:Endpoints and authentication

Last Updated:May 19, 2026

Managed Service for OpenTelemetry ingests data from open source clients, including OpenTelemetry SDKs and Collectors, Jaeger SDKs and Agents, Zipkin, and Skywalking. This topic describes the service endpoints for each region, the protocols supported on each port, and how to get an authentication token.

Endpoints by region

Note

If your application is deployed on Alibaba Cloud, use the Alibaba Cloud private endpoint. Otherwise, use the public endpoint.

Obtain an authentication token

After you activate Managed Service for OpenTelemetry, you must get a token from the console to authenticate your data.

New console

  1. Log on to the Managed Service for OpenTelemetry console. In the left-side navigation pane, click Integration Center.

  2. In the Open Source Frameworks section, click the card for your client, for example, OpenTelemetry.

  3. In the panel that appears, go to the Start Integration tab. Select a region, set the Connection Method to Alibaba Cloud Private Network or Public Network, and set the Reporting Method to HTTP or gRPC. In the Access Point Information section, find the endpoint URL, which contains your token.

    Note
    • For OpenTelemetry HTTP, Zipkin HTTP, and Jaeger HTTP, the token is part of the HTTP URL.

    • For Skywalking gRPC, OpenTelemetry gRPC, and Jaeger gRPC, provide the token as Authentication=<token> in the gRPC metadata for server-side authentication.

Old console

  1. Log on to the Managed Service for OpenTelemetry console.

  2. In the left-side navigation pane, click Cluster Configurations, and then click the Access Point Information tab.

  3. At the top of the page, select the region to which you want to connect. In the Cluster Information section, enable the Show Token switch.

  4. In the Client section, click the client that you want to use, for example, OpenTelemetry.

    The Related Information column shows the access point information for the selected region. For reporting data over HTTP, the URLs for the public endpoint and Alibaba Cloud VPC endpoint include the path /adapt_xxx/api/otlp/traces and your token. For reporting data over gRPC, this section lists the public endpoint (port 8090), VPC endpoint (port 8090), and the authentication token. If you use Go to report data, remove the http:// prefix from the endpoint.

    Note
    • For OpenTelemetry HTTP, Zipkin HTTP, and Jaeger HTTP, the token is part of the HTTP URL.

    • For Skywalking gRPC, OpenTelemetry gRPC, and Jaeger gRPC, provide the token as Authentication=<token> in the gRPC metadata for server-side authentication.
