Lucas Gomide f523a7d029 docs: udpate docs to reflect new state of OpenTelemetry collector (#6100)
* docs: udpate docs to reflect new state of OpenTelemetry collector

* docs: add OTel collector and Datadog screenshots

These images are referenced by the capture_telemetry_logs guides but were
missing from the tree, which broke the link checker across all locales.

* docs: address PR review on OTel collector guide

- Clarify that OpenTelemetry Traces and Logs are separate integrations
  sharing the same fields (resolves Traces/Logs wording inconsistency)
- List regional Datadog OTLP hosts (US1/US3/US5/EU1/AP1) so users outside
  US5 can copy the right domain

CrewAI AMP can export OpenTelemetry **traces** and **logs** from your deployments directly to your own collector. This lets you monitor agent performance, track LLM calls, and debug issues using your existing observability stack.
Telemetry data follows the [OpenTelemetry GenAI semantic conventions](https://opentelemetry.io/docs/specs/semconv/gen-ai/) plus additional CrewAI-specific attributes.
## Prerequisites
<CardGroup cols={2}>
<Card title="CrewAI AMP account" icon="users">
Your organization must have an active CrewAI AMP account.
</Card>
<Card title="OpenTelemetry collector" icon="server">
You need an OpenTelemetry-compatible collector endpoint (e.g., your own OTel Collector, Datadog, Grafana, or any OTLP-compatible backend).
</Card>
</CardGroup>
## Setting up a collector
1. In CrewAI AMP, go to **Settings** > **OpenTelemetry Collectors**.
2. Click **Add Collector**.
3. Select an integration:
- **OpenTelemetry Traces** and **OpenTelemetry Logs** — export to any OTLP-compatible collector or backend.
- **Datadog** — send traces straight to Datadog's OTLP intake, no separate collector or Datadog Agent required.
4. Configure the connection. The fields depend on the integration you selected:
<Tabs>
<Tab title="OpenTelemetry Traces / Logs">
**OpenTelemetry Traces** and **OpenTelemetry Logs** are separate integrations that share the same fields — pick the one matching the signal you want to export.
- **Endpoint** — Your collector's OTLP endpoint (e.g., `https://otel-collector.example.com:4317`).
- **Service Name** — A name to identify this service in your observability platform.
- **Custom Headers** *(optional)* — Add authentication or routing headers as key-value pairs.
- **Certificate** *(optional)* — Provide a TLS certificate if your collector requires one.

</Tab>
<Tab title="Datadog">
- **Datadog Site Domain** — Your Datadog site's OTLP host only, with no protocol or path. CrewAI builds the full HTTPS OTLP endpoint for you. Use the host that matches your [Datadog site](https://docs.datadoghq.com/getting_started/site/):
- `otlp.datadoghq.com` (US1)
- `otlp.us3.datadoghq.com` (US3)
- `otlp.us5.datadoghq.com` (US5)
- `otlp.datadoghq.eu` (EU1)
- `otlp.ap1.datadoghq.com` (AP1)
- **API Key** — Your Datadog API key. See [how to create one](https://docs.datadoghq.com/account_management/api-app-keys/#api-keys).
The Datadog integration exports **traces**.

</Tabs>
5. *(optional)* Click **Test Connection** to verify CrewAI can reach the endpoint with the credentials you provided.
6. Click **Save**.
<Tip>
You can add multiple collectors — for example, one for traces and another for logs, or send to different backends for different purposes.
