Traces

Get Trace or Span Detail

Retrieve detailed trace information with hierarchical span tree, or a specific span within the trace.

Without span_id parameter: Returns the full trace with hierarchical span tree:

Trace metadata (ID, status, duration, context)
Hierarchical tree of all spans
Each span includes timing, status, and type-specific metadata

With span_id parameter: Returns details for a specific span within the trace:

Span metadata (ID, name, type, timing)
Status and error information
Type-specific attributes (model, tokens, tool params, etc.)

Span Hierarchy (full trace): The tree field contains root spans, each with potential children. This recursive structure represents the execution flow:

Agent.run (root)
  ├─ LLM.invoke
  ├─ Tool.execute
  │   └─ LLM.invoke (nested)
  └─ LLM.invoke

Span Types:

AGENT: Agent execution with input/output
LLM: Model invocations with tokens and prompts
TOOL: Tool calls with parameters and results
