| Visualize the Requests Flow

 | |
| 
 | |
| The tracing system allows developers to visualize call flows in their infrastructure.
 | |
| 
 | |
| Traefik uses [OpenTelemetry](https://opentelemetry.io/ "Link to website of OTel"), an open standard designed for distributed tracing.
 | |
| 
 | |
| ## Configuration Example
 | |
| 
 | |
| To enable the tracing:
 | |
| 
 | |
| ```yaml tab="File (YAML)"
 | |
| tracing: {}
 | |
| ```
 | |
| 
 | |
| ```toml tab="File (TOML)"
 | |
| [tracing]
 | |
| ```
 | |
| 
 | |
| ```bash tab="CLI"
 | |
| --tracing=true
 | |
| ```
 | |
| 
 | |
| ```yaml tab="Helm Chart Values"
 | |
|   tracing:
 | |
|     otlp:
 | |
|         enabled: true
 | |
| ```
 | |
| 
 | |
| ## Configuration Options
 | |
| 
 | |
| | Field                                      | Description                                                                                                                                                                 | Default                            | Required |
