NeMo Studio Traces
Use Observability > Traces in the NeMo Studio workspace sidebar to inspect telemetry ingested from agent runs.
Traces is enabled by default. An administrator can disable it by setting studio.feature_flags.intake_enabled: false in the platform configuration and restarting Studio.
Traces and Spans Tables
The Traces and Spans tabs list ingested telemetry at different granularity:
Select a row in either table to open the session it belongs to.
Session Detail
The session detail page shows a summary header, then the selected trace’s spans. Use the Tree / List toggle to switch between a nested span tree and a flat list, and Collapse all / Expand all to manage the tree view.
Selecting a span opens its detail body. Studio renders a specialized view for known span kinds — LLM, tool, agent, chain, embedding, reranker, retriever, guardrail, and evaluator — and falls back to a generic view for unrecognized kinds. Each span body includes metadata, an annotations panel, and a raw JSON view for debugging.
Evaluation test-case runs reuse this same session detail view; see Compare Runs Side by Side in NeMo Studio Experiments.
