CrewAI

Getting Started

CrewAI enables powerful multi-agent coordination for complex AI workflows. Tracing CrewAI with Orq.ai provides comprehensive insights into agent interactions, task execution, tool usage, and crew performance to optimize your multi-agent systems.

Prerequisites

Before you begin, ensure you have:

An Orq.ai account and API Key
CrewAI installed in your project
Python 3.8+
OpenAI API key (or other LLM provider credentials)

Install Dependencies

# OpenTelemetry, crewai, openinference
pip install crewai openinference-instrumentation-crewai
pip install opentelemetry-sdk opentelemetry-exporter-otlp-proto-http

# LLM providers
pip install openai anthropic

# Optional: Advanced tools and integrations
pip install crewai-tools

Configure Orq.ai

Set up your environment variables to connect to Orq.ai's OpenTelemetry collector:

Unix/Linux/macOS:

export OTEL_EXPORTER_OTLP_ENDPOINT="https://api.orq.ai/v2/otel"
export OTEL_EXPORTER_OTLP_HEADERS="Authorization=Bearer <ORQ_API_KEY>"
export OTEL_RESOURCE_ATTRIBUTES="service.name=crewai-app,service.version=1.0.0"
export OPENAI_API_KEY="<YOUR_OPENAI_API_KEY>"

Windows (PowerShell):

$env:OTEL_EXPORTER_OTLP_ENDPOINT = "https://api.orq.ai/v2/otel"
$env:OTEL_EXPORTER_OTLP_HEADERS = "Authorization=Bearer <ORQ_API_KEY>"
$env:OTEL_RESOURCE_ATTRIBUTES = "service.name=crewai-app,service.version=1.0.0"
$env:OPENAI_API_KEY = "<YOUR_OPENAI_API_KEY>"

Using .env file:

OTEL_EXPORTER_OTLP_ENDPOINT=https://api.orq.ai/v2/otel
OTEL_EXPORTER_OTLP_HEADERS=Authorization=Bearer <ORQ_API_KEY>
OTEL_RESOURCE_ATTRIBUTES=service.name=crewai-app,service.version=1.0.0
OPENAI_API_KEY=<YOUR_OPENAI_API_KEY>

Integrations Example

📘
We'll be using OpenInference as TracerProvider with CrewAI

from openinference.instrumentation.crewai import CrewAIInstrumentor
from opentelemetry import trace
from opentelemetry.exporter.otlp.proto.http.trace_exporter import OTLPSpanExporter
from opentelemetry.sdk import trace as trace_sdk
from opentelemetry.sdk.trace.export import BatchSpanProcessor
from crewai import Agent, Task, Crew

# Initialize OpenTelemetry
tracer_provider = trace_sdk.TracerProvider()
tracer_provider.add_span_processor(BatchSpanProcessor(OTLPSpanExporter(
    endpoint="https://api.orq.ai/v2/otel/v1/traces",
    headers={"Authorization": "Bearer <ORQ_API_KEY>"}
)))
trace.set_tracer_provider(tracer_provider)

# Instrument CrewAI
CrewAIInstrumentor().instrument(tracer_provider=tracer_provider)

# Your CrewAI code is automatically traced
researcher = Agent(
    role='Market Research Analyst',
    goal='Gather comprehensive market data and trends',
    backstory='Expert in analyzing market dynamics and consumer behavior'
)

task = Task(
    description='Research the latest trends in AI and machine learning',
    agent=researcher,
    expected_output='Comprehensive report on AI and ML trens with key insights and recommendations'
)

crew = Crew(agents=[researcher], tasks=[task])
result = crew.kickoff()
