Baggage is a W3C standard mechanism for propagating key-value pairs across service boundaries in distributed systems. The BaggageSpanProcessor reads baggage entries from the current context when a span starts and adds them as span attributes; the BaggageLogProcessor does the same for log records. Both processors support filtering via custom predicates, so you can control which baggage keys are copied\u2014useful when baggage contains sensitive data that should not appear in all spans.\n\nThe package integrates directly with opentelemetry-api and opentelemetry-sdk, requiring only that you add the processor to your tracer or logger provider. Baggage entries propagated to child spans and external services will be visible in those systems if they also have a baggage processor configured. The documentation explicitly warns against storing sensitive information in baggage, since it will appear in all outgoing HTTP headers from your application.","worth_installing":"Yes. This is an actively maintained, low-friction component of the OpenTelemetry ecosystem with no known vulnerabilities, permissive licensing, and a clear use case for distributed tracing. Install it if you use OpenTelemetry and need to propagate baggage context to spans or logs; skip it if you do not use baggage or do not need automatic context enrichment."},"id":"opentelemetry-processor-baggage","links":{"html":"https://skillfed.io/packages/opentelemetry-processor-baggage","md":"https://skillfed.io/packages/opentelemetry-processor-baggage.md","pypi":"https://pypi.org/project/opentelemetry-processor-baggage/"},"maintenance":{"status":"active"},"meta":{"latest_release":"2026-07-16","license_spdx":"Apache-2.0","license_treatment":"permissive","name":"opentelemetry-processor-baggage","python_support":"supports_current","summary":"OpenTelemetry Baggage Span Processor"},"popularity":{"monthly_downloads":4314347,"position":2332,"tier":"top_5000"},"security":{"n_vulnerabilities":0},"version":"0.65b0"}
