Using the OpenTelemetry.AutoInstrumentation.PluginApi NuGet package

Use this package to build plugins for OpenTelemetry .NET Automatic Instrumentation. Every plugin must implement OpenTelemetry.AutoInstrumentation.PluginApi.IPlugin and can opt into additional extension points through the telemetry, OpAMP, selective sampling, and continuous profiling interfaces in this package.

The Plugin API does not carry Semantic Versioning compatibility guarantees. Changes may be source or binary incompatible in any release, including a patch release, and do not, by themselves, require a major or minor version bump.

Use the same OpenTelemetry.AutoInstrumentation.PluginApi package version as the OpenTelemetry .NET Automatic Instrumentation version that will load the plugin.

See the plugins documentation for the full API and examples.
