Components supported by the Python Library
Verify the following to ensure the library can collect and transmit data:
-
The platform where your APM library will be installed is supported.
-
Your firewall configuration permits TCP/HTTPS/TLS outbound connections to
apm.collector.xx-yy.cloud.solarwinds.com
(wherexx-yy
is determined by the URL you use to access SolarWinds Observability, described in Data centers and endpoint URIs) using port443
. See Firewall or access control requirements.If your firewall or access control requirements do not allow such connections, configure the library to send data through a proxy.
Since the SolarWinds Observability Python Library is a custom distro based on OpenTelemetry, it supports the same versions, libraries, and frameworks as the OpenTelemetry Python instrumentation. See the list of supported package versions in the opentelemetry-python-contrib GitHub repo.
