New Relic Integration

GQLForge can export telemetry data directly to New Relic using their OTLP ingestion endpoint.

Configuration

New Relic accepts OTLP data over HTTP. Configure the exporter with your license key:

schema
@server(port: 8000)
@telemetry(
  export: {
    otlp: {
      url: "https://otlp.nr-data.net:4317"
      headers: [
        { key: "api-key", value: "{{.env.NEW_RELIC_LICENSE_KEY}}" }
      ]
    }
  }
) {
  query: Query
}

Environment Variables

Set your New Relic license key before starting the server:

export NEW_RELIC_LICENSE_KEY="your-license-key-here"

Viewing Data in New Relic

After configuration, telemetry data appears in:

• Distributed Tracing: View end-to-end traces for GraphQL operations.
• APM: Monitor service health, throughput, and error rates.
• Metrics: Query custom metrics via NRQL.

EU Region

If your New Relic account is in the EU datacenter, use the EU endpoint:

@telemetry(
  export: {
    otlp: {
      url: "https://otlp.eu01.nr-data.net:4317"
      headers: [
        { key: "api-key", value: "{{.env.NEW_RELIC_LICENSE_KEY}}" }
      ]
    }
  }
)

Refer to the Telemetry page for additional exporter options.
