | ||
|
||
The following describes how fields on the [evaluation details](types.md#evaluation-details) are mapped to feature flag log records: | ||
|
||
| Evaluation Details Field | Log Record Attribute | Notes | | ||
| ------------------------ | --------------------------------------- | ---------------------------------------------------- | | ||
| `flag key` | `feature_flag.key` | See: [flag key](./glossary.md#flag-key) | | ||
| `error code` | `error.type` | See: [error code](./types.md#error-code) | | ||
| `variant`, `value` | `feature_flag.variant` | See: [variant](./glossary.md#variant) | | ||
| `error message` | `feature_flag.evaluation.error.message` | An error message associated with a failed evaluation | | ||
| `reason` | `feature_flag.evaluation.reason` | See: [reason](./types.md#reason) | | ||
|
||
> [!NOTE] | ||
> If the provider in question doesn't supply a `variant`, the a string representation of the `value` is used. | ||
### Flag Metadata | ||
|
||
The following describes how keys in [flag metadata](types.md#flag-metadata) are mapped to feature flag log records: | ||
|
||
| Flag Metadata Key | Log Record Attribute | Notes | | ||
| ----------------- | ------------------------- | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | | ||
| `contextId` | `feature_flag.context.id` | The context identifier returned in the flag metadata uniquely identifies the subject of the flag evaluation. If not available, the [targeting key](./glossary.md#targeting-key) should be used. | | ||
| `flagSetId` | `feature_flag.set.id` | A logical identifier for the [flag set](./glossary.md#flag-set). | | ||
| `flagSetVersion` | `feature_flag.version` | A version string (format unspecified) for the [flag set](./glossary.md#flag-set). | | ||
|
||
> [!NOTE] | ||
> Keys in flag metadata use the "camelCase" casing convention, while the OpenTelemetry standard uses a namespaced "snake_case" convention. | ||
### Provider Metadata | ||
|
||
| Provider Metadata Field | Log Record Attribute | Notes | | ||
| ----------------------- | ---------------------------- | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ | | ||
| `name` | `feature_flag.provider_name` | The name of the provider as defined in the `provider metadata`, available in the `hook context`. | |
