# Instrument Name
|
||||
|
||||
OpenTelemetry defines an [instrument name syntax] that restricts what
|
||||
instrument names are allowed.
|
||||
|
||||
Instrument names should ...
|
||||
|
||||
- Not be empty.
|
||||
- Have an alphabetic character as their first letter.
|
||||
- Have any letter after the first be an alphanumeric character, ‘_’, ‘.’,
|
||||
‘-’, or ‘/’.
|
||||
- Have a maximum length of 255 letters.
|
||||
|
||||
To ensure compatibility with observability platforms, all instruments created
|
||||
need to conform to this syntax. Not all implementations of the API will validate
|
||||
these names, it is the callers responsibility to ensure compliance.
