# 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.
