• NuGet: OpenTelemetry.Exporter.OpenTelemetryProtocol v1.12.0

  • Breaking Change: .NET Framework and .NET Standard builds now default to
    exporting over OTLP/HTTP instead of OTLP/gRPC. This change could result in a
    failure to export telemetry unless appropriate measures are taken.
    Additionally, if you explicitly configure the exporter to use OTLP/gRPC it may
    result in a NotSupportedException without further configuration. Please
    carefully review issue
    (#6209)
    for additional information and workarounds.
