How to export system logs to collector service?

[shravani154]

Hello, I have an application which uses kafka and couchbase. I have been adding the applications logs as events to the span and exporting them to the collector. Is there any way to export kafka, couchbase, system logs to collector service?

hi @shravani154, the javaagent will instrument log4j, logback and java.util.logging and send those logs to the collector if you configure OTEL_LOGS_EXPORTER
