The tracer is part of the IBM Instana Observability tool set. Compatibility Supported Runtimes ----- - Go Collector v1.73 or later supports Go 1.26 and 1.25 , and maintains compatibility with Go 1.24 (EOL) and Go 1.23 (EOL) . [!NOTE] Make sure to always use the latest version of the tracer, as it provides new features, improvements, security updates and fixes. Installation To add the tracer to your project, run: [!NOTE] As a good practice, add this command to your CI pipeline or your automated tool before building the application to keep the tracer up to date. Usage Initial Setup Once the tracer is added to the project, import the package into the entrypoint file of your application: Create a reference to the collector and initialize it with a service name: [!NOTE] The tracer expects the Instana Agent to be up and running in the default port 42699. You can change the port with the environment variable INSTANA AGENT PORT . [!NOTE] For non default options, like the Agent host and port, the tracer can be configured either via SDK options, environment variables or Agent options.
