This receiver receives spans from Zipkin (V1 and V2).

Getting Started

All that is required to enable the Zipkin receiver is to include it in the receiver definitions.

receivers:
  zipkin:

The following settings are configurable:

• endpoint (default = localhost:9411): host:port on which the receiver is going to receive data.See our security best practices doc to understand how to set the endpoint in different environments. You can review the full list of ServerConfig.
• parse_string_tags (default = false): if enabled, the receiver will attempt to parse string tags/binary annotations into int/bool/float.

Advanced Configuration

Several helper files are leveraged to provide additional capabilities automatically:

• HTTP server settings including CORS
• TLS and mTLS settings
