# Prompt flow

> Create flows using Microsoft Prompt flow and send their traces to the Arize AX platform. Traces are fully OpenTelemetry compatible and can be sent to any OpenTelemetry collector for viewing.

This integration will allow you to trace [Microsoft PromptFlow](https://github.com/microsoft/promptflow) flows and send their traces into Arize AX.

  <Tab title="Python">
    ```bash theme={null}
    pip install arize-otel promptflow
    ```

    Import `arize_otel` and other dependencies required for setup.

    ```python theme={null}
    import os
    from arize.otel import register, Endpoint
    from opentelemetry.sdk.environment_variables import OTEL_EXPORTER_OTLP_ENDPOINT
    from promptflow.tracing._start_trace import setup_exporter_from_environ
    ```

    Set up OpenTelemetry using our convenience function: `register` with your Arize AX credentials.

    ```python theme={null}
    # Setup OTel via our convenience function
    tracer_provider = register(
        space_id = "your-space-id", # in app space settings page
        api_key = "your-api-key", # in app space settings page
        project_name = "your-project-name", # name this to whatever you would like
    )
    ```

    Then set up the OpenTelemetry endpoint to be Arize AX and use Prompt flow's `setup_exporter_from_environ` to start tracing any further flows and LLM calls.

    ```java theme={null}
    os.environ[OTEL_EXPORTER_OTLP_ENDPOINT] = Endpoint.ARIZE
    setup_exporter_from_environ()
    ```

    Proceed with creating Prompt flow flows as usual.
