What This Skill Does

Azure Monitor OpenTelemetry Distro connects Python applications to Azure Application Insights with a single function call. It auto-instruments popular frameworks like Flask, Django, and FastAPI, plus common libraries for HTTP, databases, and queues. Traces, metrics, and logs all flow to Application Insights without manual SDK wiring. Manually configuring the OpenTelemetry SDK, exporters, and per-library instrumentors requires dozens of lines of setup; this reduces it to one call that handles all of that automatically.
