Overview

This guide shows you how to integrate Latitude Telemetry into an application that uses the Aleph Alpha SDK (aleph-alpha-client).
You’ll keep calling Aleph Alpha exactly as you do today. Telemetry simply observes and enriches those calls.
Auto-instrumentation for Aleph Alpha is available in the Python SDK. For other languages, send traces via the OpenTelemetry exporter.

​
Requirements

  • A Latitude account and API key
  • A Latitude project slug
  • A project that uses the Aleph Alpha SDK (aleph-alpha-client)
  • An Aleph Alpha API token (set as ALEPH_ALPHA_API_KEY)

​
Steps

1

Install

pip install latitude-telemetry aleph-alpha-client
2

Initialize and use

import os

import aleph_alpha_client
from aleph_alpha_client import Client, CompletionRequest, Prompt

from latitude_telemetry import Latitude, capture

latitude = Latitude(
    api_key="your-api-key",
    project="your-project-slug",
    instrumentations={"aleph_alpha": aleph_alpha_client},
)

def generate_reply():
    client = Client(token=os.environ["ALEPH_ALPHA_API_KEY"])
    request = CompletionRequest(prompt=Prompt.from_text("Hello:"), maximum_tokens=50)
    response = client.complete(request, model="luminous-base")
    return response.completions[0].completion

capture("generate-reply", generate_reply)

latitude.shutdown()

​
Seeing Your Traces

Once connected, traces appear automatically in Latitude:
  1. Open your project in the Latitude dashboard
  2. Each execution shows input/output messages, model, token usage, latency, and errors
