Cohere

Overview

This guide shows you how to integrate Latitude Telemetry into an application that uses the Cohere SDK.

You’ll keep calling Cohere exactly as you do today. Telemetry simply observes and enriches those calls.

Requirements

A Latitude account and API key
A Latitude project slug
A project that uses the Cohere SDK

Steps

Install

TypeScript
Python

npm install @latitude-data/telemetry

pnpm add @latitude-data/telemetry

yarn add @latitude-data/telemetry

bun add @latitude-data/telemetry

pip install latitude-telemetry

uv add latitude-telemetry

poetry add latitude-telemetry

Initialize and use

TypeScript
Python

import { Latitude, capture } from "@latitude-data/telemetry"
import { CohereClient } from "cohere-ai"
import * as CohereSDK from "cohere-ai"

const latitude = new Latitude({
  apiKey: process.env.LATITUDE_API_KEY!,
  project: process.env.LATITUDE_PROJECT_SLUG!,
  instrumentations: { cohere: CohereSDK },
})


const client = new CohereClient({ token: process.env.COHERE_API_KEY })

await capture("generate-reply", async () => {
  const response = await client.chat({
    model: "command-a-03-2025",
    message: "Hello",
  })
  return response.text
})

await latitude.shutdown()

import cohere

from latitude_telemetry import Latitude, capture

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

client = cohere.Client()

def generate_reply():
    response = client.chat(
        model="command-a-03-2025",
        message="Hello",
    )
    return response.text

capture("generate-reply", generate_reply)

latitude.shutdown()

Streaming

When streaming, consume the stream inside capture() so the span covers the full operation:

TypeScript
Python

await capture("stream-reply", async () => {
  const stream = await client.chatStream({
    model: "command-a-03-2025",
    message: input,
  })

  for await (const event of stream) {
    if (event.eventType === "text-generation") {
      res.write(event.text)
    }
  }
  res.end()
})

def stream_reply():
    chunks = []
    for event in client.chat_stream(
        model="command-a-03-2025",
        message=input,
    ):
        if event.event_type == "text-generation":
            chunks.append(event.text)
    return "".join(chunks)

capture("stream-reply", stream_reply)

Seeing Your Traces

Once connected, traces appear automatically in Latitude:

Open your project in the Latitude dashboard
Each execution shows input/output messages, model, token usage, latency, and errors
