​
Install

pip install openinference-instrumentation-openai-agents openai-agents arize-otel

​
API Key Setup

Add your OpenAI API key as an environment variable. The OpenAI Agents SDK will use this to interact with OpenAI models. 
export OPENAI_API_KEY='your_openai_api_key'

​
Setup

Use the register function to connect your application to Arize and instrument the OpenAI Agents. 
# Import open-telemetry dependencies
from arize.otel import register

# 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="agents"          # As used in the example, or your preferred project name
)

from openinference.instrumentation.openai_agents import OpenAIAgentsInstrumentor
OpenAIAgentsInstrumentor().instrument(tracer_provider=tracer_provider)

​
Run your Agent

Now you can run your openai-agents code as usual. 
from agents import Agent, Runner # Assuming 'agents' package provides these

# Ensure OPENAI_API_KEY is set in your environment

agent = Agent(name="Assistant", instructions="You are a helpful assistant")
result = Runner.run_sync(agent, "Write a haiku about recursion in programming.")
if result:
    print(result.final_output)
else:
    print("Agent execution did not produce a result or failed.")

​
Observe

Once you’ve started your instrumentation, all invocations and steps of your Agent will be sent to your Arize account for observability and evaluation.
