azure-monitor-otel-python

Wires Python applications to Application Insights through the Azure Monitor OpenTelemetry distro: installing and calling configure_azure_monitor, choosing connection strings, credentials, sampling and live metrics, integrating with Flask, Django and FastAPI startup, emitting custom spans, counters and logs, and avoiding the package's common import and parameter mistakes. Use when the user says "add Application Insights to Python", "configure_azure_monitor", "azure-monitor-opentelemetry", "OpenTelemetry distro", or "auto-instrument a Python app". Not for Java, JavaScript or .NET telemetry, for hand-building an exporter pipeline from raw OpenTelemetry SDK parts, or for querying data already stored in Azure Monitor.
