What was reported:
Issue traceloop/openllmetry#93 (closed, 12 comments): ### Which component is this feature for? OpenAI Instrumentation ### 🔖 Feature description In addition to the [destinations currently supported](https://www.traceloop.com/docs/python-sdk/exporting) to catch traces, it would be great to extend and include Azure Application Insights. OpenTelemetry is a key recommendation for almost any solution deployed on Azure as they should be tracking traces and metrics, and it would be great to have native support. I was going to add links to Azure documentation for OTEL + App Insights...
What works:
[drewby (commenter)]: To export Traceloop traces to Azure Application Insights, set the APPLICATIONINSIGHTS_CONNECTION_STRING env var and pass AzureMonitorTraceExporter() to Traceloop.init; you can then omit the connection string from the constructor. The reporter documented this in the docs repo and closed the issue.
