Caution
Grafana Agent has reached End-of-Life (EOL) on November 1, 2025. Agent is no longer receiving vendor support and will no longer receive security or bug fixes. Current users of Agent Static mode, Agent Flow mode, and Agent Operator should proceed with migrating to Grafana Alloy. If you have already migrated to Alloy, no further action is required. Read more about why we recommend migrating to Grafana Alloy.

otelcol.receiver.opencensus

otelcol.receiver.opencensus accepts telemetry data via gRPC or HTTP using the OpenCensus format and forwards it to other otelcol.* components.

NOTE: otelcol.receiver.opencensus is a wrapper over the upstream OpenTelemetry Collector opencensus receiver from the otelcol-contrib distribution. Bug reports or feature requests will be redirected to the upstream repository, if necessary.

Multiple otelcol.receiver.opencensus components can be specified by giving them different labels.

Usage

otelcol.receiver.opencensus "LABEL" {
  output {
    metrics = [...]
    logs    = [...]
    traces  = [...]
  }
}
