Description

@fdlGitHub

I have checked the following:

  • I've searched existing issues and found nothing related to my issue.

This feature

  • blocks me from using Bruno
  • would improve my quality of life in Bruno
  • is something I've never seen an API client do before

Describe the feature you want to add, and how it would change your usage of Bruno

Hi,

For distributed tracing purposes — which has become a standard in modern tool integrations — it would be valuable to have tracing support built into Bruno.

Ideally, this would include:

A toggle to enable/disable tracing per request or collection
An option to select the tracing format: legacy x-b3-traceid https://http.dev/x-b3-traceid or the W3C-standardized traceparent https://http.dev/traceparent
Auto-generation of trace/span IDs with proper propagation
Use case: When developing and testing microservices, being able to trace requests end-to-end from Bruno through backend services would greatly improve debugging and observability workflows.

Thanks & Regards
